Passing Parameter Query From SQL Function To Access Project Report
May 20, 2006
I can pass a parameter from an Access Query to an Access Report (MDB) by entering [Select Date] in the Query criteria and by placing an unbound control with a control source =[Select Date] on the report. I can't get this to work from a SQL Function Criteria to an unbound control on the Access Data Project Report. In the Function Criteria, I enter @SelectDate. In the Report control, I enter @SelectDate and it gives me an 'Invalide Column Name' error. Any idea how I can pass a parameter from a SQL Function to an ADP report?
THANKS!
p.s. I tried searching for other postings on this without any luck.
How to pass parameters to MS Graph (row source is a stored procedure withparameters) placed in Access Project form ?The problem is that there is no Input Parameters property on the graphobject...
There is a form in an Access Project (.adp, Access front end with SQLServer) for entering data into a table for temporary storing. Then, byclicking a botton, several action stored procedures (update, append) shouldbe activated in order to transfer data to other tables.I tried to avoid any coding in VB, as I am not a professional, but I havefound a statement in an article, that, unlike select queries, form's InputProperty can't be used for action queries. Therefore, parameters can bepassed to action stored procedure only by using ADO through VB.As I'm not very familiar with VB, I had to search in literature.So, this is a solution based on creating Parameter object in ADO and thenappending values to Parameter collection.Please, consider the following procedure I created for passing parametersfrom form's control objects (Text boxes) to a stored procedureDTKB_MB_UPDATE:Private Sub Command73_Click()Dim cmd As ADODB.CommandSet cmd = New ADODB.Commandcmd.ActiveConnection = CurrentProject.Connectioncmd.CommandText = "DTKB_MB_UPDATE"cmd.CommandType = adCmdStoredProcDim par As ADODB.ParameterSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@DATE", adDBTimeStamp, adParamInput)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@BATCH_NUMBER", adVarWChar, adParamInput, 50)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@STATUS", adVarWChar, adParamInput, 50)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@DEPARTMENT", adVarWChar, adParamInput, 50)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@PRODUCTION", adVarWChar, adParamInput, 50)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@SAMPLING_TYPE", adVarWChar, adParamInput,50)cmd.Parameters.Append parcmd.Parameters("@DATE") = Me.DATEcmd.Parameters("@BATCH_NUMBER") = Me.BATCH_NUMBERcmd.Parameters("@STATUS") = Me.STATUScmd.Parameters("@DEPARTMENT") = Me.DEPARTMENTcmd.Parameters("@PRODUCTION") = Me.PRODUCTIONcmd.Parameters("@SAMPLING_TYPE") = Me.SAMPLING_TYPEcmd.ExecuteSet cmd = NothingEnd SubUnfortunately, when clicking on the botton, the following error apears:"Run-time error'-2147217913 (80040e07)':Syntax error converting datetimefrom character string."Obviously, there is some problem regarding parameter @DATE. In SQL Server itis datetime, on the form's onbound text box it is short date (dd.mm.yyyy)data type. I have found in literature that in ADO it should beadDBTimeStamp.So, what is the problem ?Greetings,Zlatko
I have to pass 3parameters in function, @begindate,@enddate and @group_type.. but in @group_type should be - state,zipcode and country from salestable
inview :vwstzipcont create view vwstzipcont as select distinct s2.stype,s3.itemnmbr,s2.docdate,s3.state,s3.zipcode,s3.country from Salestable s3 left outer join (select distinct stype,docdate from salesdisttable) s2 on s2.stype = s3.stype where s2.soptype = 2 go
RETURNS TABLE AS RETURN (Select distinct t.docdate,t.itemnmbr,t.index,t.group_type from ( select distinct vs.docdate,vs.itemnmbr,
p.index From Pubs P
inner join vwstzipcont vs
on vs.index = p.index
Where (vs.docdate between @begindate and @enddate) and @group_type ) as t
order by t.itemnmbr,t.docdate
end
how can i assign @group_type variable or t.group_type? in s3.state,s3.zipcode,s3.country can anyone tell me? what condition should be in where clause for this variable?
I'm writing reports in Rep. Services that reads data from Dynamics NAV (Navision). In NAV data are stored by company and this is implemented by using the company name as prefix to the table name. This means that in a NAV database with three companies (lets call these companies A, B and C) we will have three tables with customers. The table names will be A$Customer, B$Customer and C$Customer.
Now to my problem:
I wan't to write one report where I can choose company. I do not want to use a stored procedure. I want to use a function so I can use the function in select statements and join several functions to build up a report that needs data from several tables.
