Can I Apply A Database Function Or Assembly Call In An Expression For Filter Data?


I need to translate a user€™s regional setting into one of our own language codes before I send it through as a filter to the model query.  If our language codes were the same, the filter would look like this in the report filter -
                     Language Code = GetUserCulture()
Which translates to this in the database query (for us english) -
                        table.language_code = 'EN-us'
And of course I need it to look like this -
                             table.language_code = 'ENG'
 
I would like the logic to be globally available to all report writers (ie not forcing each report writer to have an iif or case stataement).  I was thinking custom assemblies or maybe a database function, but at this level of the filter, I cannot seem to figure out how to embed a database function call to apply to the filter criteria like this
              Language Code = dbo.ConvertFcnIWrote(GetUserCulture())
Or how I would access the custom assembly in the filter expression.
 
Do you have a recommended implementation for this situation?
 
Thanks,
Toni Fielder

&&"Failed To Load Expression Host Assembly. Details: StrongName Cannot Have An Empty String For The Assembly Name. &&"
I previously had an ASP.NET 1.1 site running on my IIS 6.0 server (not the default website) with Reporting Services running in a subdirectory of that website.  I recently upgraded to ASP.NET 2.0 for my website and was greeted with an error when trying to view a report.  The error was very non-descript, but when I checked the server logs, it recorded the details as "It is not possible to run two different versions of ASP.NET in the same IIS process.  Please use the IIS Administration Tool to reconfigure your server to run the application in a separate process."

 

First of all, I could not figure out where and how to do this.  Secondly, I decided to try to also change the Reporting Services folders to run ASP.NET 2.0 and when I did, I was greeted with the following message when attempting to view a report:

 

"Failed to load expression host assembly. Details: StrongName cannot have an empty string for the assembly name."

Please help.

How To Selectively Apply A Filter
Based on some report parameters value?

My dataset to display is coming from a stored procedure. Now based on a report parameter which user selects, I want to filter the results being displayed but only if user selects certain value in the parameter drop down. I tried using iif statement and I can use it to filter dataset based on parameter but can't get how NOT to apply the filter for a particular value of the user selected parameter.

Cross Apply Issue (Last Call) :)
I can't figure out what can be causing this.

When I use this query

If I try to insert the results into anything It runs > 5 minutes (I have yet to let it finish)

Is It Possible To Create A UDF From A .NET 2.0 Assembly That Uses Dllimport To Call Unmanaged Code?
I have been reading up on everything I can find on this subject and I am not clear if this is allowed within the SQL Server 2005 CLR.  My function calls work within a Windows form project, but don't run when invoked from a SQL function.  I don't get any errors or warnings when creating the assembly and functions within SQL Server, but when running via a select statement, the spid just hangs and I have to stop & restart the service to kill the process.  I have been investigating the security settings for this assembly, but I think I have that covered via the RunTime Security Policy settings in the .NET Framework 2.0 Configuration tool.

 

Any insights, knowledge, or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

How Do I Write An OUTER APPLY Without A Table Function?
I'd like to select the last unshipped order, or if none is open, the last shipped order, for each customer. I noticed that all the examples on line for OUTER APPLY involve table-valued functions, but I have read (in a book I don't have here) that a subquery can work. The following shows what I want, but it isn't valid syntax:
SELECT c.CustomerName, oa.OrderNumber, oa.Status
  FROM Customers c
  OUTER APPLY (
    SELECT TOP 1 CustomerID, OrderNumber,
    CASE WHEN ShipDate IS NULL
         THEN 'due ' + CAST(DueDate AS VARCHAR)
         ELSE 'shipped ' + CAST(ShipDate AS VARCHAR)

    CASE WHEN ShipDate IS NULL
         THEN DueDate + 1000 -- Give open orders priority.
         ELSE ShipDate

    ORDER BY SortOrder

Can You Call/execute A Stored Procedure From An Expression?
I want to use Navigation to click-through to another report.

However, the source report is an MDX summary report, and the report I'm calling needs the entire Customer MDX tuple as a parameter.  (the entire customer tuple is not available in my cube)

The text box has enough information to identify the customer, but not the entire tuple. 

I want to pass the text box contents to a SP which returns the MDX string, and pass that to the new report. 

I do not see how using another data source can help me accomplish this.

