Managing data source connections inside an Excel workbook for deployment reasons

Hi,
with a certain frequency, I use Excel to show SQL Server data, or SSAS data, etc. in tables, pivot tables, ...
So, a single Excel workbook can contain more connections and ofter a same connection is used.
When an Excel is deployed to a prod environment from a test environment an issue it to update each data source connections by specifing the prod server and/or the prod instance. To avoid to accomplish the boring task to change each single connection,
is it possible to perform it in a more simple or automatic manner?
Any ideas, please?
Thanks

Hey pscorca,
When you deployed Excel files to a product environment, why did you need to change the data source? Did you move SQL server DB and SSAS DB to the product environment too?
And when you click Data->From SQL Server/From AS ,then Excel should create a Office data connection file which is usually saved in: C:\Users\Username\Documents\My Data Sources . If you have multiple Excel files need to use the same connection,
you can choose the Existing Connections, then select the odc file. If you want to change your connections, you just need to Edit the .odc file.

ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified in windows server 2008 r2

ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified in windows server 2008 r2.I made a application in asp.net c#.I am using ODBC connection.When I deployed my application in windows server2008 r2.There
is no Microsoft ODBC driver shown in ODBC Data source administrator.Then I go to the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 and open Odbcad32.exe and add Microsoft ODBC2 driver for Oracle and when I run my application I got following error
ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
I am using follwoing string
<connectionStrings>
<add name="theconnetion" connectionString="DSN=abdb;UID=abc;PWD=xyz"/>
</connectionStrings>
Guide me What I do?

Did you add a System DSN or a User DSN? If you added a User DSN from your own login, the asp.net application will not be able to use it unless its application Pool in IIS is configured to run under the same credentials that you used for creating
the DSN. It's better if you add a System DSN.
Also, be careful to ensure that you are using a 64 bit DSN, unless you configure the application to run in 32 bits. If the 64 bit application attempts to use the 32 bit driver you get the same error message "Data source name not found and no default
driver specified". See this KB article:

SQL Server Reporting Services: ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

Hey everyone, So I am trying to get a report onto the server, and in BIDS I kept getting a login screen repeating over and over when I tried to deploy my report, so I tried to upload the file at http://<servername>/Reports This worked, but then trying
to run this report from http://<servername>/Reports did not work either because "An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Cannot create a connection to data source 'FTYDataSource'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection) For more information
about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors" Anyways I tried to add a New Data Source (which I would use in the report) at http://<servername>/Reports, type ODBC, with the connection string Dsn=blah_blahblah.
I try to test the connection here and get the error ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified This is really getting old fast, everything I try, a new error comes up. Granted I am new at this,
but this still should not be this troublesome. Does anyone have any ideas on what could FINALLY allow me to just put a report out onto the server?!? THANK YOU in advance for ANY help.

Hi,
Please try setting the credentials of the datasource.
1. Double click and open the datasource in your project.
2. Click on the credentials tab, and click on option button 'Use this username and password'
3. Enter the username and password to connect to the datasource
4. Deploy or upload the datasource to the report server and try accessing the reports.
Hope this helps.

Linked Server [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

Hi I have SQL2012 installed on my local machine and have also installed MySQL 5.6.23 installed with a test database.
I also have my SQL connector installed and MYSQL ODBC Driver 3.51.
Which happily connects to the Mysqldb.
The Datasource Name : mySQL conn
TCP/IP Server : localhost and Port :3306
User root
with pwd
On the SQL side I have used the following
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver
@server = N'MYSQLSRV',
@srvproduct=N'mySQL conn',
@provider=N'MSDASQL',
@datasrc=N'mySQL conn'
However when I try to selet using open query
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY ( [MYSQLSRV], 'SELECT * FROM students' )
it comes back with
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "MYSQLSRV" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "MYSQLSRV".
I cant understand what I have done wrong . Any help in this would be great as Ive hit a bit of a brick wall

Hi Robert3975,
In addition to other post, please also note the following things.
1. If you use the 32-bit driver on a 64-bit machine, please run the 32bit version of "odbcad32.exe" by running "c:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe"
from Start/Run menu and
create your ODBC DSN. However, for the 64-bit driver, use c:\windows\system32\odbcad32.exe to create your ODBC DSN. For more details, please review this similar
thread.
2. Expand the folder Providers under Linked server directory in SSMS and go to properties of MSDASQL provider and configure it properly as described in this blog:
Creating Linked server to MYSQL from SQL Server.
Thanks,

