Automatically Regenerate on Depending on parameter input

Hello,
Is there a way to get the reports to automatically regenerate when a user
changes a drop down or selects a radio button?
Thanks

As far as I know, there is not a way to do that; unless, you are
embedding the report in an application, whereas, you can call a
refresh of the report on a given event.

run, infact it substitutes the values) Otherwise you have to click on view
report to see the report. other option is to write custom code..

automaticall render as pdf after parameter selection

I am using reporting services and have a report that requires three
parameters. After the parameters are selected and the report is generated by
clicking the View Report button, I want the report to default to pdf view
instead of having to select that format and export after running it. Is this
possible? This way users can print or save from the pdf view without having
to take the extra step of exporting.
Thank you for your help!
SharlynI'm also interested in it.
tnx.

automate report export

I have a report that has a parameter for each agency that I deal with (500
total agencies). I was just told that I have to run this report for each of
the 500 agencies and export the results to a PDF file or files. After getting
back up on my chair, I started to research how I may automate this and have
come up empty handed.
Does anyone know of a script that I may use to pass in a parameter from an
array or sql cursor to my report and export the results?
Thank you in advance!!!Open the report in the Report manager.
Go To the "Subscriptions" Option
Select "New Data_Driven Subscription"
This is a good place to start with.

locally. I am looking into passing in parameters via URL. That looks
promissing, if I can just figure out the whole Rendering thing.
thanks!

We have created a process to automatically render reports to PDF on a
monthly basis as well. Our issue is timing. Have you had any issues
concerning the amount of time it takes to render a large number of reports?
We took one report with an average of 10 pages and ran it for 600 clients.
The process took 1 hour. We have a total of 30 reports and 1600 clients.
This will take weeks to create all of them.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Autocomplete combobox

Dear all,

I have a parametrized report which displays the available values for the parameter in a combobox (dropdownlist). I need to make that combobox autocomplete what the user types.

Is there any way for that?!

Thank you.Here is some code in c#. You will need to use a custom application to display the report & parameters.

|||There is no way out of the box to do this. You would have to write your own code to accomplish this. You could use the .Net 2.0 ReportViewer control to display the report and then handle the parameters yourself.

Hope that helps.

Auto Reload of report on parameter selection?

this might be a stupid question.

I have a parameter which has a default value set to it. when a second value is selexcted is it necessary to click the view report button.

Could it be set to auto reload on dropdown selection.

I am using reporting Services 2000

Thanks.

Hey guys,

Would there be a runtime load function available for the above problem.

thanks

Auto generate report without clicking on the "View Report"

Is there a way to automatically generate the report when the users
changes the parameter selection - without clicking on the "View
Report" button?
ThxFor what it's worth, you can just press the enter key - and if all required
parameters are filled, the report will refresh.
Not quite the same thing - but you need to do something to indicate that you
have finished in a cell.

Auto generate multiple pdfs

Hi,

I have a sales report that includes sales information for different vendors. I have vendor as a dropdown parameter, which includes the option "All vendors".

What I want to do now, is to generate one pdf for each vendor, keeping the date parameters for each. It's of course too time consuming to produce one pdf at a time by going through all the vendors (there are ~150 vendors), and splitting the pdf generated by choosing "All vendors" is difficult because the length of the report for each vendor differ.

Can I use SSIS to solve this? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Btw, I'm using SQL Server 2005

Regards,

Kremfjes

As the adage goes "when life gets tough, the programmer writes a program". I'd write a small app to call down to the Report Server Render API to meet this requirement. Alternatively, you can set up a data-driven subscription to generate the reports and send them to a file share or e-mail.
