Does anyone know the best way to join fields from several tables onto a single SSRS report for SSRS 2005 and SSRS 2008? 
|
|
|
|
|
Just guessing as it has been a while sine I did any SSRS, either concatenate the fields in the cell definition if you are in a matrix or create an expression and use that for the textbox content.
There is also the option of creating a formula and using that but I can remember the entry point for the code editor.
[edit]
Reread you question - several tables. I always use a stored proc and return 1 table as a result set

Will this work if you need to join several tables from different databases which would mean different data sources?
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible especially if the DBs are on the same server, if they are not then the hassle of linked servers is irritating. Investigate doing the join in code in the report. You can throw the values into variables an manipulte the vars.

Hi,
I am getting the above error when trying to connect to one database on mysql.
I don't get the same error when connecting to other databases on the same reason.
could you please help..

MySQL times out the connection if it is not used for a long time. The best thing to do is to make the connection only when you want to do the query, and then close it.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I am trying to create a database and it's tables programmatically. I am following the Instructions from the link below but i keep getting this error ExecuteNonQuery failure. Please can someone look at the code? especially the table generation part because the Database creates but there are no tables in it.

You should indicate what database server and programming language you are using, show (the relevant part of) the actual code, and the exact error message(s) you are getting; without any detailed information, all we can give you is a wild guess: maybe the table name you have chosen clashes with an SQL keyword.

I am using SQL Server 2008 R2 with C# running VS2010
The Code that gives the Error is this:
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
try
{
sb.AppendLine(string.Format("Starting to create {0} with login to {1}", this.tbDBName.Text, this.tbBTSAppUser.Text));
sb.AppendLine("Connecting to DB Server");
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
//Connect to the local, default instance of SQL Server.
string srvname = this.cbServers.SelectedItem as string;
Server srv;
if (srvname == null)
{
srv = new Server();
sb.AppendLine("Connected to local SQL server");
}
else
{
srv = new Server(srvname);
sb.AppendLine(string.Format("Connected to {0}", srvname));
}
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
//Define a Database object variable by supplying the server and the database name arguments in the constructor.
Database db = srv.Databases[this.tbDBName.Text.Trim()];
if (db != null)
{
if (MessageBox.Show(string.Format("The '{0}' already exists do you want to drop it?", this.tbDBName.Text), "Warning", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question) == DialogResult.Yes)
{
db.Drop();
}
else
{
if (MessageBox.Show(string.Format("Create the Tables and Stored Procedures for BT Error Manager on '{0}'?", this.tbDBName.Text), "Warning", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question) == DialogResult.Yes)
{
sb.AppendLine("Creating the Tables and Stored Procedures.");
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
db.ExecuteNonQuery(dbstring);
string ConnectionString = "Integrated Security=SSPI;" +
sb.AppendLine(string.Format("Created the Tables and Stored Procedures for BT Error Manager on '{0}'", this.tbDBName.Text));
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
}
sb.AppendLine("Proceed or select another database");
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
return;
}
}
sb.AppendLine("Creating the database.....");
db = new Database(srv, this.tbDBName.Text);
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
//Create the database on the instance of SQL Server.
db.Create();
sb.AppendLine("Created the database.");
sb.AppendLine("Creating the Tables and Stored Procedures.");
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
//'Reference the database and display the date when it was created.
db.ExecuteNonQuery(dbstring);
sb.AppendLine("Success!");
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Debug.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
sb.AppendLine("Failuer:" + ex.Message);
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
}
sb.AppendLine("Proceed or select another database");
this.tbProgress.Text = sb.ToString();
this.tbProgress.ScrollToCaret();
}

Please edit this message and put your code between <pre> tags so it is readable. You also need to indicate the line that gives the error and the exact error message that you see.

That is not possible.

Off-hand I'd guess that it is the GO lines.

I am using ROLLUP build in function
SELECT Product,COUNT(Total),
FROM myTable
Group BY TOTAL with ROLLUP
Percent - is calculated %.
when I run it for product I am getting NULL in ROLLUP row.
How to I replace with word?
so it looks like this
TOTAL 23 100 instead of NULL 23 100
|
|
|
|
|
SELECT
case when (Grouping(Product) = 1) then 'Total'
else Product
end Product,
COUNT(Product) as Counter
FROM myTable
Group BY Product with ROLLUP

Hi All,

Doesn't the backup-database-on-MSSQL2008-and-restore-it-on-azure work? Honestly, I have not use Azure yet, but because it worked on 2000-2005-2008, and I guess, it would work on Azure as well.
hth,

when i try to restore it the following error shown:
Statement 'RESTORE DATABASE' is not supported in this version of SQL Server.
|
|
|
|
|

I think there is edition mismatch between both the database instances where you are trying to backup and restore. Please check the edition of your source instance and destination of target instance. you cannot restore from a higher edition to a lower edition. For Ex- Restoration from standard edition backup to workgroup edition is not possible .
