SQL Reporting :: Passing Encrypted Parameters Values In URL?
Feb 20, 2010
I am having two reports Report1 and Report2. From Report1 i have to call report2 while clicking link.
I have acheived this by using Jump to report and also i have passed some parameters to report2.
Using report viewer i am viewing this report1. In link field right click properties i am getting report2 url. In new browser if paste the report 2 url with paramters values URL report is coming and also it allows to change report parametes in address bar.
Is it possible to excrypt parameters values while calling report2
I am trying to use a parameter field where there is a subreport in my main report but i keep getting the error "subreport cannot be shown" when running the report.
p.s - I have just set the parameters the same in the subreport as the main report.
I am having problems getting my first report to show data when passing 2 DateTime session and 1 string session parameters to my report. When I remove the 2 DateTime parameters returns data, but with DateTime Parameters, no data. The SQL statement returns correctly. It seems my 2 date params get to the report as NULL. [Code]....
Report Parameters:
dtFromSelect = string - internal
dtToSelect = string - internal
qreStorename = string - internal
For report parameters, if I use DateTime instead of String, I get this error
The definition of the report 'Main Report' is invalid.
The property 'DefaultValue' of report parameter 'dtToSelect' doesn't have the expected type
I have a web page that displays some data. When they click a submit button, I want to run a report. But I would like to pass the start year/month and end year/month values that the user already entered on the web page to the report. Here is what my url looks like when the report is displayed:
But my report displays the 2 textboxes for my StartYYMM and EndYYMM parameters as empty. What am I doing wrong? I did a google search and I saw something about using ReportServer instead of ReportManager. I notice at the top of the browser when I run my report, it reads "Report Manager - Windows Internet Explorer". Is this correct?
I am developing a web app containing an embedded Reportviewer control, a dropdownlist and Ajax TabContainer. The ReportViewer refreshes the report for every tab click in the TabContainer or for every SelectedIndexChanged event of the dropdownlist. The report I am generating is a 6-month trending report displaying statistical data for the last 6 months from the month and year selected in the dropdownlist. I have used Report Parameter to pass the selected date value (from dropdownlist) from the code to the Report (.rdlc). Using Expressions in report file I have displayed last 6 months names from the passing date value. The C# code looks like this.
ReportParameter p1 = new ReportParameter("ReportParameter1", [code]....
The problem is I am not able to set parameters more than once using SetParameters. I will need to pass the parameter value for (a)Everytime the dropdownlist item for month is changed (b) Everytime the TabContainer ActiveTab is changed (c) When the page loads for first time displaying the report for first time. Can someone advise how to pass different values for the same report parameter under different scenarios? Can we change the parameter value passed once it has been set using SetParameters?
I have 3 parameters say A,B,C. I want that when I select values in A and B only then C comes alive. I am using cascading parameter in SSRS 2005.
I know that in cascading parameters, one parameters passes a value to other one and it comes alive. But I want that 2 parameters pass the value to a single one.
dont say to use multi select as multi select is used only when we have to multi select from one parameter.
Also one thing how can I use radio buttons in SSRS 2005 and how to hide null checkbox when allowing null values in calender control.
I am creating a DataSet to attach to a report (*.rdlc). In the DataSet is a TableAdapter that has the GetData(@start, @end) function. Can someone please explain how I get values in to @start and @end? I have searched and seen that it might have something to do with overriding the Fill function in the DataSet code behind file. Please let me know.
I want to passed stored procedure parameters from crystal report to pass those parameter dynamically by arraylist because user will pass parameters by using data driven web pages (can be different reports with different parameter). how can i pass through parameter array lists to crystal report setreportparameters fields.
My code;
public void ConfigureReports(ArrayList valuesLists,ArrayList parameterLists) { rptReportViewer.RefreshReport(); DataBaseHelper.myReportConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo(); DataBaseHelper.defineConnection = null;
I have a requirement whereby my users need to be able to select the options in the 'departments' dropdown list (multi-valued parameter) of the report based on his designation. For instance, normal users should only see his own department while the administrator could see all the departments in the organization etc...The departments that the users could select are already retrieved in my code (asp.net). Now I need to know how to pass those values over to the reportviewer to populate the departments dropdown list in there. Any idea how to come about doing that?
I need to design two apps who can interact with each other. The first app, App A needs to send an encrypted string over to App B and App B will have to decrypt it and do some stuff. How would I go about that?
App A - http://MachineA/default.aspx App B - http://MachineB/default.aspx
I tried encrypting the data using AESCryptoServiceProvider and it returns a byte[]. Now how would I transfer it over to another application? Via query strings?
So if i encrypt connectionstrings and sections, how will i get their values inside my code?I don't want to decrypt the web.config, i just want to read the encrypted values.There must be a class.Maybe something from ConfigurationManager?I don't suppose it's automatically decrypted?
In this answer to my question of how to insert data into SQL Server he mentioned passing parameters instead of string concatenation like I currently have.
Is this really necessary for security? If so, what exactly is passing parameters? When i google it I get a lot about stored procedures. Is that what I want, I do not know about stored procedures....yet.
EDIT:
Ok, here is what I got. It seems to update the database correctly and eventually I will change the hard coded ints to inputs from a label. confirm if how I did this is not vulnerable to any sql injection or hacks.

