SQL Reporting :: Passing A Multivalue Parameter To ReportViewer
Jan 4, 2010
I have created an ASP.NET page and included a ReportViewer on the page.
I have created a report with a parameter for an item ID for a row from the database.
After generating a multivalue parameter, I send it to the report, but only the first item in the list is displaying.
In my included code, I am using a FOR loop to generate a list of ID's I want to print a detail for (one detail per page), but eventually I am going to allow a user to select the ID's from a GridView, generate the reports and then print.
Here is the code that build the multivalue parameter:
List<ReportParameter> paramList = new List<ReportParameter>();
ReportParameter param = new ReportParameter("ParmWorkOrderID");
// Create the ArrayList of values to pass
ArrayList values = new ArrayList();
for (int i = 19; i < 50; i++)
{
param.Values.Add(i.ToString());
}
// Add the parameter to the list of ReportParameters
paramList.Add(param);
// Set the reports parameters
this.ReportViewer1.LocalReport.SetParameters(new ReportParameter[] {param});
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?
Im facing problem in one of the reports while passing multivalue parameter from ssrs to SP.
please note that in cases suppose there are single word in multivalue paramtere then its works corretly,in that scenario i have made one function see below:-
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 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 am having two tables in a database linked each other by means of primary and foreign key. In my report I'm having parameters but itzz not workin.
When I use just two tables I can able to view my report, when I deploy parameter in my report it didnt affect my report in any form it showing normal report without parameter. How to pass parameter in it.
Using ReportViewer control v9 in .aspx page - When displaying date type parameter field in my report nothing happens when calendar icon is clicked (no calendar page, no error) in ie 8. FoxFire works.Same report works fine when viewed directly on the report server in ie8.
I am creating a report using sql reporting services (.rdlc) in asp.net web application. I am displaying master records using List because I need to display one record in one page. In each page now I want to display the child records in a table inside the same List control.
For example: In mater records there will be Department Name, Department Location, Department Zip. In child records there will be Employee Name, Employee Id, Employee Salary, Employee Start Date. There is a link between Dapartment and Employee table by Department Id. I want to display one department record in one page and the all employee of that department in same page in a table. And next page of the report will have other department record and respective employees in a table.
I am being able to display Department records in each page but not being able to display Employees records in a table for particular Department Id. For this I used List control.
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 once asked for a way to let a linkbutton pass more than one value in the commandArgument and then I reached the approach where I pass a string of multiple values separated by any character and split it into it's original parts...that didn't work out I don't know what was wrong with the splitting!
Now I tried the only solution I got, which is created a user control of the LinkButton and add properties to accept any values nedeed!...could you please tell me what's wrong with my 2 approaches and which is better ?
The first question can be found here : link text
and this is the code for the user control approach >>
MultivaluedLinkButton.ascx : <asp:LinkButton ID="LnkBtnSort" runat="server" Text="Sort" OnClick="LnkBtnSort_Clicked"/> MultivaluedLinkButton.ascx.cs : public partial class MultivaluedLinkButton : System.Web.UI.UserControl { public event EventHandler Click; private int _sortingType; private string _sortingFactor; private string _text; public int SortingType { set { _sortingType = value; } get { return _sortingType; } } public string SortingFactor { set { _sortingFactor = value; } get { return _sortingFactor.ToString(); } } //public string Text //{ // set { _text = value; } // get { return _text.ToString(); } //} protected void LnkBtnSort_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e) { if( Click != null ) { this.Click(this, EventArgs.Empty); } } } Finally, Here's the implementation of my control inside an aspx page: protected void MultivaluedLinkButton1_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e) { MultivaluedLinkButton ctrl = (MultivaluedLinkButton)sender; using (SqlConnection cn1 = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["testConnectionString"].ConnectionString)) { using (SqlCommand cm1 = new SqlCommand(commandString2, cn1)) { cm1.Parameters.Add("@arrange_by_id", System.Data.SqlDbType.Int); cm1.Parameters["@arrange_by_id"].Value = ctrl.SortingType; cn1.Open(); using (SqlDataReader dr1 = cm1.ExecuteReader()) { SortBy_rpt.DataSource = dr1; SortBy_rpt.DataBind(); } } } }
The item template of the repeater in the implementation page :
I've a MDX Query that has where clause as shown below.I'm designing report using SSRS 2008. How can i pass date as parameter? I tried to setup @from and @to as parameter but not working?