Is there some way to pass the table name or a part of the table name to a function that returns the content of the actual table? I know I can pass parameters that I can use in the where clause, but is it possible to do it with the table name. Or is there any other way to solve this.
How would one pass a subquery to a function as a parameter?
I have a function, f_Split that returns a table and has two parameters @List varchar(max) and @Delim char(1). I'd like to use it to normalize rows in a table and return the results for use in a report. I tried the following:
SELECT * FROM dbo.f_Split((SELECT Code FROM Codes WHERE ID = 10), '|')
I'm getting a syntax error for the subquery. Could anyone show me the proper way to pass a subquery to a function, even if the function is different from what I have defined here.
I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.
Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?
I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.
Can i share a function module to all the reports in a report project, that i can use the functions in the formating or expressions. Is there any way to add a assembly reference to the project and can include all the functions in an assembly file?
When I click the link I am taken to the report but it is waiting for me to enter a parameter. I can see the parameter in the url address and it looks correct. I also tried Parameter!Cust.value (which has the same value as Fields!Cust.Value) but get the same result.
The target report has the correct name parameter: Cust. In any case, when I use "Jump to report" instead, it works correctly - although I don't see the parameter value in the url.
Adding a value to a non-queried default report parameter value does not update on the target server after deployment.
To recreate
1. Create a report in Visual Studio and add a report parameter with the following properties:
Multi-value is checked Available values = "From Query" Dataset = [create a dataset that returns a table w/ a Id and Description column] Value field = [the Id field from the table] Label field=[the Description column from the table] Default values = "Non-queried" (add several values the match the IDs from the table so that some of the values in the report dropdown will show up as checked when rendering the report)
2. Build and deploy the report to the reporting server. View the report and verify the specified items are checked in the report parameter.
3. Go back to Visual Studio and add a value to the Non-queried Default values.
4. Build and deploy the report again. View the report. The newly added item is not selected.
Notes
I verified that the newly added ID exists in the rdl file (as xml) on both the development box and the server where the report was deployed. However, when I view the report parameter using Management Studio (connect to the reporting server), the newly added value for the report parameter does not exist. I verified that changes are being deployed by adding new parameters and changing other properties of the parameter. I thought maybe the rdl itself was being cached somehow - I tried restarting IIS, SQL Server, and SQL Reporting services. None worked. Note that running the report on the development box by running the project through Visual Studio DOES reflect the change to the parameter.
Work-arounds
1. Create a dataset for the report that returns a table of the Ids that you want pre-selected. The query could be something like this:
SELECT '4' AS SelectedId UNION SELECT '5' AS SelectedId UNION SELECT '6' AS SelectedId
2. Delete the report in Management Studio, then redeploy.
I have issue w/ both workarounds because for 1) it is not intuitive and you have to remember to do this for every similar case, and 2) this extra step has to occur each time the report is deployed w/ changes to the report parameter.
Hi all. Is it possible to pass parameter FROM Report to my windows application(C#) ? Report is made in Business Intelligence Project. I just want to retrieve the total row number to my windows appication. Is it possible? If yes, Can you provide codes for this? Thanks. Your help would be highly appreciated.
I am trying to create a drill-down report by passing the Customer ID number to the drill report. The 'parent' report is a tabular report, as is the 'child.' As long as I used the numeric Customer ID, the child report returned no rows from the passed parameter. However, when I use the Customer Name instead, the child report functions correctly.
Here is the parameter as passed using the Customer ID: [Customer Hierarchy].[Customer ID].&[70011231]
Can anyone shed some light on why this wouldn't work?
I have a string report parameter called @name. In my script, i have and a.name like '%@name%' but it returns no rows. I tried removing the '% but still doesn't work. What is the correct way to script this?
Hello, I've created a Report Model Project that can be used by Report Builder to generate ad-hoc reports. I'm trying to create a connection string in my Report Server Project that points to the Report Model Project data source view.
All I can do is create a regular datasource, which bypasses the metadata contained in the Data Source View.
Basically I want my Report Server Project and my Report Builder reports to leverage the same metadata. Is this possible? If so how do I get the connection string?
Hi, I have found this question asked many times online, but the answers always consisted of getting a parameter from the user and to the report. That is NOT what everyone was asking. I would like to know how to pass a parameter I already have into my stored procedure. Using Visual Studio 2005, in the "Data" tab of a report calling something likeUnique_Login_IPsreturns correctly when that stored proc takes no params, but when I have one that takes the year, for example, I do not know how to pass this info in. Note: the following does not work in this context : EXEC Unique_Login_IPs ParameterValue nor does EXEC Some_proc_without_paramsVisual studio seems to want only the procedure name because it returns errors that say a procedure with the name "the entire line above like EXEC Unique_Login_IPs ParameterValue" does not exist.... Thanks in advance,Dustin L
I have defined a monthly substription for a series of reports. I would like to be able to pass a paremter used in generating the report to the file name define in the subscription.
