I was using the MDX Query Builder to create MDX queries for a SSRS report. I'm not sure what happened, but when I tried to create another dataset against the cube, the "Drop Column Fields Here" and "Drop Row Fields Here" areas were no longer available for me to drop attributes onto.
I have restarted VS, rebooted, you name it, I've tried it (short of re-installing). Has anyone encountered this and how did you "fix" it.
BTW: In order to continue working, I decided to use ProClarity to build the MDX for me and when I tried to paste it into the MDX editor, I get the following error: "The query cannot be prepared: The query must have at least one axis. ..". So, as I've seen from other posts, you can't use "any" MDX in the MDX Query Builder.
I would like to have a parameter on my report to Select by Order_Taken_By. My attempt at that is here:
Dataset called OrderTaken:
select distinct SO_Header.Order_Taken_By from SO_Header Under the report Parameter Properties named @Order, under Available Values Selected "Get Values from a query"
I have DataSet: OrderTaken
Value Field: Order_Taken_By Label Field: Order_Taken_By
The values of the field Order_Taken_By is all text characters, no integer values.
Running the inital Query by itself yields results. When I add the parameter, I can make a selection, but now I get no results, even though there should be values for the choice I've chosen.
I have a query which returns number of columns using pivot ( rows into columns -- dynamic sql pivot columns). Since it is dynamic pivot, how can I bind this returned values into report builder matrix reports.
Look at this example :
First time query returns StudentId | Col1 | Col2 | Col3
Second time query returns StudentId | Col1 | Col2 | Col3 | Col4 | Col5 | Col6 ...
How to bind this query into report builder 3.0 reports?
I have a sample table as below: (All columns do not have to have unique values) Column n is int, the rest are varchar [First row is the column Names]
n | t1 | t2 | t3 | t4 1 | a | b | c | d 3 | e | w | a | t 3 | w | q | u | k 2 | g | w | q | n 2 | a | b | s | a 5 | n | a | w | h
I need to create a query or some how create a way to get the data in the form of the below table:
n | t1 | t2 | t3 | t4 | t11 | t21 | t31 | t41 1 | a | b | c | d | 3 | e | w | a | t | w | q | u | k 2 | g | w | q | n | a | b | s | a 5 | n | a | w | h
What that means is that I have a huge table (~6000 rows) that has the column 'n' above (int type) which can have rows that start with the same number (such as number 3 & 2 above). I need these duplicate rows of numbers to be converted/transformed to columns alongside each other. This would create 1 entry for each type of number but have the 4 columns of t1, t2, t3, t4 'added' on as extra columns in the new table with a different column name ofcourse. So what that would mean is that if there were 3 rows of number n=2 then would have 3x4=12 columns, plus the 'n' column and so forth.
I am not sure on how to start the query for this. What I have thought is maybe using a cursor and going through the table. But not sure how I could do that really. The other is using a Pivot in a SELECT statement. But that would not work since the columns can grow indefinetely depending on how many of the same 'number' row there is!
Can u help to to solve my problem . Many time this question arised in the forum no one answer to me to find out the solution for my problem. So please help

Since 2 weeks now I'm trying to figure out how to get SQL CE 3.5 into the CE 6.0 R2 image (I'm building my own image with platform builder 6.0, latest patches - until march 2008 - installed).
There is no Catalog item in my "Catalog item view" not even an older version of SQL! In Platform builder 5.0 there were Items in the Catalog and - as expected - by selecting them I got the server into the image.
I also tried to add "SYSGEN_SQLMOBILE = 1" to the project environment variables, which resulted in having build errors instead of getting a working image.
There are also some postings around in the internet telling how to add the required dll's manually. (Hey, Microsoft, do we live in stone age or in the 21st century?)
Btw. installing the cab files is possible for me, but of course not for our customers.
Are there any sugesstions how to get a catalog item?
I currently have data stored in a temporary table and I would like to transpose the data into a better format. I would like for the query to be dynamic since one of the tables currently has over 500 columns.
The attached file provides an example of the table structure along with sample data. Below the first set of data is the desired final format.
I have a string that contains series of parameters with separators.i need to split the parameters and its values as rows and columns.e.g string = "Param1 =3;param2=4,param4=testval;param6=11;..etc" here the paramerter can be anything and in any number not fixed parameters. Currently am using the below function and getting the parameters by each in select statement as mentioned below.

