SQL Reporting :: Using Connection Strings In The Report Server Than The Datasource In 2005?
Oct 18, 2010
I am using a datasource in the report server where all the reports use that shared datasource while calling the reports from asp.net pages.
Now, as asp.net pages uses the connection string for the databases which is assigned in the web.config file, i want the reports also use the same connection string because you don't need to change on both places( web.config and report server datasource).
I want to develop reporting service application in asp.net 2.0 with SQL server 2005.
I install sql server 2005 in my remote machine with BIDS. I need to develop reporting service application in my machine i have vs 2005 and sql server express edition.
How to download/install BIDS or Report Builder for vs 2005 in my machine.
I try to connect sql server 2005 through OBDC connection bt i face a error, i face this error
ERROR [08001] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ERROR [01000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
OdbcConnection conn = new OdbcConnection("Driver={SQL Server};Server=test;UID=sa;PWD=java;");// test is my ODBC connection name string query = "INSERT INTO test VALUES ('" + textBox1.Text + "','" + textBox2.Text + "')"; OdbcCommand cmd = new OdbcCommand(query, conn); try { conn.Open(); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); MessageBox.Show("Record Inserted."); } finally { conn.Close(); }
This seems like a really silly question, but I've had a search around and I can't find anything about this. I've got a DB connection string that I'm creating in my web.config:-
[Code]....
and
[Code]....
but I need this connection to be read only. I've defined all my linq objects with only gets on their properties, and none of my (MVC) repository classes have .SubmitChanges() methods in them so I'm 99% sure the system can't update this DB, but I would also like to set my DB connection to be RO if at all possible. I realise that ideally this should be done at the SQL server end and the user should be made RO, but that (for various reasons, out of my control) can't be done, so I wanted to lock down my connection as the app mustn't write to the DB.
Is there a "readonly" parameter I can apply to the connection string so that it would throw an error or discard the data if any updates were attempted?
I have a drop down with different domains(domain_id column) and a textbox (TextBoxComment) for comments. What I am trying to do is select the area, input a comment, click the button and have it save to the db. My connection string errors on compile.
I have a similar problem. I have one Dynamic Data Website and a thousand databases - one database for each customer. HTe databases have the same schema.
After the users log in I want the Dynamic Data Website to point to a database that belongs to that user.
I am developing a intranet for our company and right now have a problem on loading my report. I developed my report with Visual Studio 2005 and try to load it with Visual Web Developer. I downloaded ReportViewer as well. My database connection is Windows Authentication also. Here is my code in Visual Web Developer:
Imports Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms Imports System.Net Imports System.Security.Principal Partial Public Class ShowReport Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = New MyReportServerCredentials() End Sub
Private Sub form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles form1.Load Dim strReportURL As Uri strReportURL = New Uri("http://SERVERNAME/reportserver")...........................
I have a C# web service where I need to access a MS SQL DB. I see a way of creating a connection string in IIS and using it in the web application when connecting to the DB. In IIS in Connection strings you specify the name of the connection, server, user n pwd How can I use the name of connection string created in IIS in my c# app.? I am currently using
CustomerInfo customerinfo = new CustomerInfo(); // to return using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection("server=servername; initial Catalog=eostartest; Integrated Security=SSPI")) {...
But I would like to use the name of the connection string created in IIS Connection Strings manager. Do I have to add something in the web.config as well?

Exporting Datasource results to excel not just report data.My datasource is a stored procedure that returns a lot of fields that are not on the report itself. I would like the entire result of dataset to export to an excel file if user chooses.
I'm using an ODBC connection to connect a SQL 2005 database to my ASP.NET app in Visual Web Developer Express. I'm finding that the expected functionality that tutorials review does not work for ODBC connected databases the same way as it does for SQL databases created in the Web Developer. For example, I can't use stored procedures because the option to create one is disabled in the Web Developer, and if I create the stored procedure in SQL Server Management Studio Express, it doesn't show up in Web Developer because Web Developer only finds the system stored procedures, not the user-defined ones. I've seen other cases as well where database management options in Web Developer don't work with ODBC databases.
Am I missing something in my setup, or is there an inherent limitation with ODBC connected databases? Or, is this a limitation with using the Express versions of these development tools?