Basically, I am wondering is there a way I can have an expression similar to

   =EXECUTE(spX, parm=txtbox.Value)

ALTER ASSEMBLY Error Msg 6509 An Error Occurred While Gathering Metadata From Assembly ‘&&<Assembly Name&&>’ With HRESULT 0x1.
I work with February CTP of SqlServer 2008.
I have an Assembly with several UDTs inside. Version of assembly is 1.0.*
I use CREATE ASSEMBLY statement to register this assembly, and it runs without any errors. Then I rebuild CLR solution without doing any changes in source code. In that case the only difference between new and old assemblies is version (difference in fourth part of version).
Then I try to update assembly in SqlServer. I use
ALTER ASSEMBLY <name>
FROM <path>
WITH PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE, UNCHECKED DATA
statement for this. Statement runs with error:
Msg 6509An error occurred while gathering metadata from assembly €˜<Assembly name>€™ with HRESULT 0x1.
I found the list of condition for ALTER ASSEMBLY in MSDN:
ALTER ASSEMBLY statement cannot be used to change the following:
·         The signatures of CLR functions, aggregate functions, stored procedures, and triggers in an instance of SQL Server that reference the assembly. ALTER ASSEMBLY fails when SQL Server cannot rebind .NET Framework database objects in SQL Server with the new version of the assembly.
·         The signatures of methods in the assembly that are called from other assemblies.
·         The list of assemblies that depend on the assembly, as referenced in the DependentList property of the assembly.
·         The indexability of a method, unless there are no indexes or persisted computed columns depending on that method, either directly or indirectly.
·         The FillRow method name attribute for CLR table-valued functions.
·         The Accumulate and Terminate method signature for user-defined aggregates.
·         System assemblies.
·         Assembly ownership. Use ALTER AUTHORIZATION (Transact-SQL) instead.
Additionally, for assemblies that implement user-defined types, ALTER ASSEMBLY can be used for making only the following changes:
·         Modifying public methods of the user-defined type class, as long as signatures or attributes are not changed.
·         Adding new public methods.
·         Modifying private methods in any way.
 
But I haven€™t done any changes in source code, so new version of assembly satisfies all this conditions.
What could be the reason for such behavior?
P.S. I€™ve got the same error, if I add or change any method in assembly before rebuilding.

So I am wondering? does a call to the function return a temporary table? And if so, is the temporary table named PartyId? If so, the logic seems strange to me because earlier they are using the name PartyId as a variable name that is passed in.

Calling VB Based SQLCLR Function Failed With Error Can't Load System.Web Assembly

create assembly totalmem from '!WORKINGDIR! otalmem.dll'

WITH PERMISSION_SET=UNSAFE

go

create function fnGetTotalMem()

returns int

as external name totalmem.SqlClrVB.GetTotalPhysicalMemory

go

 

When I call this function, it returned following error:

select dbo.fnGetTotalMem()

 

Msg 6522, Level 16, State 2, Line 0

A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user defined routine or aggregate 'fnGetTotalMem':

Anyone knows why I'm hitting this error? I didn't reference any System.Web interface why it needs to load System.Web assembly? The same code runs OK if I compile it as a separate VB application out side of SQL Server 2005.

How To Grant Rights For The Anonymous IIS Web User IUSR_.. To Execute Scalar Function In Assembly
Dear all,

Basically I want to set chain up the rights so that the anonymous web user IUSR_ .. can execute the new .NET subs, functions etc in the assembly, just as the anonymous web user can execute Stored Procedures when granted. In this way, it should be possible to call the .NET assembly just as classic stored procedures from ASP/ASP.NET.

I have written a .NET function which I can successfully execute if I log on to the database as an administrator by sending this T-SQL query; it returns the result of a given string:

select dbo.CLRHTMLString('abc')

The scenario is now to try to grant access to this assembly for a different role (webuser), which the classic IUSR_MYSERVERNAME is a login of, so that I can call the .NET Assembly when I am authenticated as the anonymous web user (e.g. via ASP, etc.).

To test access, I created a login (webusertest) for a user (webusertest) in the same role (webuser) on the database. But when I use this login, which supposedly  has the same rights as the IUSR_, execution right is denied:

EXECUTE permission denied on object 'CLRHTMLString', database 'adt_db', schema 'dbo'.

Note: The 'webuser' database role has Execute permission on the Assembly.

I have also tested this from my actual web page, with the following results:
(1) IUSR_MYSERVER member of db_owner role: Web page has right to call assembly.
(2) IUSR_MYSERVER not member of db_owner role: Web page does not have right to call assembly.

Further test results:
(3) Function can be called when making the user "webusertest" member of the "db_owner" role, which is too much rights to grant for the anonymous web user.

(4) When adding the user 'webusertest' to get 'Execute' permissions on the assembly, it does not get added. After clicking OK, there is no warning message, but when opening the Assembly Properties -> Permission dialog box the same time, the 'webusertest' user does not appear in the list.

Thankful for any advice on this matter.

