    Actuate 10 - undesirable multiple SQL SP calls when using parameters

    Morning all, Here's the setup: Actuate 10 SQL datasource, using stored procs Reports have cascading parameters and "stand alone" parameters We have noticed that when you first open the report, the parameter procs are called once but when you open up the parameters window after a report has...

    localhost/reports vs localhost/reportserver

    Thanks for your response. Under IIS->Websites->Default Website I have both a Reports and ReportServer directory. I assume this is what you meant? I think I have configured the report manager in reporting services configuration. But this seems a bit tempramental and prone to hanging. Thanks...

    localhost/reports vs localhost/reportserver

    Hi, Hope someone can help me out here. I have been tasked with distributing some reports using reporting services. I have never used RS before. This was installed before my time so I cannot comment on many aspects of that. When I try to access http://localhost/reports, IE just sits there, no...

    Writing a record set to an Excel file

    Hello Using SQL Server 2K. I have a DTS package that uses a SQL task to build a result set in a global variable. This rowset is then output into a text file using an ActiveX task. while not objResults.EOF strRecord = ObjResults.GetString(2, -1, "~", "", "") objStream.WriteLine(strRecord)...

    Display the Internet Toolbar

    Hi, Thanks for you reply. I hadn't considered exporting and it would appear to be the easy option BUT on checking it seems that using a TEXT format you don't get any toolbars, not even the export one. Could this be because the TEXT format does not need the ActiveX viewer to display the report...

    Display the Internet Toolbar

    Okkkayyyy It seems that if I open the report through ePortfolio, I don't get the toolbars - but I do get them when I view it from the CMC. Tell me what I'm missing! mrees

    Display the Internet Toolbar

    Morning all, CE9 + CR9 (Still [sad]) We have a report that is in a character separated value format which a client (outside of our organisation so scheduling to an unmanaged disk is not possible) want to be able to save locally somewhere after viewing. When the report is viewed the internet...

    CE9 Event File create date won't change without long delay.

    Hi, This is probably more of a Windows question, but I think I would get a better answer here. We have 10 reports running from our test environment (SQL Server 2k) that should be triggered by an event file that the SQL sever creates, this is how it works on our live system (where there are...

    Log File or something?

    An audit trail is just really a list of information that you think is necessary to be recorded. In your case you wanted to know when your report was printed. The suggestion I gave was to record each time the report was run, by adding a new record to your list (The audit trail) It may be...

    Log File or something?

    Hi, Although you wouldn't know if a user has printed the report, you could see when it has been run. If you base the report on a stored procedure, you could write a record to an audit trail each time it is run to produce the report. Something like. CREATE PROC sMyReport AS --Add record to...

    On Demand Sub Report - Lots of Them

    Hi, In response to your first question, I would decide how many columns you can get away with in total to start, (and I would suggest a using a crosstab) and then use the select expert to restrict your data for that x number of coumns. You don't say what your data source is, but sometimes is...

    Help with Update Query

    Ignore all of that - its rubbish Sorry! But I would try to remove the correlated subqueries. I may have another go if I get time! mrees

    Help with Update Query

    This is a stab in the dark - but what about.. Update ALLPOL set POLH_AGENTTOTAL_PRIOR_Q = select sum(CSFD_QUARTER_DATA) from ALLCSFD join ALLPOL as P ON ALLCSFD.CSFDPOL = P.POLH_POLICY_SEQUENCE AND P.POLH_AGENT_ID=ALLPOL.POLH_AGENT_ID AND...

    Can it be done?

    t16turbo, Yes this can be done as you can base a CR on a SQL SP. We use a similar method to update an audit table that records sp run time and detail parameters that have been chosen e.g CREATE PROC dbo.MySP @MyEmployeeNo INT AS DECLARE @Ident AS INT --Update audit INSERT INTO...

    On Demand Sub Reports

    Are your container and subreports powered by stored procs/views/tables? I don't believe that it is your Crystal login that runs the report, it is the account that CE uses, something like CDRepadmin, its a network account, not a crystal account. Its this account that needs to have the correct...

    On Demand Sub Reports

    What is your Datasource, how are you connecting to it? What do you mean by "isn't working"? Possibly your Enterprise account doesn't have the required access rights? More info means better answer! mrees

    Crystal Reports Column Limit

    FifiCat, I think I know what this is. Crystal can sometimes get a little upset if you have many columns with long names. Try reducing the length and try again. I don't know if this is a Crystal or ODBC problem though. I appreciate what others have said about the number of columns, but as...

    Have you checked that your ODBC on your Crystal server has the exact same name and setup as your local machine? mrees
