ssrs 2008 page breaks between tablixes - reporting-services

I have a new ssrs 2008 report and I am going to have tweleve (12) tablixes for twelve (12) different reports that a user can select on by using a parameter called 'optRPT '.
The main tablix will be setup by student number. The embedded tablixes are for 12 different reports. I am planning to have 1 main tablix and embed the 12 tablixes within the main tablix .
The same parameters and dataset will be used for all the reports.
I want the12 tablixes to to be exported to separate pages and display as separate pages when the ssrs 2008 report is executing. Page breaks will occur between when the student numbers change and when the reports change for each student.
Should I use conditional page breaks on a single rectangle, a rectangle embedded within a second rectangle, and/or in a table?
Thus can you tell me what you suggest I try to do to allow the page breaks to occur between when the student number changes and when the reports change for each student?
Would you show me how to accomplish this goal using pictures, examples, and/or the code that is rquired?

SSRS report built in VS need to export to 3 separate Excel tabs

I have 3 datasets and 3 tablix's or tables in an SSRS report and each has a different page name and the first two have a page break set to End. However, I only get two worksheets generated and the second two are combined into one worksheet.
I have another report that works perfectly and it seems to be set up exactly the same.

SSRS - Two different reports in one Excel?

I am pretty new to SSRS, so forgive me if I am asking something that is either obviously not possible (or easy) - I haven't found what I am looking for so far!!
I have a Detailed report, which splits by group onto multiple Excel tabs (pages). I also have a separate Summary report which outputs onto one page.
I want to merge these two into one report, so the users receive just one email, with tab 1 showing the Summary report and tab 2 on wards showing all the Detail.
The datasets come from two stored procedures and whilst related, they are different so I can't use the same dataset.
Is this possible in SSRS?
Thanks
Mark
Take your Detailed report and insert a subreport at the start of it. Set the subreport properties to point your Summary report.
If you have any manually set parameters in the Summary report, you'll need to set them up in the Detailed report (if they don't already exist) so you can pass the parameters to the subreport.
Now you have a single report with everything in.

use expression to dynamically decide which subreport to open

I have a report that contains several pages with graphs, tables and so on.
This report is used by different customers who always want small modifications to the report. At the moment if a customer wants a change on page 5 the whole report is recreated with the modifications, even though the only change is in the graph on page 5.
More so, some customers don't want to see page 3, others want a custom table at page 6.
My boss would like the report to be modular so he can simply switch parts on/off depending on what the customer wants. At the moment a change in a report means development followed by deployment.
My idea is to create a report with a number of subreports. Each graph/table would be a subreport so that if a change is needed we only need to change thàt specific subreport.
Ideally a dataset would be attached to the mainreport detailing which subreport to show: for customer X we would show SubreportX, Customer Y would see subreportY.
I know this can be done by adding all possible subreports to the mainreport and switching visibility per subreport but more elegant would be to dynamically decide which subreport to show. On drillthrough reports this is possible by using an expression to determine which report to open;
eg IIF(customer = X, "subreportX", "SubreportY")
but is this possible with subreports?
To be clear: I am looking for a way to decide dynamically at the moment of opening the report which subreports to show. Something like using an expression to get the name of the wanted subreport.
I have been searching for this (in VS2012 and through Google) but I cannot seem to find a definitive answer whether it is possible to decide at opening the report which subreports to show....
I found the following but again that seems merely to be using toggling visibility:
Dynamic subreport in SSRS 2008
I am very much hoping for suggestions, answers or even general directions. Thanks for thinking with me!
I would create a Dataset that returns the list of valid subreports for the selected Customer. I would add all the possible subreports to the master report. I would set the Visibility property of each sub-report using a Lookup expression, targeting that dataset.

SSRS 2005 page break per report

I have a specific type report that I need to generate multiple copies of. What I want to do is pass a string of report IDs to SSRS and generate all of the individual reports (let call them subreports) with those IDs in one master report with each subreport on a new page. I've already tried making a subreport and placing it in a table with grouping. This worked the closest so far. It gave me all the pages I needed, but it generated the report for the first ID number over and over. Is there anyway to do this or am I gonna have to jump through a lot of hoops?
If you are passing the string of report IDs to a parameter on the master report, I think using a table and subreport should work. You'll need a way to split out the report IDs using a dataset on the master report and return them one per row (so you can pass each report ID individually to the subreport via the details row of the table).
I was going to recommend a table-valued parameter for this, but since they don't exist in SQL Server 2005 check out Arrays and Lists in SQL Server 2005 by Erland Sommarskog for a few other options.

Is it possible to combine reports in MS access?

I have different reports in Access for different cities. Every city has 8 pages (means 8 different reports).
Is it possible in Access to combine reports (8 pages of a city) together to see all the pages together and not as separate reports?
The easiest way is to put each report as a full page subreport of a new master report.
If you put a hidden control on the master report you can link child and master fields so each subreport shows the same city.
you can even bind the master report to the list of cities so each one shows in sequence.
