Chart related query: adding new category field manually - reporting-services

I am trying to create a chart using SSRS 2008. I've got 4 category fields:
field 1
field 2
field 3
field 4
I want to add another category field in the chart which will be a total, e.g.:
field 1 + field 2 + field 3 + field 4
Now I don't know how to do it. Field 1 through field 4 come from a table directly, but because field 5 is the total I dont know how to add it manually?
In the Category field of the chart, I have used group on(column name) and want to add another field in the chart which will be the total.
I have even tried this :-
=Fields!ColumnName.Value.Equals("ABC")+Fields!ColumnName.Value.Equals("DEF")+Fields!ColumnName.Value.Equals("GHI")+Fields!ColumnName.Value.Equals("JKL")
Please help!!!!

I would select the chart object, then click it again so the Chart Data pane appears.
Then I would click the + button next to Values, then choose Expression.
In the Expression I would enter something like:
= Fields!Field1.Value + Fields!Field2.Value + Fields!Field3.Value + Fields!Field4.Value

I would go back to the Dataset and add a UNION with a GROUP BY to generate a total row. I would overwrite the Field1-4 values with 'Total'.

how to calculate sum of row in crystal report using sql query, and do not display if the sum equals to 0.00

I have the following crystal report, I want to calculate the sum of each row of specific columns:
Opening Quantity
Purchase Quantity
Issue Quantity
if sum of the above 3 columns is equal to 0.00, then do not print that record.
Please look out at the screenshot of generated report:
I am to guess here that the fields are placed in the DETAIL section , if then you can use the suppress formula(Section Expert-->Detail Section-->Suppress formula)
and try something like this
{Opening Quantity field} + {Purchase Quantity field} + {Issue Quantity field} = 0
I think this can give some idea to you
1) you have to create a formula to sum up the opening quantity, purchase quantity and Issue quantity by using Running Total Field.
Let say your field name for opening quantity inside the TableA is 'opening quantity'.
Thus, choose Table A, inside the Running Total Field and find the 'opening quantity'.
Then, choose 'SUM' as Type of Summary.
Do the same for another two fields.
At last, you will have 3 different running total field formula.
2) combine together these 3 formula inside one new formula.
Your final formula should look like this.
Let say you name it as Formula 4
if {#Formula1}+{#Formula2}+{#Formula3}<>0 then {#formula1}+{#formula2}+{#formula3}
then you drag this formula to any space in the report that you want the total to appear.
3) After drag it, right click on the formula and press 'Format Object'
Check the suppress box and write this inside the blue cross tab beside the suppress checkbox
{#Formula4}=0

SSRS report pdf export show column value 0

I have a cell in a table that value comes form one method which is written in code section of report property as a string type.
In report viewer it's showing the proper value but when I try to export it in PDF that column shows zero in place of the value but in excel and other exports that value export successfully
Public total as Decimal=0
Public function CalculateTotalForMaxMarks(m as Decimal)
total =total +m
end function
Public function CalculateTotal() as String
return total
end function
I would like my output to look like this
Value1 Value2 Value3 Total
100 200 200 500
If you want to sum across columns is there a reason why you are not simply creating an expression to Sum the values? Based on the values
Value1 Value2 Value3 Total
100 200 200 500
123 456 789 1368
You can perform the Expression under total to be
=Fields!Value1.Value+Fields!Value2.Value+Fields!Value3.Value
To give
Edit
To show a total Max value column you can add a new Row at the bottom of the table, and under Total insert the expression
=MAX(Fields!Value1.Value+Fields!Value2.Value+Fields!Value3.Value)
You can rename this textbox to be a specific name, in this instance txtTotalSum. You can then add a new Column to your table called Max Total and set the expression of this to be referring to your txtMaxSum value
=ReportItems!txtMaxSum.Value
Finally to not show the bottom row where the maximum sum is calculated you can hide this row (in the example below coloured blue)
The design would then look like this
And the output like this