when i worked in .NET 1.1 i used to pass parameters to user control using the method- (if the name of the usercontrol is "tables")
dim r As tables = CType(Page.LoadControl("~/usercontrol/tables.ascx"), tables)
and calling public property of the usercontrols.
the problem is that i can't the way to do it in 2008 ver of .NET, it is not recognize the usercontrol.... how can i pass parameters to the usercontrol in run time?
i have a dropdownlist with seven different optins like (date, subject, press, cia, media...) and user will select one of the item from the dropdownlist and click on search button to get the results.here is my repository class GetInquires method which accepts 7 parameters but it will pass only one prameters at a time to the storeproc and in case of Date (it will pass both from/to)
I wanted to know if we can pass values from Parent page (in this case from Default.aspx page) to the user control and maintain those values on subsequent "Add/Load" of user control.
So in short, if I click the "Add" button it loads my "webusercontrol" and also I am able to pass my default.aspx dropdownlist value to this dynamically loaded user control and assign it to a "Label or Textbox" which resides in my "webusercontrol", now the problem is that the value doesn't persists! What I meant is , when I click "Add" button again the "webusercontrol" gets loaded again perfectly but now all my "Label's" in webusercontrol has the new selected value from the default.aspx dropdownlist.
So say for instance I have a Dropdownlist in Default.aspx page with Values "Apple, BlackBerry, Nokia" and initial value to be passed is "Apple", I click the "Add" button, now my "Label" inside webusercontrol has the value "Apple", perfect! Next when I click "Add" button again and select a different value to be passed this time say "BlackBerry" now I have 2 webusercontrol loaded on the page, so that means I have 2 "Labels" with different ID's, but now my first Label initially had the value "Apple" because that's what I had passed and now when I passed the value "Blackberry" both the labels of my webusercontrol has the value "BlackBerry" instead of one being "Apple" and another "BlackBerry"
Is there a way to resolve this issue? may be Dictionary List?
I have a page with a lot of pictures on it. I want the user to be able to click on the picture and either bring up a popup type of window passing it the Param name and value , or to have the picture be replaced with this object.
I have a custom ExpressionBuilder in whixh I'm trying to add a list of optional parameters. My method would be declared as follows: public static string GetResource(string expression, params object[] parameters) { }
The way I'm calling this method from an ASP.NET page is this at the moment: <ext:Button ID="btnEdit" runat="server" Text="<%$ AppResources : edit_text %>"> Does anyone know how to perform this method call, but using optional parameters?
[WebMethod] [ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat = ResponseFormat.Json)] public string MyWebMethod(string foo, string bar) { // DataContractJsonSerializer to deserialize foo and bar to // their respective FooClass and BarClass objects. return "{"Message":"Everything is a-ok!"}"; } I'll call it from the client via: var myParams = { "foo":{"name":"Bob Smith", "age":50},"bar":{"color":"blue","size":"large","quantity":2} }; $.ajax({ type: 'POST', url: 'https://mydomain.com/WebServices/TestSvc.asmx/MyWebMethod', data: JSON.stringify(myParams), contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8', dataType: 'json', success: function (response, status) { alert('Yay!'); }, error: function (xhr, err) { alert('Boo-urns!'); } }); However, this yields the following error (a breakpoint on the first line in MyWebMethod() is never hit): {"Message":"No parameterless constructor defined for type of u0027System.Stringu0027.","StackTrace":" at System.Web.Script.Serialization.ObjectConverter.ConvertDictionaryToObject(IDictionary2 dictionary, Type type, JavaScriptSerializer serializer, Boolean throwOnError, Object& convertedObject) at System.Web.Script.Serialization.ObjectConverter.ConvertObjectToTypeInternal(Object o, Type type, JavaScriptSerializer serializer, Boolean throwOnError, Object& convertedObject) at System.Web.Script.Serialization.ObjectConverter.ConvertObjectToTypeMain(Object o, Type type, JavaScriptSerializer serializer, Boolean throwOnError, Object& convertedObject) at System.Web.Script.Services.WebServiceMethodData.StrongTypeParameters(IDictionary2 rawParams) at System.Web.Script.Services.RestHandler.InvokeMethod(HttpContext context, WebServiceMethodData methodData, IDictionary`2 rawParams) at System.Web.Script.Services.RestHandler.ExecuteWebServiceCall(HttpContext context, WebServiceMethodData methodData)","ExceptionType":"System.MissingMethodException"}
I'd like to pass in two string parameters and use DataContractJsonSerializer to write new Foo and Bar objects. Am I missing something?
I want to develop a windows service which will be accepting a datatable from an aspx page. Both the windows service and the website are hosted on same machine.
Also I need to set a date and time on which this service is to work. this date and time are to change according to customer needs. once again the date and time are to be fed from the aspx page.
I have a dynamic created drop down list - and I set the event of it to be like this:
ddlAnswer.ID = "ddlistAnswer" + QuestionID; ddlAnswer.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(ddlAnswer_SelectedIndexChanged);
Please note that drop down list is dynamic, and in selectedIndexChanged, I would like to pass the "QuestionID" to that selectedindexchanged to work on my logic. Is there a way to pass it to that method as command argument or something?
Code: protected void ddlAnswer_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { //wanting that question id here }
