Hope someone can help as I am quite new to SSRS, I am trying to hide a text box that has an expression in it. When multiple values from a drop down parameter are selected I want to hide the box but when only one option is selected I want to show just the one option.
I currently have a text box with the following expression in it
=First(Fields!Name.Value, "ABC")
The above currently shows the first Value from a field which is correct, but when as I said there are more values selected, I want to hide this, I am not sure if I need to wrap the above expression in something or change this in the Text Box properties under visibility
I have been trying to add the following expression under the Text Box Properties/Visibility option, but not having much luck
=Iif(Parameters!Supplier.IsMultiValue > 1, True, False)
I am using SSRS 2012 though I am sure what I am trying to do is quite easily done in every other version.
Hope someone can help, P
As a multi value parameter is an array, you need to use a formula like this:
=Iif(Parameters!Supplier.Value.Length > 1, True, False)
or as suggested by the OP
=Iif(Parameters!Supplier.Count > 1, True, False)

I have zero knowledge of coding. Can someone please help me with code.
My situation is as follows:
Dashboard has a Multi select List Box (Document Property). I am using that to restrict the data and calculations.
User does not want to select values each time. He wants a button where in (s)he click it once and all the values present in the list box gets selected.
Can someone please help me.
Regards,
Subro
This is fairly easy to do. Let us say that the Document Property that the list box is used for is named "Test" and it is of type "String List". Then you can use an IronPython script like so:
Document.Properties["Test"] = ["First Choice","Second Choice","Third Choice"]
Where the string list you see above, are all the values in your list box. Make sure that the strings you assign to the document property are the ones you want to populate your list with, since sometimes the displayed values can be different than the ones assigned to the document property(The case of using the "Fixed Values" option when setting up the control).
Hope that this helps.

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.
My query returns location_cd(string) and item_count(int). I only need certain rows from the result however and I need them to display in specific places in my layout so I don't think the table solution is going to work. Can I determine where I place the value for a particular row of the result set?
I am using a grid to display values for a number of fields. I cannot seem to be able to get the values from the results to show. The grid is bound to the result set. I even tried binding the cells to the result set but that didn't work either.
I checked in the query editor and there is a result set shown in the Preview so I know the query works. The complete and correct result set shows if I put a table on the page.
I tried inserting a Dynamic Text or Data object in a cell and used the expression:
dataSetRow["location_cd"]=="3SD"?dataSetRow["item_count"]:""
This returns a blank and does not seem to evaluate. I tested it with :
dataSetRow["location_cd"]=="3SD"?dataSetRow["item_count"]:"BLANK"
and got 'BLANK' to appear in that cell.
dataSetRow["location_cd"] and dataSetRow["item_count"] will display the location_cd and item_count from the first row of the result set. row.outer[] did the same thing. Obviously I am just hacking at this report at this point.
A co-worker suggested that she uses a JAVA if-statement in places like this but I could not get that to work either.
Any ideas or suggestions that will get me on the right road??
Thanks
An elegant option would be to use a HashMap storing the result of the dataset.
Declare a report variable named "values", with a new hashmap as default value (see image below)
Fill values in the onFetch script of the dataset: vars["values"].put(row["location_cd"],row["item_count"]);
Insert new data elements at any place of the report with expressions such: vars["values"].get("myFavoriteLocationCD");
Though it is important to note the dataset should be triggered by the report before these data elements.
The particular row you want to display you specify in a "Text" field inside your grid. Just drag and drop a "Text" field inside your grid. If you bound the fields you want to display to your grid, the "Text" field inside the grid inherits the bindings of its parent (the grid), so you can access the bindings automatically in the "Text" field.
You could try following steps, maybe that works.
Don't use "Dynamic Text" field, instead use a regular "Text" field
Ensure the fields of your query which you use, are bound to the grid (you sayed you already did)
Open the "Text" field
Change preselected pull-down entry "Auto" into "HTML"
Change preselected pull-down entry "Formatting" into "Dynamic Text"
Wrap your code in <value-of format="HTML"> your code goes here... </value-of>
Note: You should check in the "Expression Builder" of your "Text" field if you are able to access the fields you bound to the grid. If they are not available sth. went wrong with your binding. Avoid binding query records to cells this will drive you crazy.
If you want to display a list, ensure you didn't set a constant height in the row of your grid. Set the height to 100% than the row takes its height dynamically.
What about the idea to optimize your query, that only get the results you want are displayed, than you don’t need to filter them with java script? If you don’t need the filtered results in another place this would be the cleaner solution in my opinion.
I am building a query in Access. One of the fields [V2] needs to be filtered if an option button on the [Main] form is selected. Right now, I have the following criteria entered for the field.
Field: Expr3: [V2]>0
On Criteria: IIf([FORMS]![Main]![optV2]<0,True)
In the event that the option button is selected, the data is sorted properly. However, in the event that [FORMS]![Main]![optV2] is not <0 (meaning the option button is not selected), I would like all data regardless of [V2] value to be displayed. Currently, no data is displayed if the button is not selected.
Any suggestions on how to do this?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Lucas
You need to get rid of the iif function surrounding your criterion. It needs to look like this:
Criteria: [Forms]![Main]![optV2] < 0
or like this:
Criteria: [Forms]![Main]![optV2] = true
The reason your way is not working is you don't specify, in your iif function, what value to return if the condition evaluates to false. Strictly speaking, the correct form of your function call would have been:
iif([Forms]![Main]![optV2] < 0, true, false)
But since the query designer criteria entry field already evaluates the condition, you don't need the iif function there at all.
I want to programmatically set the focus to the last row (bottommost, its only one column wide) in the DataGridView control for Visual Basic. How can I do so?
So far, I have tried
DGV.Rows.GetLastRow(DataGridViewElementStates.Selected)
without success, though I did not expect that to work.
It absolutely must select that last cell. Otherwise, the application is nearly impossible to use!
Here is a screenshot of what I am making with this: http://www.mediafire.com/?mmyogzytgzt
The "Paste Clipboard Contents" button only pastes into the selected cell, though I guess I could find a workaround.
I solved it. I used a workaround to add the text in directly. I don't need this anymore!
To select the last column, last row in c# (sorry I don't have a vb project I'm working right now:
this._dg.ClearSelection(); // eliminates what they already have selected if you need
this._dg[this._dg.ColumnCount-1, this._dg.RowCount-1].Selected = true;
In VB.net replace 'this' with 'me', and [] with ().
This is also useful:
this._dg.Focus();
this._dg.CurrentCell = this._dg[this._dg.ColumnCount - 1, this._dg.RowCount - 1];
this._dg.BeginEdit(false); // true if you want all text highlighted
// for deletion or replacement