Hi, I need to write a query which I have never attempted before and could do with some help.... I have a Groups table and a Users_Groups look up table. In this model, users can only be assigned to 1 group. If a group is deleted, a trigger should fire and delete any rows in User_Groups having a matching Groups.Ref. Unfortunately, the trigger hasn't been firing and I now have a load of defunct rows in Users_Groups relating users to groups which do not exist.I now need to find all of these defunct rows in Users_Groups so that I can delete them. How can I find rows in Users_Groups where the parent rows and refs in Groups are null? I've tried searching the net for something similar but don't even know how to word the search properly to get any half relevant results. Cheers PS, I do realise I need to tighten the constraints on my database
Hi Just started using Visual Studio Express 2005 (Web) with Server 2005 Express and I am trying to extract the data from a SQL but cannot find how to connect to and open a SQL recordset so as to use the values of a single record dotted around a page. I would be using the values in the <Head> and <body> areas of the page. The body of the page would utilise standard data grids for sub and sub data, this being no problem. Below is how I would have retrieved the "EndDate" value from an Access databse under asp.
Set Conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Set rs=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet") Conn.Open "DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("../private/Drapers.mdb") & ";Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" rs.open "SELECT * FROM Products where ID = 44", Conn, 3, 3 rs("Metta1") rs("Metta2") The following is from the Web.config file

Any help would be appreciated. John
I can see report builder in IE (I am report admin), but my users are not able to, despite having ticked 'report builder' against their name in folder security.
They have Browser, Report Builder
Why can't they see it?
"Site Settings - Security - Config sys wide role defs - sys user " has "execute report defs" ticked.
Hi! I've created a report in Report Builder, based on a query. When I run the report in Report Builder, it doesn't show the duplicates rows, even if it works fine in Data source view.
How can I see al rows in Report Builder(even if they're duplicates) ?
Hello, I have a survey (30 questions) application in a SQL server db. The application uses several relational tables. The results are arranged so that each answer is on a seperate row: user1 answer1user1 answer2user1 answer3user2 answer1user2 answer2user2 answer3 For statistical analysis I need to transfer the results to an Excel spreadsheet (for later use in SPSS). In the spreadsheet I need the results to appear so that each user will be on a single row with all of that user's answers on that single row (A column for each answer): user1 answer1 answer2 answer3user2 answer1 answer2 answer3 How can this be done? How can all answers of a user appear on a single row Thanx,Danny.
I would like to get some advises on how creating some kind of reports with Report builder
Lets say i have these two tables with these columns
Table Product
ProductName
Table ProductInstance
Product ID CreationDate CompletedDate
I would like to be able to create with report builder a report that looks this
Start Date : 2008/10/01 - End Date : 2008/10/30
Total Total Total In Out OutStanding ProductName1 10 0 3 ProductName2 5 5 2 ProductName3 8 8 5 ProductName4 12 5 6
Total In : total number of product created between StartDate and EndDate Total Out : Total number of product completed between Start Date and End Date Total OutStanding : Total number of product that have not yet been completed.
Any suggestion and advise on how to achieve this ?
;WITH ctePreAgg AS ( select top 500 act_reference "ActivityRef", row_number() over (partition by act_reference order by act_reference) as rowno, t3.s_initials "Initials" from mytablestuff order by act_reference
[code]...
But what I would love to do next is take each of the above rows - and return the initials either in one column with all the nulls and duplicate values removed, separated by a comma ..
OR the above but using variable number of columns based on the maximum number of different initials for each row.this is not strictly required, but maybe neater for further work on the view
I have a report which is a list of items and I display everything about the item. It is great. My report table in the layout tab is simple. Header,Detail,Footer. Each Item has 65 columns. The number of items (rows) vary upon what you want to see. Example data. Item#, Description, CaseSalePrice, Cost, BottleSalePrice, Discount 123, Grenadine, 100.00, 75.00, 15.50, 2.00 456, Lime Juice, 120.00, 81.00, 17.25, 2.00
What I am actually doing is running this the top example and saving to excel. Then copying the sheet. Creating a new sheet then doing a paste special transpose and this gives the users what they want to see.
I want to grab that table object in the report layout tab and twist it 90degrees so the header is on the left, detail is in the middle and the footer is on the right. It would be perfect.
The dynamic column need is really the problem here. I never know how many items will be in the report. They all have the same basic information like description and pricing.
I am all out of creative ideas, any help would be appreciated.
Just thought I would ask the question on here with regards a problem we have. We have PDA based auditing tool which use SQL Compact to store information via on Compact Framework application. Now we have a user who swears blind they have carried out an audit but there is no trace of it anywhere on the database even though there are audits on there prior to the said date and after and there is no other faciity to delete data from the app other than a complete wipe of the database hence everything would of gone!
Now, the data is stored over 4 tables from which there are no traces of any unrelated data between the tables etc. so its dissappeared, anybody any experience of data simply vanishing into thin air??
I'm somewhat new to report builder and have been trying to recreate a report previously created in an Excel Pivot Table. I'm encountering an issue arranging the data the way it's arranged in Excel.
Specifically, I would like the values column to precede an additional column.
