I am getting improper affect of my SSRS expression for line break. I've done quite alot of research about the syntax, I have tried using Fields!......+ VbCrLf + Fields!..., or
Fields!...+System.Environment.NewLine+Fields!..." OR tried with double Carriage return ( ...+VbCrLf +VbCrLf +...)
In my case, either one of these works in first two lines only. And I can't get the effect in my 3rd and 4th lines. I also make the textbox can-grow properties to True. But still not okay. Someone please kindly help me resolve this issue. Thank you...
You can include multiple fields in a single textbox by simply adding more placeholders to a single text box.
Fore example you can add you original expression for Fields!P_remark_Cname.Value. Then enter as many carriage returns as required, then right click the text box and select "Create Placeholder". Set the value of the window that pops up to =Fields!P_remark_CPost.Value and then OK out of the windows.
You can repeat this process for as many variables as you like, resulting in a design that looks like this
Note you can also format each of these expressions individually, hence some appearing bold, or underlined as required.
Hopefully this will be helpful. Please let me know if you require further assistance with this.

Sorry if this is a duplicate, I can't find a similar question for the life of me.
I'm trying to use a <datalist> input on a form and it works but I need to have it 'autocomplete' the top search result right into the input box as the user types... Let me be clearer:
I already have the functionality working that filters out results based on what's typed into the <input> text box, as you would expect a <datalist> to behave. What I'd really like is for the user to not have to actually 'choose' a value and put it straight in.
This page (and the codepen therein) pretty much demonstrates what I'm looking to do (albeit without <datalist>) - note that as you type, the field is filled out for you with every keystroke - then you can just tab out of the field and keep your value
I have tried the above solution but for some reason in my project it does not work, even if I copy the code out verbatim.
Anyone know how I can acheive this with a <datalist>?
Edit: an image for further explanation - if I start typing 'all', I'd like 'AllStar Sports' to fill out the rest of the feild, as it was the top result:
I'm a competent C# developer, but new to SSRS, so my inability to figure out this stupid little issue is kinda killing me here.
I've got a report that's basically a printed quote. There's a terms and conditions section at the bottom that looks like
some static text
some static text
some static text
With certain quote types, we want to add one more line to the bottom of that. I've tried a bunch of ways to get this to work, but can't seem to get it to work within the bulleted list. If I add a new line with the bullet, I've got a blank bullet when the quote type doesn't call for that item. If I clear the bullet and try to manually add it with chr(9) for tabs, it doesn't work. The closest I could get to it was this:
=iif(Trim(First(Fields!QuoteTypeCode.Value, "QuoteDetailsDataSet")) = "N", " • Prices Subject to Change", "")
Problem is, that still leaves an unwanted blank line. Ideally, I'd think my solution would be to put my «expr» at the end of the last static text line and trigger a line break that would add another bullet and my text, or, after that line, with html, add a <li>my text</li>, but none of that works.
Is there something silly that I'm missing here?
I could easily just create two versions of this box, one with that line, one without, and conditionally display the appropriate one, depending on what type of quote it is, but that feels "dirty". At this point though, as simple as this task is, I'm ready to go dirty rather than spin my wheels for too much longer over something so trivial. :(
I would Create a separate dataset, ex. Italicsdataset
select "bullet text formatted in html" as Option1, "bullet option 2" as Option 2...
then in your text box select create an expression such as
IIF(fields!Field.value = 1, fields!option1.value, 0)
I'm new to SSRS reports, and I didn't write this report, I'm just trying to fix it; and I've had no luck searching for anyone else suffering from this (too many false-positive matches).
Part of the data for a field is being rendered in a way that leaves half of the first character invisible. Perhaps the best thing to do is to show a screenshot of the problem (see the data in the final column):
StackOverflow says I don't have enough reputation to embed the image; but it's here:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/1YtcB.png
The "8" character is being chopped in half. I don't understand why the data isn't forced inside the 2pt padding, or why it doesn't split the date value between the date and time.
By the way, I suspect there is little value asking why the penultimate column looks OK: the columns are different widths, and the penultimate column is an expression returning a DateTime whereas the final column has to handle the possibility of the DateTime being null.
The RDLC file is here (requires you to download the file; suggestions of a better alternative are welcome): http://www.filedropper.com/markerprogresssummarybycomponent
It looks like it's attempting to fit as much of the date/time on the same line without wrapping as possible, which doesn't necessarily fit in that cell.
2 Suggestions:
Increase the width/padding of the cells that are cutting off text so the
entire date/time fits
If it's not a problem to have the time shown on the next line, you could force it to wrap at the time part, thus eliminating the issue:
=Replace("8/6/2015 12:35:02 PM", " ", chr(10), 1, 1)
I have searched for a solution but I can't find one suitable on this problem.
I have a chart in access where the Y-axis is text but starts with a number, so up along the y-axis i get this:
I know why, but I don't know how to fix it.
They all have an ID which is fine. I can chose to put the ID on the Y-axis, but then the kW range can't be visualized.
How is this changed?
Changing the text to number is not possible as it needs to be like "a-b kW".
Thanks in advance.
For those who might get this problem, I found out why.
When selecting the data, it chose to use the "Total" function, and "Avg" because that is what the values are. (The picture below says "Group By" but it was automaticly set to "Avg". I just forgot to change it when i snipped for stack.
That results in:
But if i remove the "Total" function i get this:
So, removing the "Total" function works here...
In your query, can you sort by ID, but not display it (e.g., in the query designer, sort 'descending/ascending' on the ID field, but clear the 'display' check box)?
As an aside, I've always had a tough time with Access charts... on my last project, the customer wanted a rather complex bar chart, and I ended-up drawing and resizing rectangle objects to get the look that the customer wanted.
i have an ssrs 2008 R2 matrix with Accounts on Rows, Months on Columns and Sales in the data section. I need to “double underline” the sales numbers but I can’t figure out how to do this.
i tried using “double border” but that would create one giant line across instead of just underlining the sales numbers - in other words, the display would be a single long line across.
any idea how to achieve this? i am willing to use custom code in the report code. Thanks in advance for your help.
Edit: Adding a screen shot to show the desired output:
For some reason the Double text box BorderStyle property seems to be rather temperamental.
This MSDN thread suggests a few requirements to get this running:
Double Line border turn to be single in Reporting Service
The border width must be 3pt at least.
There must be at least one row beneath the Double border text box.
Let's test this out. A simple tablix:
And let's set the bottom text box to be Double at the bottom:
In Preview this is unsuccessful:
Let's test out the suggestions. First, set the width to 3pt:
Same result:
Let's add an extra row below:
It works:
What's going on here? It seems like if the width is too low, the two lines will squash together. Also, it seems like the border actually spills to an adjacent text box, so if this doesn't exist the bottom line is not displayed.
Put them together and it works.
One more note - this is not required for Excel - just add a 1pt Double border and it will be fine. The above series of steps are only required for Web, PDF, etc.