CROSS APPLY Vs OUTER APPLY Example Messed Up?
Hi... I'm reading the MS Press 70-442 Self-Paced Training kit, and I'm having problems with this example.
I'd like help getting it to work correctly, or understand why it is isn't working the way I planned.
 
On page 67, the lab is about the APPLY operator (CROSS APPLY and OUTER APPLY). I first have to input a sample table-valued function into the AdventureWorks database:
 



Code Block
CREATE FUNCTION fnGetAvgCost(@ProdID int)
RETURNS @RetTable TABLE (AvgCost money)
AS
BEGIN
WITH Product(stdcost)
AS
(
  SELECT avg(standardcost) as AvgCost
  FROM Production.ProductCostHistory
  WHERE ProductID = @ProdID
)
INSERT INTO @RetTable
SELECT * FROM Product
RETURN
END
 


and then run a sample T-SQL statement

 



Code Block
SELECT p.Name, p.ProductNumber,
Convert(varchar, cost.AvgCost,1) AS 'Average Cost'
FROM Production.Product p
CROSS APPLY fnGetAvgCost(p.ProductID) AS cost
WHERE cost.AvgCost IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY cost.AvgCost desc
 
My problem is with the WHERE clause... According to page 56, CROSS APPLY returns only rows from the outer table that produces a result set, so why do I need to explicitly filter NULL values?
 
When I remove the WHERE clause, the query retrieves lots of NULL AvgCost values.
 
Again, according to page 56, it is the OUTER APPLY that returns all rows that return a result set and will include NULL values in the columns that are returned from the table-valued function.
 
So, in short, I don't see the difference between CROSS APPLY and OUTER APPLY, using this example, when I remove the WHERE clause?
 
(Please refrain from introducing another example into this question.)

I don't know how to pass the parameter as well as the name of the function in the Web Service I'm calling.  Maybe I'm all wrong here with this code too?

Thanks for any help.

 

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[pTAPServiceWeb]

@sUrl varchar(200),

@response varchar(8000) out

AS

DECLARE @obj int

DECLARE @hr int

DECLARE @status int

DECLARE @msg varchar(255)

EXEC @hr = sp_OACreate 'MSXML2.ServerXMLHttp', @obj OUT

IF @hr < 0

BEGIN

RAISERROR('sp_OACreate MSXML2.ServerXMLHttp failed', 16, 1)

RETURN

END

EXEC @hr = sp_OAMethod @obj, 'Open', NULL, 'GET', @sUrl, false

IF @hr < 0

BEGIN

SET @msg = 'sp_OAMethod Open failed'

GOTO err

END

EXEC @hr = sp_OAMethod @obj, 'send'

IF @hr < 0

BEGIN

SET @msg = 'sp_OAMethod Send failed'

GOTO err

END

EXEC @hr = sp_OAGetProperty @obj, 'status', @status OUT

IF @hr < 0

BEGIN

SET @msg = 'sp_OAMethod read status failed'

GOTO err

END

-- IF @status <> 200

-- BEGIN

-- SET @msg = 'sp_OAMethod http status ' + str(@status)

-- GOTO err

-- END

EXEC @hr = sp_OAGetProperty @obj, 'responseText', @response OUT

IF @hr < 0

BEGIN

SET @msg = 'sp_OAMethod read response failed'

GOTO err

END

EXEC @hr = sp_OADestroy @obj

RETURN

err:

EXEC @hr = sp_OADestroy @obj

RAISERROR(@msg, 16, 1)

RETURN

Function Call In Dataset Query
Hello Guys,

 

I have a question that seems easy but I can not figure out...

 

Premise:

Have Custom code that fixes Divide by Zero Errors in SSRS. I have added the code to the Custom Code area in Report Properties correctly.

 

I have a Dataset that has a calculation for a column within a select statement

 

Query Pseudocode:

 

select ...[FRC%]=convert(decimal(13,2),sum(cost))/convert(decimal(13,2),sum(income))...
,year
from

(subquery"blah" )

Union

(Subquery"blah")

 

Custom Code:

 

Public Function SafeDiv(ByVal numerator as Double, ByVal denominator as Double) as Double
    if denominator = 0 then
        return 0
    else
        return numerator/denominator
    end if
End Function

 

How To use:

 

If you have a field that does division and you need to eliminate the divide by zero error that occurs with SSRS then type =code.SafeDiv(first,second) in the field.

 

Problem:

How do I add this code reference in the following dataset select statement

 

select ...[FRC%]=convert(decimal(13,2),sum(cost))/convert(decimal(13,2),sum(income))...
,year
from

(subquery"blah" )

Union

(Subquery"blah") table1

 







 

I tried to do this:

from this:

[FRC%]=convert(decimal(13,2),sum(cost))/convert(decimal(13,2),sum(income)) ...

to this

[FRC%]=code.Safediv(convert(decimal(13,2),sum(cost)),convert(decimal(13,2),sum(income))) ...