Until I can post pictures I'll have to try and mock it:
COLUMNS Values Results (my data I want as a 2nd column)
I can't figure out how to get report builder to do it the same way. Whenever I add the 'Result' data as a column it always appears on top. I'm guessing what I need to do is somehow get result set as a child of the first Static group, but I'm unsure how to do that.
I have a sql 2000 database in which reports are generated on a monthly basis from the data inside on of my tables. The reports have been working fine, until some of the rows seemed to have disappered!
I know the data use to be in the table, since it is showing on the old reports, however, when I try to pull that same data, it is not in the database at all.
Does anyone have any ideas on what could have caused this or how I can resolve??
Recently, we are modifying some table structure in my Sql2K database. Hence, some columns are dropped or renamed. However, when we use Query Analzyer to modify or update some related stored procedure, it does not flag those missing columns as error in it.
What is wrong, any fixes for this issue. Thank you
We are trying to find out the difference between tables in CUSTOMER database and CUSTOMER_coded database. The goal is to find out if there are any columns missing in each table of CUSTOMER_coded database.
We need the list of tables in CUSTOMER_coded database that misses some column compare to its peer in CUSTOMER database (list of columns being missing also).
I googled, but I get only all the columns in tables of database.
I need missing columns of all the tables when we compare these 2 databases( CUSTOMER and CUSTOMER_coded databases).
Insert into #Customers values(101,'Aron',23,1,1,12,1,0); Insert into #Customers values(102,'Cathy',28,1,1,13,1,0); Insert into #Customers values(103,'Zarog',33,1,1,14,1,0); Insert into #Customers values(104,'Michale',25,1,2,12,1,0); Insert into #Customers values(105,'Linda',43,1,2,13,1,0);
Insert into #Customers values(106,'Burt',53,1,2,14,1,0);
If you observe, the rows are unique based on the internalid per st_code,per city_code
Problem : Now the user inserts another row but this time he passes only the following :
Insert into #Customer values(120,'AronNew',null,1,1,12,null,null) - Note he doesnt pass the age or the type
I want that when he passes this row, i match up this row with the existing row based on st_code,citycode and internalid and then update the new row with the missing values(only columns with null) that were there in the existing row
I have enabled drillthrough on a cube (AS 2005) and selected the columns required. This worked. When I use the drillthrough option in Excel, drillthrough queries return less rows than expected. For example, for a cells combinations (pivot table) I saw 21198 rows, but after access to detail, query return just 21106 rows. Less rows than expected.

I am using BULK INSERT to import some pipe-delimited flat files into a database.
I am firstly converting the file using VB.NET, to ensure each line of the file has a carriage return (by using streamwriter.writeline), and I am also ensuring there is no blank line at the end of the file (by using streamwriter.write).
Once I have done this, my BULK INSERT command appears to work OK. This is how I am using the statement:
BULK INSERT tempHISTORY FROM 'C:TEMPHISTORY.TXT' WITH ( FIRSTROW = 2, FIELDTERMINATOR = '|', ROWTERMINATOR = ' ' )
NB: The first row in the file is a header row.
This appears to work OK, however, I have found that certain files seem to miss the final line of the file! I have analysed these files incase they have an inconsistant number of columns but they don't.
I have also found that if I knock off the last column of the tempHISTORY table, the correct number of rows are imported. However, of course, I can't just discard one of the columns from the file, I need to import the entire file.
I cannot understand why BULK INSERT is choosing to miss the final line in the file, when the schema of the destination table matches the structure of the file.
I'm trying to create a performant script to copy records from a table in a source database, to an identical table in a destination database.
In SQL 2000, I used to create a little lookup which did a count using certain fields. If the record was missing, I executed an INSERT query, otherwise an UPDATE query. The result was that the table on the destination side was always up to date. Duplicate rows were out of the question.
This was, if I'm not mistaking, a Data Transformation, using a bit of custom VBA code to govern the transfer. For each source row, the custom code was executed. Depending on the result of the custom code, a different query was launched.
Now I'm trying to do the same using SSIS in SQL 2005. Is there a task which does this for me, or do I have to script again? In the latter case, which type of task would I use?
(I thought of the Script Task, but then I would need to set up quite a bit myself.)
Based on a table like below I have created a report so that I can compare number of items in the main warehouse (LOCATION1) and the outlets (LOCATION2 and LOCATION3).
Now the issue starts when I add a parameter to my report for user to choose which outlets (LOCATIONs) he wants in the equation. I know how to make a column disappear based on parameter value but how to take it out of equation? At the moment when user selects only LOCATION2 and not LOCATION3 then data is not filtered correctly:
Ideally I would like a user to select random outlets (warehouse would be static on the report) and compare one or multiple and only show records that are 0 in the outlets.
