reporting-services

I would like to write a Reporting Services "Expression" that basically behaves as the following (pseudo code)... if ([Fields!StateProvinceId.Value] == 1) { return "Ontario"; } else if ([Fields!StateProvinceId.Value] == 2) { return "Quebec"; } else if ([Fields!StateProvinceId.Value] == 3) { return "Manitoba"; } // ... // more cases same pattern I don't see this type of logic do I have to nest a bunch of IIF? =IIF(Fields!StateProvinceId.Value = 1, "Ontario", IIF(Fields!StateProvinceId.Value = 2, "Quebec", IFF(Fields!StateProvinceId.Value = 3, "Manitoba", "Unknown Province"))) Have you tried a

I am creating a report using SSRS for a phone number field in my database as a string value. I need to format a string value in phone number format (555) 555-1212. If the value is null, display nothing. For example, a table in my database has a phone number column and some values are NULL. I got a regex that formats the phone number fine. =System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(Fields!Phone.Value, "(\d{3})[ -.] (\d{3})[ -.] (\d{4})","($1) $2-$3") However if I do this: =IIf(Fields!Phone.Value is nothing, "", System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(Fields!Phone.Value,"(\d{3})[ -.] (\d

I'm trying to create a invoice type report where i have a header, main body with a table (which includes a totals section) and footer. The problem im getting is, the table height in the main body depends on how many rows are returned from my SPROC, hence if there is not much data, the table will take up a small portion on the middle of the page with the "totals" and "disclaimer" ending nowhere near the bottom of the page (ideally, want to put it just above the footer). I have seen guides to get around this problem, with the general method to add blank (null) lines in the SPROC, forcing the

Q1: why would I want to have an Unattended Execution Account? Q2: if I don't use an Unattended Execution Account, which account is used to run the reports? Q3: if i get the following error message when running a report: "The report server has encountered a configuration error. Logon failed for the unattended execution account. (rsServerConfigurationError) Log on failed. Ensure the user name and password are correct. (rsLogonFailed) Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password". I understand that the Unattended Execution Account user name and/or password is wrong. But, where is that user

I have been asked a couple times to change the file name dynamically in SSRS 2008. Example: ReportName_201101.RDL. The 201101 represents the execution date. Can this be accomplished in SSRS 2008? If you mean the filename when you export the report and also happen to be pulling it from the ASP.NET ReportViewer, you can set the name through the DisplayName property. ReportViewerControl.ServerReport.DisplayName = "ReportName_201101"; or (if ProcessingMode is Local): ReportViewerControl.LocalReport.DisplayName = "ReportName_201101"; For pretty much all other cases, Alison is right. There is an MS

When I hide columns in SSRS they still appear in the CSV export. I have to hide columns, not the entire tablix. This is what I have tried already: The filters in the tablix hide rows not columns. The DataElementOutput per column can not be set using an expression. Format options such as expressions on visibility are ignored for CSV rendering methods. CSV rendering methods are essentially data flows, so you can suppress elements that you don't want to include in CSV files by changing the DataElementOutput from Auto, the default value, to NoOutput. There is a solution in the version of SRS 2008

I'm looking for a way to get versioning informations out of my SSRS reports. I have several environments and would like to be able to compare which report version is deployed on these environments. In SSIS this is very easy because each SSIS package gets a new version when it was modified and safed. Is there something similiar with the reports ? Dennis G Unfortunately there currently is no built-in functionality similar to a dll assembly version for RDL files. The only way to get some kind of version information is to query the last modified date of the RDL file on the server via C# or VB.Net.