SQL Report Builder for Survey Data

I have a large dataset with People's names and their Rating from 1 to 5.
Then I made a query that summarizes this data for PersonA:
Rating Count
------- ------
1 4
2 6
3 1
4 0
5 2
I just need to know how to show this on my report.
I have made a cell for each rating and need to put in an expression that says "If Rating=1, show count for rating 1".
I tried using =IIf(Fields!Rating.Value = 1, Fields!Count.Value, 0) but this didn't work.
I'm not sure why you would need an expression like that, based on your description of the dataset it sounds like you already have two columns of data for rating and count, so you could use a tablix (table), with columns:
Rating Count
which would list all the rating values and associated count values, similar to the example result in your question.

Adding Value Fields in a different data set in SSRS

In this question it answered how to add two different datasets,
SSRS - Expression using different dataset fields
I tried that kind of approach and here is my expression
=First(Fields!count.Value, "remclass1")+First(Fields!count.Value, "db_IACS")
the problem is that only the first value is being Calculated like this
I added the Pulled out COUNT to the Expired Count, i want it to be added per Row
only the first part
For instance:
Column 7 (Count) = Column1(Count) + Column 4 (count) //**per Row**
The value of row 1 column 7 would be column 1 + column 4 row 1
the value of row 2 column 7 would be column 1 + column 4 row 2
The Pulled out table
(Consists of Count, Grams, Principal) are on the data set db_IACS
and the Expired table(Consists of Count,Grams,Prinicipal) are in the dataset remclass1
So any help how to do it? how to add the two columns (in a different dataset)
Thanks :)
You could do this in SQL, as follows:
SELECT db_IACS.count as PulledOut_Count, db_IACS.Grams AS PulledOut_Grams, db_IACS.Principle AS PulledOut_Principle,
remclass1.count as remclass1_Count, remclass1.Grams AS remclass1_Grams, remclass1.Principle AS remclass1_Principle
FROM db_AICS
LEFT OUTER JOIN remclass1 ON db_IACS.Id = remclass1.Id
Then just deal with everything in the one dataset.

Microsoft Access selecting records from another table matching current record

It seems I've hit a brick wall in MS Access 2010.
It's kind of hard to explain what I'm trying to achieve, so I'll start with a basic example. Let's say we have two tables: A and B.
A:
ID Price Item
1 5 ABB
2 4 ATV
3 2 CCC
B:
ID Price limit Chosen item
1 3
2 4
3 5
4 6
What I'm trying to achieve is create a Relation from table A to B. Each record in table B has to have associated table A record. It should be based on table A field 'Price' and table B field 'Price limit' in a way that the price of selected record from Table A is lower than the price limit imposed in table B record.
That is, the possible table A records for the first table B record is only CCC, for second - ATV and CCC, while for third and fourth all records are valid.
As far as my limited access knowledge goes, I've figured that I should write a query in "Chosen item" field row source property. I've tried writing it myself, however, without success. Here's what I've come up with:
SELECT [Table A].[ID], [Table A].[Item]
FROM [Table A]
WHERE [Table A].[Val] > [Val];
But it does not work. Could somebody please point me to the right direction?
I think that you want something like this where the dropdown box only contains relevant items:
You can set this up by setting the row source of the combo to say,
select item from ta where price<=forms!tb!pricelimit
And adding a little code
Private Sub Form_Current()
Me.Chosenitem.Requery
End Sub
Note that this method comes with a warning. Usong dropdowns like this on a continuous form can seriously mess up the display of your data on any rows other than the current row. In this case, the display is fine, because the bound column and the data to be displayed are the same, however, if the selection was:
Row Source: select id,item from ta where price<=forms!tb!pricelimit
Bound Column: 1
Column Widths : 0cm;2cm
Data would appear to disappear from records when the selection for the current record produced a list that did not contain IDs for other rows. That is to say, if the selection for the current rows returned IDs 1 and 2 and the next row already had ID 3 chosen, the combo for the next row would appear to empty, and so on down the page.