 

But it did not work...gave me this error:

 

TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer

Cannot find either column "code" or the user-defined function or aggregate "code.safediv", or the name is ambiguous.

Help!

 

P.S.

this is a Matrix report and this select statement is within one of the datasets that fill a matrix.

Filter Expression For Searching &"with All The Words&"
Using VWD I have created a search feature using the LIKE clause.  The filter expression on my SQLDataSource allows the user to search the Description field of a database and yield a result that contains the exact word or phrase entered into a textbox.  Assuming that the user enters more than one word, my understanding is that the search result is limited to database rows that contain the EXACT phrase (such as found in an advanced Google search using the “with the exact phrase” option).  The current filter expression is: Description LIKE '%{0}%' For example, if “John Smith” is typed into the search textbox, the results will include a row with: 1.  “John Smith is my neighbor”  but NOT a row with  2.  “John is my neighbor.  His last name is Smith”.   How does one modify the filter expression so that the search result is like the Google “with all the words” search option, where the search results are limited to records in which all the words typed into the textbox are present but not necessarily in the EXACT continuous order?  In the example above, BOTH Descriptions would be returned in the search results when “John Smith” in typed into the search textbox. Thanks for any help you can provide in helping me refine my search options.

Using Cint Function In Expression Editor
Hi, I am a new to Reporting Services...

I am using RS2000

I am trying to apply cint function in the expression editor for the textbox

eg. i type in =cint(Fields!firstfield.Value/Fields!secondfield.Value).

This is returning error

The value expression for the textbox €˜HoldDuration€™ contains an error: Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow.

Could you please let me know what I did wrong in this and how to correctly apply VB or any custom functions in the expression editor where the expession output would be a decimal value and you are interested in getting an integer value by rounding the fractional part.

Function With Expression To Return Values
I have created a function to return values, which works fine, but I can't do calculations in it.

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[tf_Asset_Portfolio](@deal_id int,
@as_of_date datetime)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN ( SELECT DISTINCT dbo.Assets.issue_id, SUM(DISTINCT dbo.Assets.par_amount) AS par_amount, SUM(DISTINCT dbo.Assets.par_amount) AS market_value
FROM dbo.Issue INNER JOIN
dbo.Assets ON dbo.Issue.issue_id = dbo.Assets.issue_id INNER JOIN
dbo.Issuer_Rating_History ON dbo.Issue.issuer_id = dbo.Issuer_Rating_History.issuer_id
WHERE (dbo.Issuer_Rating_History.as_of_date <= @as_of_date)
GROUP BY ALL dbo.Assets.issue_id, dbo.Assets.deal_id, dbo.Issue.default_date
HAVING (dbo.Assets.deal_id = @deal_id) )

I need to do calculations on market value based on the default date.
If default date isn't specified then it should be 100% of par amount.
If default date is less than one year ago - 65% of the par_amount.
If default date is one or more years ago - 0.
I have no idea about how to do this and everything I try wont work.
I created another function to do the calculations and this seems to work, but it only does one record instead of all of them.

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.tf_Asset_Portfolio2
(@deal_id int,
@as_of_date datetime)
RETURNS @Market TABLE
(issue_id int, par_amount money, market_value money)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @ReturnDate datetime
DECLARE @DD datetime
DECLARE @PA money
DECLARE @MV money
DECLARE @ID int
DECLARE @DateD int

SELECT TOP 1
@ReturnDate = LAST_BATCH
FROM master..sysprocesses
WHERE SPId = @@SPID

SELECT @ID = issue_id FROM Assets WHERE Assets.deal_id = @deal_id
SELECT @PA = SUM(DISTINCT par_amount) FROM Assets WHERE Assets.issue_id = @ID AND Assets.deal_id = @deal_id
SELECT @DD = default_date FROM Issue WHERE Issue.issue_id = @ID

SET @DateD = DateDiff("yyyy", @DD, @ReturnDate)

If @DD = Null
BEGIN
SET @MV = @PA
END
Else If @DD > @ReturnDate
BEGIN
SET @MV = @PA
END
Else If @DateD < 1
BEGIN
SET @MV = @PA * .65
END
Else If @DateD >= 1
BEGIN
SET @MV = 0
END

insert into @Market
(issue_id, par_amount, market_value)
values
(@ID,@PA,@MV)

RETURN
END

I need to combine the functionality of being able to return mutliple records that isn't in the 2nd function and being able to calculate the market value which isn't in the first one. Please help. Thank you in advance.