I can do it if I used system names such as @datetime, but I want to be able to use a parameter unique to the report.
For example if the parameter for the report was CARS and I was quesrying Toyotas how can I get toyoats to show up in the file name?
Could any body tell me as to how I would be able to pass report grouping in drill through report.
Please review the diagram below to better understand my problem
Report 1 (Summary) Columns1 Column 2
Row-1:Grouped by attribute X Calculation based of dates Calculation based of dates Row-2: Grouped by attribute Y Calculation based of dates Calculation based of dates
The Drill thru option should be present in all of the columns; so that, when any of the numbers in the column are clicked it should drill through to another report which should show all the records pertaining to all the values in X1
Report 2 (Details) Report 3 ((Details) X1 Y1 X2 Y2 X3 - X4 - X5 - - Yn - - - Xn What I did so far was to pass the report parmeter in report 1 as "Fields! attribute X ,Value" and same for Y The problem with is that only the first value of the group that satisfies condition gets passed on to the detail reports. Kindly let me know were I am going wrong and what should I be doing. Awaiting your opinions Thanks and Regards GM
Lob parameter is in the same dataset , But Year parameter is from different Dataset(Year_Param_DS).But If I am passing second parameter (Year) like Sum(Fields!Year_list.Value, "Year_Param_DS") i am not able to open the popup.
If i am removing the sum word Main report is giving an error that "Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current dataset scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified dataset scope."e syntax (I am working using MDX query) to pass two parameter through url, one from same dataset and 2nd is from another dataset.Or it is not possible to pass the value field from other Dataset in URL (Go to URL option).
I have a Report that I want to access that has a parameter input for the date, Production_Date. I want to allow the user to use the DateTimePicker to select the date to use for Production_Date. I can't seem to find the correct way to format what I'm tring to do. My production date field is in a format without punctuation so that it becomes:
which gives me a value that I want to send as a parameter for the Reporting Services report that I have located on a tab in my project. The report is:
Me.ReportViewer1
I want to send the ProductionDate to the report where the report looks for Production_Date. Obviously, I 'm very new to this. I'd appreciate any suggestions. As it runs now, the default date is loaded (today's date) from the expression I calculated in Reporting services:
=(Now.Month*1000000)+(Now.Day*10000)+Now.Year
This is a big roadblock right now and I can't seem to put together a legal means to pass this value. Thanks for any help.
I have two reports in my project. One is summary and the other is drill through. In Summary report I have StartDate and EndDate Parameters which are DateTime type. Language settings on my workstation are set to Canadian English, and so are in the IE. When I deploy the reports to the Sharepoint WebParts based reporting portal, the reports run fine individually. However, when I try to drill through from summary report to the detail report, the following error is displayed, where the StartDate is 13/07/2007 (Canadian format dd/MM/yyyy):
The value provided for the report parameter 'StartDate' is not valid for its type. (rsReportParameterTypeMismatch)
Why do the reports run fine individually? Obviously something is wrong with Report Server processing the parameters, that it converts the date format to US English only when passing parameters to drill through report. This problem is eliminated when I change the language settings to US-English on my workstation.
Any ideas how can this be fixed, if at all? It would certainly be not feasible to have all the users change their settings from Canadian to US-English.
I have many MS Access reports that process recordsets obtained from a MySQL database, based on a user-selected date range. This uses VBA and input boxes. I'm now creating .aspx pages to get the user input via the web, and am successful in creating a DataSet. My .aspx.vb code includes using Automation to open the Access report in Snapshot Viewer (DoCmd.OutputTo). How do I pass the DataSet to MS Access to replace using recordsets?
My VBA code in Access used to be this:
Code Snippet
Dim ws As Workspace Dim strConnection As String Dim dbs As Database
Set dbs = ws.OpenDatabase("", True, True, strConnection)
Set rst_chg = dbs.OpenRecordset("SELECT ...")
'process the recordset ...
I'm thinking I should be able to eliminate most of this code and Set rst_chg = DataSet. I've been successful with using WriteXml in the .aspx.vb page and Application.ImportXML in my VBA to pass the data using XML, but this writes to the hard drive, and also creates a database in Access (overhead I would rather not have to deal with). Again, is there a way to open the DataSet directly in my VBA code?
