SSRS adding a footer row to a table - CSV output - reporting-services

I have a simple table in SSRS which I am using to create a CSV report.
The output looks like:
a,b,c
1,2,3
4,5,6
where a,b,c are the column headers.
Now my client requires a footer row saying how many records are in the file.
However if I add a row to my table with the required fields in, the output becomes:
a,b,c,records
1,2,3,2
4,5,6,2
instead of:
a,b,c
1,2,3
4,5,6
records,2
Does anyone know how I can achieve the desired effect?

In SSRS 2005, the table control has, by default, three rows. The top one is for a header, the bottom one is for footer, and the middle one is for data. Looking at your example, it appears you dragged the records value into a new column in the middle row, and it automatically added a header for you.
Instead, drag it into the bottom row. You can type "records" into the leftmost column of the footer, and whatever data set field you have for the records count into the 2nd column.
In SSRS 2008, you have the Tablix control. It defaults to a Header row and a Data row. Right-click on the data row, and select Insert Row -> Outside Group - Below. Then you have a footer row that you can add to the same way was in SSRS 2005.

The effect you're trying to achieve is not possible but you can get rid of that column.
Select the row you use as Footer, actually the textbox associated and set the DataElementOutput for that textbox to NoOutput. That row will not be exported in CSV.
This applies to any textboxes in a report.

In SSRS 2008 , Click on the Report Tab on the top menu . Then select "Add Page Footer"

ssrs - how to use a group by in the header

My aim is to have that
I want to add a colum name, on my header that will be in a group. That column name will be linked to an existing group within the body of my report
This is what I've done
I tried to put a column name inside of a textbox , within the header
=(Fields!EVENEMENTS_TYPE_LIBEL.Value, "DataSetEvtsLibel")
It did not work. The only thing possible is to have an agreggate (see below)
=First(Fields!EVENEMENTS_TYPE_LIBEL.Value, "DataSetEvtsLibel")
I then created a parameter Libel, I've used a query to provide available values inside of the parameter.
It gives me the relevant field but alas it does not do the grouping.
I looked at the internet but I did not find anything relevant.
If you have any tips, they are more than welcomed.
Thanks
Update: Should I mention I'm talking about Page header
You can create a Group Header in order to show the current value in the header between each instance of your group.
In the Row Groups pane, right click Details group, and add a parent group.
Select EVENEMENTS_TYPE_LIBEL in the group by drop down list, and mark the Add group header check box.
Now in the tablix delete the first row and the first column. You should get a tablix like this:
Merge the first row in one cell and use EVENEMENTS_TYPE_LIBEL field.
Add the columns in the next row, you will have to insert an additional row for column headers, so use insert inside the group:
It should produce the following tablix:
UPDATE: Adding textbox with the current group present in the page.
See the header textbox properties in the tablix and look for the textbox name:
Now in the Page Header textbox use:
=ReportItems!Textbox176.Value
It will show something like this:
Hope this be what you are looking for.
Looks like you would like to dynamic change the report header value based on tablix row group value change.
If the answer is YES, you may refer to SSRS dynamic change the report header textbox value based on tablix row group value change
Actually, I have a SSRS report needed to do that. And the answer provided by #Hannover Fist solved my issue.
Hope this help.

ROW Headers not appearing SSRS

I have a report which is a tablix without any details group or any group for that matter. I have a row headers which are based on an expression that I would like to repeat on each of the page. But within the report, I do not see these headers being repeated. Is it because I have no grouping?
What am i doing wrong? How can I get these to appear?
Right Click on Tablix>Tablix Properties
You will see the different options for Row Headers and Column header.
You will not be able to create a static header without a row group within a tablix. However, this is possible within a matrix. I had to re-create the table as a matrix. Then I was able to add the static row header to each page.

