previewing sub report on list element? HELP PLEASE

I am not sure why i am having this problem as it has worked before. I have
placed a sub report on a list element.
When i preview the report the subreport (and table within) is pushed to the
second page while the entire list element remains on the first page.
Wat is going on here? (when viewed html it looks ok, it is only when i
'preview' or export to 'pdf' do i see the problem.
any help would be greatly appreciated.Likely due to the difference in how HTML vs. PDF renderers handle
pagination.
From designer, go to Report / Report Properties while in the Layout Tab.
Here you will be able to change the page width, page height and the margins.
The PDF export pays attention to these settings very diligently. Either
change the size of elements on your report or page size settings so report
can fit in a single page.
Alternatively, might try overriding the page size settings by passing in
parameters with the desired page height / width via URL (or via the
webservice call if you're rendering that way) when rendering to PDF.

previewing specific records in a report

Hi,

I have a form which contains records about patients. the primiary is PatientID and is based on the national ID number.

I have compiled a query to show the patient's bill (invoice). from this query I have created a report. i have placed a button on the same form mentioned above that will open the report. right now the button opens the report and all the records are showing.

i would like it that when the user goes to a particular record in the form, the user can click on the button to preview just that record's bill and no others.

i'm using access 2000.

bajanElfi should also mention i was told that i could "fix" the query in sql, but i'm not to sure how to do that.|||Originally posted by bajan_elf
i should also mention i was told that i could "fix" the query in sql, but i'm not to sure how to do that. The simplest answer is to build a criteria that restricts the query to just the data for a particular employee or bill. Without knowing a good bit more about your application, I can't really give you any specifics. The basic process isn't tough, you just add a criteria in the query form where client_number = x or where bill_id = y.

-PatP|||hmmm... no worries Pat. i got it working. it seems i needed a piece of code inthe command button the opens the report. below is what i added.

DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acPreview, "", "[PatientID]=[Forms]![frmAppointments]![PatientID]"

so in fact i didn't really need sql. thanks for taking the time to look at my post anyway tho, it was greatly appreciated.

Previewing reports - MissingMethodException

Hi, after installing RS SP1, when I want to preview a report in VS.NET 2003,
I get an error- MissingMethodException: Method not found: System.String
Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Globals.GetCurrentWindowsUserName().
I guess its because Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.dll is somehow
wrongly registered, I tried to register it with regsvr32.exe (both copies,
one in Documents and Setting and one under RS home directory) but I didnt
succeed.
The report renders allright in Report Manager, but I really miss the
Preview, because it slows down the developing so much.
Any help would be appreciated.I even tried to unisnstall Reporting Services and did a clean install again,
but it didnt help. I really dont feel like reinstalling Windows now...

Previewing RDL without Designer

Folks,
Is there a way to preview the "RDL" Reports programatically without
deploying to the report Server.
We needs this ability for the creation of ad-hoc reports where user designs
the contents of the report...
Any idea...? Appreciated...!
RakeshWith the new controls in local mode you can do this. The next beta for
Widbey (Visual Studio) will have both a web and winform control. They will
work both with and without Server. In local mode you can give it the rdl and
the dataset. The next beta should be available before too long. There is no
other way available until then.

I am working on something similar at the moment, and have had reasonable
results using the following.
Use the webservice interface to temporarily create a hidden folder, Create a
report from the RDL, render the report, then delete the report and folder.
All these actions are available through the SOAP interface. Its long winded
but does seem to work fine.
Regards
Quagmire|||Take a look at the RDL Project: http://www.fyireporting.com/
It has a control for viewing locally.

Previewing a URL image in Reporting Services

Hi all
I need to place an image from a web site onto a RS report. Is it possible to
do this in SRS 2000?
IE. http://<servername>/<directory>/<image.jpg> and render the image on the
report?
Thanks in advance
GeorgeRephrasing the question:
I've assigned the image control value to be a database field containing a
valid URL however I'm getting a red cross when trying to display the report.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
George

Or if you drag the image control from toolbox, you will see 4 options for
image source, you need to choose Image Source = "Web" which the 4th option.
Then click next and leave the URL empty...totally tempty... then click
finish. Then you can edit the value of the image to the database field...
which is full valid url.

Previewing a report does not display the text fields at the correct position

Hi NG,
I've got a report in my report project in that the fields' position is
changed when previewing.
Have anybody recognized similar problems?On Apr 30, 6:16 am, "Martin Trabold" <m_trab...@.yahoo.de> wrote:

Could you explain further. Do you mean fields changed order (i.e.,
Col1, Col2, Col4, Col3)? Or do you mean changed do to report borders
or page settings?