Hi again Aravind,
I hope you're not beginning to wish you had never answered that first question from me since it seems as if I'm now backing up the truck with regard to the entire question. If I'm asking too much from you let me know I don't wanna overstep the line with repect to what should and shouln't be asked in these forums'
anyway I looked in that env.sh script. It was huge (pity I can't attach the file, I've appended it but it makes these threads somewhat lengthy)

Factory-class in data-sources.xml managed-data-source

OracleAS_1\j2ee\home\config has

For connection-pool, connection-factory factory-class If I use OracleDriver instead of OracleDataSource, what difference would it have? In terms of performance?

Change all reports data source connection

I have numerous SQL reports that require their data source connection changed. Does anyone have code to change all reports that use a data source name of 'Data_Warehouse_Main' to a different shared connection.
Thanks

Hi BiscuitB,
According to your description, there are numerous SQL reports and their data source need to be changed. You used RSScripter but it does not work.
In Reporting Services, if we want to change data sources of multiple SSRS Report, we can use Powershell to set the data sources for an item in a report server database or SharePoint library. To achieve your goal, we need to use both the Reporting Service
GetItemDataSources Method and the SetItemDataSources Method. You can refer to the thread provided by PrajapatiNeha, and the PowerShell script sample will be helpful for you.
Reference:
GetItemDataSources Method
SetItemDataSources Method
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

SmartView 11.1.1.2 Data Source Connection Manager is Disabled.

I recently did a fresh install of Oracle Hyperion EPM 11.1.1.2 in a Windows 2003 Enterprise Server (64-bit) environment.
I'm now having problems running Smart View in this environment.
When I attempt to connect to a cube, from within Excel, the Data Source Manager appears in the right-hand pane, but I can't interact with it. Also, nothing at all appears in the Data Source Manager pane.
I've duplicated this problem in a Windows 7 RC1 64-bit environment as well (Yes, I know. It's not supported).
This looks like some sort of Active X issue.
I am running Office 2007 SP1. However, applying the latest MS Office updates did not alleviate the issue. I also enabled macros and active x controls through the "Trust Center", but that did not help either.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Alan Farkas

Hello all,
Nice to know misery has lots of company. Having the same problem. I've gotten lots of suggestions and have tried everything short of reinstalling OS. The strange thing is that it was working at initially but my laptop crashed and I reinstalled everything. This problem appeared after the reinstall.
I'll keep trying and will let you know if the OS reinstall does the trick...
If anyone else comes up with something better - please post.
Thanks,

Preserving Named Tables as Pivot Table data sources after copying to new workbook (Excel 2010)

Have 2010 Excel Workbook with Named Tables and child Pivot Tables and several other support sheets. I want to make a 'working' file -- with only copies of these Named Tables and Pivot Table
structures, and then I would populate the copied Tables with the 'real data' and crunch the numbers I need in this new working file.
I need to use VBA for this transformation (which I've tried).
Problem -- Upon copying the Named Table [Table1] and Pivot Tables [Pivot11] and [Pivot12] to the new stand-alone file, WORKING.xlsm, the Pivot Tables only recognize the Tables in the source file (I.e. the data source for Pivot11 is C:\...\'SOURCE.xlsm'!Table1),
and not simply Table1 in the new stand-alone file.
Longhand changing of the Data Source for each Pivot Table [Table1] from 'C:\...\SOURCE.xlsm'!Table1 to simply Table1 seems to be disallowed from all angles.
Anyone have clean VBA code that will copy the parent Named Table and its child Pivot Tables to an external .xlsm file without the absolute links back to the original source file ?

Hi Jon,
How do you change the data source?
Base on my test, we can change the data source by using this code below:
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").ChangePivotCache ActiveWorkbook. _
PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
"[path]!Table4" _
, Version:=xlPivotTableVersion15)
To copy and paste the Named Table and Pivot Tables, we could use
Range.Copy and
Range.PasteSpecial method.
To check whether the Pivot Tables parent is specify Named Table, we could check
PivotTable.SourceData property.