RDLC report, How to combine the bottom of tablix with page footer

Help me please.
A Tablix has 7 rows but I need to increase height of tablix until it matches the footer.
What should I do?
[Edited.]
According to below figure, I tried to insert a lot of blank rows to a Tablix.
And I used an Expression for setting visibility each row.
Example :
-If Dataset has one record. One Blank row will hide.
-If Dataset has two records. Two Blank rows will hide.
But It is inflexible because some rows aren't a single Line.
Using RDLC 2005 you can simulate this behaviour with:
a Body section with Body.Height = Page.Height - Footer.Height - TopMargin - BottomMargin
a Tablix without border
a Rectangle for every column to simulate with Rectangle.Height = Body.Height; set its RepeatWith property to Tablix
In order to simplify some operations you could put your Total textbox in the Footer or consider it when you build your Body section as explained before.
There is an example of what I mean (Tablix with red border and Rectangle with black border):
Another, though more complicated way, of forcing the height would be to use Subreports for each of the columns.
Each Subreport would list the table contents for that column as a single list.
You could then force height of a single table row to reach the footer... If the Subreport does not require the entire space it will return whitespace
Parent Report
Report 5
Report 4

How to align different Tablix in SSRS

I have a SSRS report in which i need to align multiple tablix in same Order as i need to export to EXCEL
The other tablix's is just a copy of the first tablix with only change of data set.But all the tablix will have same Columns.I need to align each column to the respective column in the other tablix. Can anyone help me in this?
After exporting in to excel,column1 of Tablix1 is not in Sync with Column1 of Tablix2,they are created in different Columns in Excel.
I don't think you can do what you are proposing with two separate tablixes. I may be wrong, but I think you would need to change the underlying dataset or query being used to return the data (probably need to do a UNION or something) and display all of the data in the SAME tablix, which shouldn't be a huge problem since you are using the same columns. If you do it this way, you would use your row groupings to effectively section of the tablix so that the data has some separation.
Following steps will work.
Select 1st Tablix and open the property window. Set property Location->Left=0
Do the same for 2nd tablix.
Now select cell one by one of the 1st tablix and open the property window. Set property
size->Width="required width of the cell and keep the maximum decimal places upto 2 decimal places"
Do the same for 2nd Tablix
I have just had to sort this issue. I had multiple tablix's underneath each other with various text boxes for labelling and had them inside rectangles. I did as suggested above lining everything to 0.0 on the location Left and checking that every single cell in every single column was the same width as the cell in the tablix directly above and below it. However when exported to excel I still had 2 or 3 blank columns hidden between each data column. In the end I removed all of the rectangles and just used the tablix's and text boxes. Everything was aligned to 0.0 location left, and all text boxes were the same width as the tablix's. This time when I exported to excel there were no extra blank columns.

SSRS report page break issue

I have a problem with page breaks in an SSRS report, and I'm by no means an expert. This is in the XML mark up to provide a page break:
<TableGroups>
<TableGroup>
<Grouping Name="AdjustmentPageBreakGroup">
<PageBreakAtEnd>true</PageBreakAtEnd>
<GroupExpressions>
<GroupExpression>=CInt(Ceiling(RowNumber(Nothing)/28))</GroupExpression>
</GroupExpressions>
</Grouping>
</TableGroup>
</TableGroups>
The page break appears on different lines on the print and screen version of the report:
Print:
Screen:
As you can see, the print version has a break in the middle of the "Transfer IN" cell, with "Value" on the next page after the break. From what I can tell from the XML, it's got a hardcoded page break at row 28, and if I change this number it fixes the print version and breaks the screen version. Is there any way to specify this line break differently for print and screen?
The solution to this issue is the rectangle component. Based on your image, I am assuming that your report has a table that is grouped on location. For each location you are reporting on Number and Value. Column 1 has the location name, Column 2 is the label and Column 3 is the field values.
Create a new table (TABLE A). Set the table to group on Location. In the group footer, add a rectangle (RECTANGLE). Set the Keep Contents Together property of the rectangle to TRUE.
Add a table to the area of the rectangle (TABLE B). Do not add a grouping to TABLE B. Add to the details row of this table Column 1, Column 2, and Column 3 formatted as it is in the existing report.
When the report renders, each group will be kept together and the rectangle will force page breaks between the groupings.
The solution above works for SSRS 2008. The solution below is similar and works for SSRS 2005.
Create a new table (TABLE A). Set the table to group on Location. In the group header or footer add a table (TABLE B). Do not add a grouping to TABLE B. Add to the details row of this table Column 1, Column 2, and Column 3 formatted as it is in the existing report. On the TABLE B use the Fir table on one page if possible option.
You can solve this problem by using few small steps:
1-Go to report properties and set paper size to custom. The width and length is to be as such, that it will show all column :
2- Then set the Body Property like same :
Now View the report and download in any PDF/Any format it will not break:
Make sure the interactive size and the page size are the same. You also have to set the margins so that the print version prints properly.
