Can I Access My Data Source In Custom Report Item During Design Mode?
Mar 19, 2007
Hi,
I'm developing a Custom Report Item and would like to fill my properties dialog in design mode with real data. I have the name of the data source and the command text for the corresponding report dataset, read from the report design.
Is it possible to create an ado.net dataset so that I can display and use real data in my properties dialog box? First problem I have is to get the connection string from the data source string. I found no docs for that, especially the Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions.ReportDataSource class is not documented. Am I on the right way with that?
I got a package with data flow task. Within the data flow task I have flat file with Fiscal Calendar defined. I got another data source within the data flow task, which is OLE DB Source. I want to use SQL Command as data access mode. SQL similar to one the below is in there.
This SQL works fine in SSMS and returns around 6000 rows. But when I plug the same SQL in OLE DB Source it returns only the first record. It is not going through the WHILE loop.
I am try to transfer some tables data from one database server into another database server. I create a package in SSIS, and I use a variable to pass each table name. In Data flow, I use a OLEDB Source, but I cannot set the Data access mode to Table name or view name variable. Ever time, I will get this following error info "===================================
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [31]]: A destination table name has not been provided.
(Microsoft Visual Studio)
===================================
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0202042 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------ Program Location:

Some one can tell me what is the reason, or give me some examples.
I have developed a custom report item that works fine in design and preview mode while in Visual Studio. I cannot get it to show up on my deployed reports. Here's what I have done so far:
1. Deployed the report using Visual Studio
2. updated the rsreportserver.config file with the following entry:
I've also tried using the StrongNameMembershipCondition with no better results.
4. The dll and its dependencies are copied to the bin directory of the report server.
5. When I load a report with this custom report item on it, the report loads fine with no errors or warnings in the log file (even with verbose tracing). The area where the custom item should be is just white. It's almost like Reporting Services isn't registering the item correctly.
This is particularly frustrating because the report works fine in Visual Studio - apparently I configured that correctly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm stumped.
How would one go about setting the height of a custom report item programmatically?
I have a custom report item that renders back an image of indeterminate height. I cannot simply set RenderItem.Sizing = Image.Sizings.AutoSize; As the image is being rendered back at 300 dpi and will require being set to FitProportional. Therefore I need to set the height to a scale height. I've tried setting CRI.Height to a ReportSize value, but it tells me that I cannot because of the current state of the item.
I'm developing a Custom Report Item that generates a BarCode.
I developed all control functionality but now the problem resides on the Deploy Process.
For the fisrt time I followed 2 steps to deploy component on Visual Studio:
1) Copy the dll on " Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies " 2) Configure the control in "Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssembliesRSReportDesigner.config"
On the other Hand I configured SQL Server Reporting services doing that:
3) Copy the dll on " Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServerin " 4) Configure the control in "Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServer sreportserver.config"
We are developing a custom report item but we cannot find a way to get the report parameters. In Vb examples there is mentioning of globals but these do not seem to be present in the c# enviroment.
Could anyone give a solution on how to get to the report parameter collection in run-time.
I'm looking at creating a custom report item which will allow me to input data into a textbox on the rendered report and dynamically update a textbox or another custom report item once I leave focus of that initial textbox. Is there a way to accomplish this? I have read that you can only create CRIs which use "graphic elements and images". Is that a true statement?
The reason why I don't want to have the initial value as a parameter is becuase the client doesn't want to have to click "View Report" everytime they want to see an updated value.
I am having a problem with deploying a CRI. On my local machine the CRI works fine, only at the development machine it doens't works. I did the following steps:
copy the .dll to the C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies
copy the .dll to the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.4Reporting ServicesReportServerin

I have developed a renderer that renders the xml to paint a rectangle with textboxes in all the right places based on the data retrieved off the database. When i render the a complete report to the reportviewer i have no problem.
I need however to render the rectangle into a custom report item for reusability and different scenarios. This just seem to be impossible since it seems like I cant use anything other than an imagemap to render custom report items. Is this true?
To make sure you understand....in other words....
Is there a way to develop a Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportRendering.IRenderingExtension that renders the required xml like rectangles/textboxes etc. and then migrate this to a custom toolbox item. It just seems like this should be a very easy thing to do and something regularly needed. For example when you want to use textboxes in certain positions within a rectangle to draw a organisational chart.
I read that this sample is included, however when I install the samples the other three are in the "Extension Samples" directory but the "Custom Report Item Sample" is missing. Can anybody please tell me where I can find it?
Hi All, I want to get the Font,Background colors of the report item(Textbox) changed in Runtime,According to the value in the Textbox. The idea is to get this done by using the Same Custom code for getting both the Foreground,Background colors, I thought to implement this with flag, But I dont know how to do this..
Reporting experts ..please help me with this issue.Thanks in Advance
Is there any way to get more information for when IAuthorizationExtension::CheckAccess fails to grant access to a report item for the current user? Specifically, it would be useful to know:
1. URL of attempted report 2. IP address of user agent 3. Identity of current user 4. Date/Time of the failed attempt
I have a very frustrating problem. But given that this is a development forum, I'll keep that for my 'Envelope Lickers Rehab' and instead talk about an issue I'm having.
I have a very large query (line-wise) that executes in less than a minute when run from the SQL Management Studio as well as via Excel Services.Â
It is a stored procedure with one parameter. When I try to prime the designer with this query it gives me the following message:
"Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. The statement has been terminated."
I've considered cracking open the xml source and manually creating the fields, but I'd rather not go there.
I've never attempted to use the "Repeat Report Item with Data Region on Every Page " feature before. I'm trying to use it on text boxes with the data region being a matrix. I have a report that is two pages, and the text boxes are only appearing on the first page. Also, the matrix is appearing with zero space between it and the header. Any ideas?