I tried to pass parameter from one report to another report. I can send the parameter using following option: I used jump to url option and write the following expression:
Is there a way to pass the column name as a query parameter?? If I use '@Question', like below, I get an error. If I change it to the actual name of the column 'Question1', it works fine. However, I need it to be dynamic so I can pass the column name [Question1, Question2, Question3, etc...] in and not have to define this for each question.
Doesn't Work!!
Code:
SELECT
1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN @ColumnName > 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*) AS 'Good', 1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN @ColumnName = 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)/ COUNT(*) AS 'OK', 1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN @ColumnName < 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*) AS 'Poor'
FROM tableA AS A INNER JOIN tableB AS B ON A.SessionID = B.SessionID
WHERE (A.SurveyID = @SurveyID) AND (A.SubmitDate BETWEEN @BeginDate AND @EndDate)
Works, but I need to pass in the column name dynamically.
Code:
SELECT
1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN Question1 > 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*) AS 'Good', 1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN Question1 = 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)/ COUNT(*) AS 'OK', 1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN Question1 < 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*) AS 'Poor'
FROM tableA AS A INNER JOIN tableB AS B ON A.SessionID = B.SessionID
WHERE (A.SurveyID = @SurveyID) AND (A.SubmitDate BETWEEN @BeginDate AND @EndDate)
I have a query :Exec 'Select * From Receiving Where Code In (' + @pCode + ')'@pCode will contain more than one string parameter, eg : A1, A2, A3How can i write that parameters, I try use :set @pCode='A1','A2','A3'but get an error : Incorrect syntax near ','Please help meThanks
I am passing the partameters to MS Report Viewer control to view the report. It is working fine with normal parameters like 'abc', 'Jon' etc. But fails with parameters having special characters like 'abc+', 'Version 1.1 Part 1', 'R1.8 RC' throws error " The parameter is missing a value"
Hi,Could you inform me programmatically how can I pass LinkButton text value as Sql Query parameter?I tried the 1 command.CommandText = "SELECT DISTINCT [Description] FROM [Projects] WHERE ([Type] = " & SqlDbType.Text = LinkButton12.Text & ")" but it does not work!!! Thanks in advance!!!!
ActivityDate is a report parameter set up as a date that I'm trying to pass into an Oracle query. The specific WHERE clause is
WHERE PROJ_DATE = TO_DATE(:ActivityDate,'YYYY-MM-DD') When I run the query from the Data tab, all works as expected. I suspect the reason is that I under the date as 2005-12-31. If I enter the date as 12/31/05, the query fails ("Not a valid month") unless I change to function's format to 'MM/DD/YYYY' in which case I, again, get good results. But when I run the report from Preview, I get no results at all no matter what format I use in the function. Any chance any of you have seen this and know how to work with it?
I just changed my Access 2002 database to a SQL Server ADP project. Ihad a form where the user entered a value into a text box and when acommand button on the form was clicked a Report was opened. The reportsrecord source is a query. The query uses the value from the form textbox to restrict the query.Table name = EggsTableone of the columns in the table is named: EggColorForm name = EggColorFormForm text box name = ColorTextBoxThis sql worked for the query before I converted to SQL:SELECT EggsTable.EggColorFROM EggsTableWHERE (((EggsTable.EggColor)=[Forms]![EggColorForm]![ColorTextBox]));This no longer works. Can I change the syntax somehow to get this towork? I tried dropping the brackets around the word "Forms", I trieddropping all the square brackets, etc., nothing worked.I also tried just opening the report with the report's Server Filterproperty set to:EggColor=N'Forms.EggColorForm.ColorTextBox'I tried using the Report's open event to pass the form value directlyto the report. I tried setting a variable from the text box value onthe form. So far, nothing works. Any ideas?
I'm selecting the last latitude & longitude input from my database to put into the Google maps javascript function. This is how I retrieve the longitude: <asp:SqlDataSource ID="lon" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:LocateThis %>" SelectCommand= "SELECT @lon= SELECT [lon] lon FROM [location] WHERE time = (SELECT MAX(time) FROM [location] where year < 2008)"> </asp:SqlDataSource> I wish to input the latitude & longitude into the JAVASCRIPT function (contained in the HTML head before the ASP) something like this: var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map"));var lat = <%=lat%>;var lon = <%=lon%>;var center = new GLatLng(lat,lon);map.setCenter(center, 13); However, lat & long do not contain the retrieved result but rather a useless System.something string. How do I assign the retrieved results to these variables and port them over to Javascript as required? Many thanks!