Managing Data Source on a Report

Post Author: sliese
CA Forum: Upgrading and Licensing
Hi - I am wondering if there is a way to quickly change the datasource for a report. Set Data Source Location seems a bit too bulky. I would like to manage the datasource in a separate file (kind of like in other languages when you can have an XML file that defines the datasource and you can easily change the connection by editing the XML file)...I looked into OLE DB Data Link Files (UDL) and managed to connect my report with the UDL. But when I changed the DB that the UDL pointed to, it did not change the report. Once the report connected to the UDL, it was fixed. Any thoughts or ideas? -Stephanie

look into adding a command. (stolen from the CR help file)
The Add Command to Report dialog box appears when you double-click Add Command in the Database Expert. The Add Command option is found in the connection folder for an active Database Files or ODBC (RDO) data source.
Use this dialog box to write your own SQL command (query) which will be represented in Crystal Reports as a Table object.

Retrieve data source connection string from reportserver.dbo.DataSource

I would like to retrieve the connection string (and credentials) for each of my data sources (without having to click on each individual item). The DataSource table has a column called ConnectionString, but the data type is image, which cannot be converted to varchar. Does anyone have any ideas of how to pull this information from the database?
I have tried converting to binary/varbinary, and then converting to varchar, but I get garbage back.
Note: I am currently using SSRS 2005
Thanks,
Marianne

Hi Jin,
I downloaded your script and was impressed with the information it retrieves, however, it is not formatted very well with the name of each data source being on the same line as the previous data source so I updated the script to create a blank line between
each data source block, and also to include the login credentials used by the data source, and the path for the data source, which is very useful in being able to locate the data source for editing in Report Manager. However, it is not retrieving all data
sources and I don't know why. I know this for a fact because there are data sources defined that are not in the output of this script but I don't know enough about VB to improve the script further, or how the report server is configured to ensure the code
finds the missing data sources.
Here's the updated script.

rs -i GetPropertiesOfDataSources.rss -s

But as I mentioned it is not picking up all of the data sources and I don't know why. I also don't know why it's so difficult to find all the data sources from within Report Manager. I'm new to SSRS but was told that prior to SQL 2005, this information was
easily available using Management Studio to connect to the report server but now it's buried in the Report Manager and not accessible from one spot. Bad move by Microsoft apparently. You'd think that there would be an easy way to find all of the data sources.
We need to migrate the SQL Servers on which reports are running, but we have tons of reports and, historically, little documentation for them so we need to be able to determine where all the data sources are so we know which to update. This is proving extremely
difficult. Your script helps but is not comprehensive.
Any and all help is appreciated.

SharePoint 2010 Report using a Shared Data Source Connection file (.rsds) is forcibly closed.

Hi -
When attempting to render a report (.rdl) in a SharePoint 2010 document library that has a
Connection Type specified as a Shared data source (the connection succeeds when tested in the SharedDataSource.aspx page), the following error message is displayed in the report:
The data source that I'm using passes the test when tested in isolation but when used in the report it yields to the error message above. Below are some of the details of the .rsds file:
For this particular Web Application, Kerberos has been enabled. I couldn't spot any traces in ULS nor in the Security Windows logs.
Any feedback on how to fix this issue is appreciated.

Help creating applescript to select email data and insert in existing Excel workbook

Hi there
I'd really appreciate some help.
I want to select three types of data, specifically Name, Email address, and a Date, from the body text of emails in Mac Mail, and export them into columns in an existing Excel workbook.
I've set up a rule in Mail based on the sender, and specified an Applescript action based on the script below. I've sent test emails to meet the rule conditions, and included in the body of these emails the text items below to trigger the script rules, but the Applescript doesn't do anything.

my variables are global for all data providers since I use the same query for my data providers.
It's just the values (some of them : ex: conso version) that differ from one data provider to another.
ex : here for 2 diff Data providers based on the same query i need to enter the following values for mandatory variables
Different versions / different years but same conso group / data entry year/ posting period.
i would like to have the possibility to enter these values out of the "select values for variable" window (not convenient when we have 7 or 8 DP...), but directly in the workbook.
But maybe this is not possible...
In DP1
conso version = A_PL
conso group = FR01
data entry year = 9999
fiscal year = 2010
Posting period = 12
In DP2
Conso version = P4_MAG
Conso group = FR01
Data entry year = 9999
fiscal year =2011
Posting period = 12