I've been using Konesan's FileWatcher control-flow item successfully in design-mode on my PC, which runs the package on a remote server.
I have installed the Konesan's FileWatcher on the remote SQLServer machine. I then imported the package to the server (Files System folder). I then select the package, right-click 'Run Package', then Execute, and receive the error:
"Error: The task 'File Watcher Task' cannot run on this edition of Integration Services. It requires a higher level edition"
..in the 'Package Execution Progeress' dialog. All other validation seem to be ok.
(Note, I'm executing the above steps using SQLServer Mgt Studio from my PC ; I'm not doing it from the SQLServer machine itself...not sure if this matters or not.)
The SSIS version installed on the server is 9.0.3054. It shouldn't be an "SSIS version issue", as it is the same SQLServer that I used (successfully) from my PC in design mode...
How do I retrieve the connections (connection managers) collections from Custom Data Flow destination? ComponentMetadata.RuntimeConnectionCollection is empty. I would like to be able to access all the connections defined in the package from the custom data flow task.
I came across code in which it was possible to access the Connections collection using the IDtsConnectionService for custom task (destination). The custom task has access to serviceProvider, whcih can be used to get access to the IDtsConnectionService interface but not the custom data flow task.
I have a old report that was pointing to a different database, and i changed the connection string for that report and changed the field names (As per my new stored Procedure). In some places I keep getting this run time error, i have tried looking for all the hidden references to this field and i cannot find any parameter that the old database had. The error messages that i get are as follows:
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblContactInfo€™ refers to the field €˜PL_Admin_ShowInKit€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblContactInfo€™ refers to the field €˜PL_FA_ShowInKit€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblWithdrawals€™ refers to the field €˜PW_Comment€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
Can Someone please help me out as to how should i get rid of these error messages, they are kinda driving me nuts.
I have few reports under different folders in Report Manager. Is there a way to set the data source for the whole folder rather than each report individually? There is also a folder where reports generate dynamically. Since the report project doesn't exist anymore, I can't set the data source through code. How can I set the data source for the whole folder?
I'm stucked in a problem and I thought if you would be so kind as to helping me to resolve it.
I'm implementing a clustering algorithm plugin for text mining. I've already read the tutorials and sample codes provided by the MSDN Library.
Well... My problem is: I can't go through the data when the Predict method is called. I've read that this method implements the "core" of the custom algorithms. Here is a small snippet of my code for you to understand my doubt:
As you can see, I'm going through in_rgValues to get its values, but i'm only obtaining the first register of the table on the database. I need to roll over a kind of resultset so I could access all the registers I need. Is there any way to do so ?
I expected Predict() received a matrix containing all my data, but the only thing I noticed that could represent the data is that in_rgValues vector. So I can go through this vector, but it holds only the first register of the table in the database (that's what's being saved on my log). I need all of the registers in order to pre-process the data and implement my clustering algorithm.
Well... That's it... I would be very pleased if you could help me.
In a Data Flow Task, I have an insert that occurs into a SQL Server 2000 table from a fixed width flat file. The SQL Server table that the data goes into is accessed through an OLE DB connection manager that uses the Native OLE DBMicrosoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server.
In the OLE DB Destination, I changed the access mode from Table or View - fast load to Table or View because I needed to implement OLE DB Destination Error Output. The Error output goes to a SQL Server 2000 table that uses the same connection manager.
The OLE DB Destination Editor Error Output 'Error' option is configured to 'Redirect' the row. 'Set this value to selected cells' is set to 'Fail component'.
Was changing the access mode the simple reason why the insert from the flat file takes so much longer, or could there be other problems?
I'm new to sql server. Last week I made my first cube. Everything went fine. But when I want to explore the cube (from the explore panel in Visual Studio 2012) in Excel then I'm getting the error "Initialization of the data source failed".
Check your database server or contact your database administrator. Make sure the external database is available, and then try the operation again. If you see this message again, create a new datasource to connect to the database.
I'm using Sql Server 2012. Visual studio 2012. Excel 2013 on Windows 10
I've got a report that is using a cube as a data source and I can't get the report to show all the data. Only data at the lowest level of the cube is displayed. The problem is that most of the data I'm concerned with is at higher levels. There's no problem with the MDX. I get the correct results when I run the query.
I'm using a table to show the results. I've also tried a matrix, but I get the same results. I'm using SSRS 2005 and SSAS 2000.
Anyone have experience with this? Am I missing something simple?
I have written CDE to retrieve and process data before generating the report. It works very well inside VS.Net. However, when deployed to the report server I get the following error

I would like to create a Integration Service for import a MS Access file to SQL server, and this service will be start at every night, but the MS Access data source path is different in every day, such as "c:20060201.mdb" or "c:20060202.mdb" and so on...
how can i to define the data source path on Integration Service by every night automatically.
I have a rs script to modify the data source of reports that were built based on report models.
Whenever I update the report model I need to reassign the new report model as a data source.
Since I have more than 1 report model I would like my script to check which report model the report uses so I can update just the reports that use the updated report model.
What is the property or which method I call to get the data source the report use?
According to this I'll know if to relink it to the new report model.
