I am new to SSRS and I cannot find how to output stuff into the list, every tutorial is for parameters.
Currently, I have a string in the textbox which looks ugly and I would like to put it to the list so users have a dropdown button.
The string is like "value1,value2,value3,value4,...." and it is all in one textbox.
I want somehow to put values in the column, but in one cell, so that users can collapse that.
THANKS!

I need a lab report that has several pages. Each test has a unique reference number and I would like it to appear in the header according to what I have on the page. At the moment I only see one reference number and it remains unchanged after switching to another page. See attached image.
If possible, I would like to get rid of the SampleNo column so that its value is only in the header
The easiest way to do this is to reference the the textbox in your tablix that contains the "Sample No.".
Click the textbox that you have highlighted in the tablix, show the properties window (F4 in Visual Studio - can't remember in Report Builder, I think View/Properties).
Find the Name property of the textbox, this is often the name of the field it contains but not always.
In the example below the textbox name is 'oYear`
Next, set the expression in your header to be something like
=FIRST(ReportItems!oYear.Value)
Change oYear to whatever textbox name in your tablix is.
ReportItems refers to the rendered object name so here we just get the first on each page.
Here the first two pages from a small sample of data which groups by year.
I'm trying to send off selected values from a ListBox on a form to a report via parameter passing in a URL. As of right now, I don't have access to the report itself to edit right now. Reading up on SSRS parameters passing through URLs, it is stated to just declare the variable multiple times, but trying that doesn't get me anywhere.
What I want for the end result is the user to choose the values from a form, click a button and have the report open in a new browser window. Up until now I can deal with different datatypes, but the listboxes are something I have never encountered before and can't find much information about.
My current logic for this is to loop through the listbox selections, and keep the values stored until I generate the url. When the window is opened, I want only the selected values from the listbox on my form to be the only values selected in the SSRS report. Any help would be appreciated!
Check if you need multi select or not
ListBox1.SelectionMode = SelectionMode.MultiExtended
ListBox1.Items.Add("1")
ListBox1.Items.Add("2")
ListBox1.Items.Add("3")
ListBox1.Items.Add("4")
get the selection from the list box like this
For Each xSelection As String In ListBox1.SelectedItems
MsgBox(xSelection)
Next
I am trying to use this custom code in SSRS
public function ColorScaleRYG(value, minValue, maxValue) as string
in a custom code in ssrs
and then in a Fill expression
=Code.ColorScaleRYG(Sum(Fields!SalesAmount.Value), 0, 100000)
which should break my values in a group and assign shades of colors from red(0) to green(max valer).
But for some reason nothing happens/
What am I missing?
I need something like that:
I wont be able to give you the specific answer as it is with your code, however this is how I go about it.
In Design Mode I Right click the required Cell and Select "Text Box Properties.
I then go to the Fill Tab and click on the expression button next to Fill Color.
I then User something like the following code
=IIF(Fields!Total_Eligible.Value>100,"MidnightBlue","Silver")
You should be able to Stack this IIF Commands.
It is just a matter of changing the Fields! field to the approriate variable and then the conditions.
This Returns the following Values
Hope this Helps.
Post Note - Probably dont use these colors as they aren't easy to read , I just grabbed two at random off an existing report to demonstrate.
I have a list view with two columns and I'd like to be able to save the value of the leftmost column for the selected row, or even better make it so that once the user clicks on either the right or left column of any given row, the entire row selects and not only the field that was clicked.
However I'm struggling to get the field saved which is more crucial than the row highlighting.
In a list box it would be
string = listbox1.selecteditem.tostring
However this doesn't seem to work for the list view. It won't even let me put "Selecteditem" and instead requires I put selecteditems, however this doesn't seem to do what I want either.
When I use the code:
string = ListView1.SelectedItems.ToString
I get the result of
string = "System.Windows.Forms.ListView+SelectedListViewItemCollection"
Despite the selected field actually being "EGG".
I need to have two columns so can't switch to using a listbox, although that seems like it would be the easier solution.
When I tried googling this question I could only find things for C#
Set FullRowSelect on to get the entire row to select.
SelectedItems.ToString refers to the collection of selected items.
SelectedItems(0).Text refers to the first selected item's text property.
I am developing a vba form for employee database, in that there is a search criteria for userid and employees name with the userid should be displayed in a list box control which comes from a single table
I need to populate a list box with value from a table according to a value in a text box which act as a search box (eg: userid)
Please help me how to do this
You question is hard to answer because it depends on some things like data types of the search field etc. So this answer is going to be vague on some of those points...
First off you need to create your listbox with search criteria that will look on the form for the search value and filter accordingly.
You do this by setting the the RowSource property of the listbox. HEre is an example rowsource for a a listbox that looks for a textbox on a form for its filter value...
SELECT tblAgencies.AgencyID, tblAgencies.OrganizationName
FROM tblAgencies
WHERE (((tblAgencies.OrganizationName)
Like "*" & nz([Forms]![frmMainMenu2]![txtSearchAgencies],"") & "*"))
ORDER BY tblAgencies.OrganizationName;
The key part is the Like... line. A couple of things about it...notice that the query looks to the form for some criteria. You see that in the [Forms]![frmMainMenu2]![txtSearchAgencies] part of the query. So there is a search textbox on frmMainMenu2 that is called txtSearchAgencies.
Notice also that I am using NZ function to ensure that the peek onto that textbox returns at least an empty string. Finally notice that is uses the Like operator with wild cards at both ends so that the user can type a partial string.
Finally...next to your search box put a command button to execute the filter/search. All that it has to do is REQUERY the listbox like this...
Me.lstAgencies.Requery.
You could also try to Requery at the OnChange event which would filter as they type. But if your query is slow this may not work well.

Let's say you have a table TABLE1 that has fields userid, employee.
You should create a form that has a combobox(named boxid) and textbox(named EdtEmployee).
Define a rowsource value of combobox like
SELECT table1.userid FROM table1 WHERE employee like EdtEmployee & "*";
Then define a lostfocus event of a textbox like this
Private Sub EdtEmployee_LostFocus()
BoxId.Requery
End Sub
I hope, this works for you
I agree with mik.
I just would use an AfterUpdate event instead of the LostFocus which I've neber used.
