SSRS URL Coding - vb.net

Is there a way to encode a URL for an SSRS Report?
I tried the following, but the output does not match what I need:
Code:
System.Uri.EscapeUriString("Receiving Inspection/Receiving Inspection End Of Lot")
Result:
Receiving%20Inspection/Receiving%20Inspection%20End%20Of%20Lot
I also tried...
Code:
System.Uri.EscapeDataString("Receiving Inspection/Receiving Inspection End Of Lot")
Result:
Receiving%20Inspection%2FReceiving%20Inspection%20End%20Of%20Lot
SSRS wants the following format...
Receiving+Inspection%2FReceiving+Inspection+End+Of+Lot
Or should I just replace space's with "+" sign?
Thanks

How to include the query filter in URL (cloudSearch)

I am trying to retrieve data from cloudSearch, searching for the word "Person" and adding the following filter:
(prefix field=claimedgalleryid '')
The problem is that I don't know how to create the URL using that exact filter.
Could someone give me a suggestion or some link to Amazon documentation related to this topic?
What I've tried and didn't work:
...search?q=Gallerist&size=10&start=0&fq=(prefix%20field=claimedgalleryid%20%27%27)
...search?q=Gallerist&size=10&start=0&filter=(prefix%20field=claimedgalleryid%20%27%27)
You were close with your first attempt--it looks like you forgot to URI encode the = sign as %3D. Try this instead:
&fq=(prefix+field%3Dclaimedgalleryid+'')
I highly recommend using the "test search" feature to work out the kinks in your query syntax. You can see the results right there, and then use the "View Raw: JSON" link to copy the full request URL and see how characters get escaped and such.

Generate report from URL - SQL Server Reporting Services 2008

I have SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 and when I open the following URL:
"http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?someReport"
I'm getting report screen in which I fill my parameters and generate a report,
My question is how can I do this without any GUI? by batch file or C# script..
Thanks in advance.
=========================================================================
EDIT:
Thanks to all answer above I succeed to generate a report and save it as an XML using the following link:
"http://Server/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?someReport&dFrom=01/01/2012&dTo=08/08/2012&rs%3AFormat=XML"
Thanks for you all!!!
Your problem is you are passing parameters to http://server/reports...
you need to pass parameters to http://server/reportserver...
I remember this issue I had when I first started using Reporting Services.
Here's the MSDN that may help you: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155391.aspx
For example, to specify two parameters, “ReportMonth” and “ReportYear”, defined in a
report, use the following URL for a native mode report server:
http://myrshost/ReportServer?/AdventureWorks 2008R2/Employee_Sales_Summary_2008R2&ReportMonth=3&ReportYear=2008
The result is like so:
http://myRSServer/ReportServer/Pages/Report.aspx?%2fDefaultTenant%2fDialing+Reports%2fDialing+Agent+Performance&dFrom=01/01/2012&dTo=08/08/2012
If you want to export the report to excel / pdf / etc you can append it:
For excel: &rs:Format=Excel
For PDF: &rs:Format=PDF
This should help as well: http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1336/pass-parameters-and-options-with-a-url-in-sql-reporting-services/
Your second URL option is the closest, you pass the date parameters without quotes. As JonH states you want to use ReportServer instead of Reports, and you also want to remove ItemPath=
http://Server/ReportServer/Pages/Report.aspx?%2fDefaultTenant%2fDialing+Reports%2fDialing+Agent+Performance&dFrom=01/01/2012&dTo=08/08/2012
Additionaly, if you want to export the file you can append &rs:command=render&rs:format=PDF replacing PDF with the format you desire
string URL = "YourReportUrl";
string FullURL = URL + "&JobId=" + JobId.ToString() + "&JobNumber=" + JobNo.ToString() + "&rs%3aCommand=Render";
Where JobId and JobNumber will be your Parameter names.
This will directly open in your report Viewer.
To display in XML format, add this &rs%3AFormat=XML to end of URL.
string FullURL = URL + "&JobId=" + JobId.ToString() + "&JobNumber=" + JobNo.ToString() + "&rs%3aCommand=Render&rs%3AFormat=XML";
Following is an example for using URL for a report. It passes parameters and also specify whether the parameters should be hidden or not
http://myServer/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?/InventoryTracking/Receiving/InboundContainerID
&rs:Command=Render&rc:Parameters=false&Plant="20"
If are using HTML file to display this, then use
window.location.href = url;

Validate a Single line of text column type of list in sharepoint 2010 to accept only numbers?

How to validate a Single line of text column type of list in sharepoint 2010 to enter accept only numbers?
Please don't tell me to use calculated column , I tried it and it didn't work for me as i want.
Please advice, thanks in advance.
This should work:
=ISNUMBER([MyColumn]+0)
Here is what seems to work for me (building on #Rob_Windsor; newlines added for readability):
=AND(
ISNUMBER(Number+0),
ISERR(FIND(".",Number)),
ISERR(FIND(",",Number)),
ISERR(FIND("$",Number)),
ISERR(FIND("+",Number)),
ISERR(FIND("-",Number)),
ISERR(FIND(" ",Number))
)
I went through the available functions and I don't see one that will validate whether a text value is a number.
BTW, is there a reason you are not using a Number field instead of a Single line of text?

Problem with Euro formatting (123.456,78) on Microsoft Access Report

On my report in Microsoft Access for all fields I have set-up this code in Control source:
=Replace(Replace(Replace(Format(Sum([NameOfTheField]),"#,###.00"),".",""),",","."),"",",")
and on this way I managed to replace format "123,456.78" to "123.456,78" because I need to have Euro formatting on report.
This code works ok but problem is when some column contains zero value, then I would like to replace "0" with "-" and I don't know how to achieve this?
And help is appreciated and many thanks for prompt replys!
Cheers:)
According to the docs you can specify a distinct/special format for 0 values; I would at least try if "#,###.00" => "#.###,00" does not 'work'.