WHERE ( {[Date Central].[Calendar Date].[2010-04-01 00:00:00]:[Date Central].[Calendar Date].[2010-08-30 00:00:00]} )
need it to work as WHERE ( {[Date Central].[Calendar Date].[@From]:[Date Central].[Calendar Date].[@To]} )
One of our customers has a report with a single value string parameter that has over 1000+ possible values. selecting single value from 1000+ choices results in bad UI, among other things.create another parameter that acts a filter for the other parameter. So you would have Param1 with say 25 choices and selecting a choice would narrow down the option for the second parameter.Is this the best way. What is the best practice for handling these kinds of parameters?
I want to do ReportViewer, and i want have created a DataSet. I fail to drag the data table from ToolBox. My ToolBox doesn't exist any data table. The output i want to archive is something like this in my DataSet
Using the Asp.net Report Viewer in VS2010 in Remote mode we need to allow the user to use the default controls on the report viewer for entering in the parameters before running the report.
As permissions need to be set on the data we have a UserId hidden parameter on all the reports and the plan was to allow the user to enter in the parameters as normal and then we would add [programmatically] the userId parameter before the report is run.
The data in the report would then return the data that the user had permission to view. [We use the SSRS web service to populate a treeview with a list of available reports for the user to select.]
I guess I'm having trouble with whats the best approach for this. I need to pass the userId parameter value to the ReportViewer and not to the server report. I'm aware that you can use the web service to manage the parameters completely outside of the control but its not an option for us at the minute.
So in summary:
User Selects Parameters in the Report Viewer. Code behind adds the UserId parameter value either as the report is run or initially when its loaded and the viewer passes all the parameters to the server.
For many of the pages I build, I don't wish to have the ReportViewer visible until firing an event such as a button click. Using .Net 4.0 and ReportViewer10, however, throws the error "Message: Sys.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: panelsCreated[1]" if you try to keep a panel containing the ReportViewer hidden until after a button click.Since I couldn't find much about this topic online, I'd basically been working around this for some time until I figured out today that if you reset the ReportViewer ReportPath in the code behind in the button click (even if it's the same path as in the aspx page), you can successfully keep the ReportViewer hidden until the button click.
I have created many reports in my ASP.Net 3.5 app's and using VB Code-behind. I have the following code that will take the report from the reportviewer and on a click of a button, export it to PDF. So now, I can hide the reportviewer and just have the button click events generate my PDF's. I do not know how to tweak this code to enable me to print directly from another button's click event without the reportviewer being visible.

What I am looking for is how to fill the tableadapter that I am using in the .xsd dataset file to the I do not have to incorporate reportviewers anymore?I know my code above would need to be adjusted so that its not looking at ReportViewer1 for the Report/Data... But I do not know how to do this.
I have a ReportViewer control on an ASP.Net page and an RDLC set up that uses a TableAdapter that pulls one record. This works fine.I'd like to have the *same* RDLC use a different TableAdapter (schema of table is the exact same, but may have multiple records). I've tried putting two DataSets in my RDLC and having the code dynamically select which one to use, but it's not working quite right for me.
i am able to bind ds to GridView. So can i also bind ds to reportViewer???I have search online and mostly require to add new DataSet(right-click project ->add new item->DataSet ) and Report(right-click project ->add new item->Report) to bulid the report.Is there a way for me to bind ds to reportViewer like i bind ds to GridView??
