Report only showing a single record

I have a DataSet which is defined as "SELECT * FROM Table". There are MANY
records in Table. However, the report only shows a single record/page. I
placed the fields on the report in the "Body". What am I missing here?Nevermind... Got it. It's the List item.

of the controls that know about multiple rows. You need to place either a
table control or a list control and then drag and drop onto them.

Report not returning all the records

Hello EveryBody,
I am designing report using report designer...I have defined two dataset..
First Dataset is just returning all the Category(i.e select CategoryName
from Category)
and in the second dataset i am passing that CategoryName to get all the
products belongs to that category...
So basically CagegoryName is my dropdown list to select category... Now
whiile is designing the report in the report body i have drag and drop all
the fields of second dataset...with their lebels.. but when i preview the
report i am just able to see first record even though each category has
atleast 10 products...
my sample textbox value is as =First(Fields!ProductName.Value, "Product_Set")
Eventhough i removed First and tried still it is returning one record...
Pls help
thxWhat you want in this case is to have one report with another report
embedded as a subreport. You will want to read up on subreports.

to list. Then that gets passed as a parameter to the second dataset that you
want to display. My guess is that you are dropping textboxes on the report
design surface. What you want to do is drop a table (it will default to 3
fields). Then drag and drop fields onto it. Add additional columns by doing
a right mouse click on the table.

Report Models Data Source View

How does the report model know what data source view to use? I could not find it defined anywhere in the .smdl file.

My problem is this. I have a Report Model project with two data sources, two data source views and multiple report models. When I try and bind a data source to an entity in the report model I do not get to choose which data source view to use to choose what table/view I want to bind the entity too and only the tables in one of my DSV's shows up. When I first created it, it worked fine. It automatically selected the correct view and table and was successfully created but now when I open the project, that correlation is lost.

Any suggestions or help is appreciated, thanks.

I found out that if I close my solution and reopen it, the mappings are fixed. Does anyone know if this is a bug or if I could be doing something wrong? I can not find any documentation anywhere describing how data models are mapped to data source views. I really wish you can manually specify what datasource view you want to be using for each model. The autogenerate is nice to initially create the model but if you have already altered the elements or attributes in the model it can be a hassle. Any thoughts?

Report Model Security Integration with SSAS 2005

Hi,

I have a question here for report model generated on top of SSAS 2005. If security has been defined in SSAS 2005 cube where RoleA only have access to certain dimension, is this security setting integrated with the report model and propogate down to the report builder when used where RoleA users have no access to dimension allowed?

Thanks,

J Lim

Unfortunately you're going to have to duplicate these security settings in the report model layer, too. You'll need to connect to Reporting Services inside Management Studio and edit the model item security on the report model in question from there. Sorry nobody answered your question months ago.sql

Report layout:- Inconsistencies between page height and HTML Rendered

I'm having problems with what is displayed in the browser being different to what is defined in the RDL and what is exported to PDF.
I have set height to 21cm and width to 29.7 with 0cm margins. There is one table in the report.
When I export the report to PDF its fine, all pages are 21x29.7cm, landscape.
However, when I view the report in the report manager (in a browser) the pages are much longer than they should be... nearly twice as long (as if to make the report portrait again?)
Has anybody had this problem with lanscape reports? Any ideas on how to resolve this?
I've made lots of different landscape reports and get the problem every time. I find it hard to believe that no one else is having this issue...
ThanksI'm having this problem, too, but since the reports export to PDF no problem, i've considered it a low priority. I'm not even convinced it's a bug, as such, due to the nature of the web and the fact that web-delivered information generally runs on pages a great deal longer than standard portrait-sized pages. That is, I've chosen to consider the page-length property to be a PDF-specific property, and not even applicable to ASP-delivered reports. It doesn't bother me to have users browsing the reports online in this format as long as they can ultimately export them to PDF if they wish.

What does bother me is the seeming randomness of the length of the ASP-delivered report pages. Some of the pages seem double-lengthed, others triple or more. What gives?

|||I know what you, however, its my users that are complaining about it!
If there was some way of being able to "lock" the table headings it wouldnt be a problem - is there any way this can be done? It is one of the most requested features of my users.
Any help is much apprerciated.|||

In SQL Server 2005, you can 'lock' the headers for a table or a matrix.

If you right click the border of the table in the Layout pane of report designer, on the General tab in the Table Properties dialog, there is a check box called "Header should remain visible while scrolling". If you check that, in HTML the table header will always be shown.

I don't know why it exactly occurs but if you change the Interactive page size to be a bit larger then the html is rendered as the pdf and the pdf is unaltered. Interactive page is is reached by clicking on the yellow right hand side of the report off the actual report and then in the properties pane.|||

my report is displayed as one long page when viewed in the browser, while it is displaying correctly in several pages when exported to PDF. Can you please helpe me!!
