I have a problem of hiding a few of my parameters. People are talking
about the SP1 and the "Prompt User" check box. I have SP1 installed.
But I cannot see "Prompt User" checkbox anywhere either in the
ReportManager or the VS.NET Report Designer.
I've been pulling my hair all day. Please let me know how can I get to
that "Prompt User" checkbox. Where is it ?
thanks
Anand SagarThere is not a check box. Make sure your report is highlighted. Click on
the Report option in the menu. Select properties. To set a parameter as
hidden, you have to delete all the text in the "Prompt:" textbox. Once you
do that, you will not see a prompt for the user to enter data for that
parameter. This is all that is needed to "hide" parameters from the end user.

Check the "Prompt User" check box, then empty out the Prompt String text
box. This allows the parameter to be hidden from the user, but still
updateable by the report.

Hide Parameter with SP1
Installed SP1, still finding not possible to hide a parameter. Can someone provide the process please. The parameter is an ID that is send via URL to the report server. I created a Report Parameter for it, then created a queary parameter setting that to the incoming value of the Report Parameter. Help pleaseYou can hide a paremeter after you have deployed your report.
But hiding a parameter disallow you to pass any value to this parameter
through the URL!!!
The parameter is not simply hide to the user, is also completly inaccessible
to the user through any URL, but just available to the administrator to
change the default value of the parameter.

4.3.1 Hiding Parameters in a Published Report
In Report Manager, you can now set parameter properties in a way that allows you to achieve two objectives simultaneously:
Hide the parameter fields in a published report.
Specify a parameter value at run time (for example, through a subscription that is used to trigger report execution and delivery).
Previously, the only way to hide a parameter value was to clear the Prompt User check box in the Parameters properties page. However, a side effect of clearing the check box was that you could no longer specify a parameter value for the report at run time. This limitation has been removed. In SP1, you can clear the Prompt User check box to hide the parameter fields and values in the report. Doing so does not introduce restrictions on how you subsequently set the parameter value externally at run time.

Hidden parameters error (SP1)
I'm having problems with executing a report with a hidden parameter. For the
record, I've got SP1 installed.
I have a report with a date range that a user can modify:
From - defaults to previous business day
To - also defaults to previous business day
I also have a parameter called CurrentUserID (an integer) which is a user ID
that exists in a table called tblUser. I want this parameter to be hidden
from the user.
In Report Manager, I've gone into Properties, then Parameters, and set the
following for the CurrentUserID parameter:
Has Default - not ticked
Default Value - blank
Prompt User - ticked
Prompt String - blank
In the URL for the report, I add the following at the end:
&CurrentUserID=1083
where 1083 is a UserID I know should return some records in my test report.
However, I'm getting the following error:
This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report
parameter 'CurrentUserID'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must
provide a parameter value. (rsReportParameterValueNotSet)
I have tried the report again, this time with the CurrentUserID parameter
displayed, and entering the user ID 1083, and this time the report works
fine, so I know the stored procedure is not the problem.
Any suggestions to get this hidden parameter functionality to work would be
greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.

launch reports. I need a way to be able to set a parameter from within the
application AND allow the developer to configure this setting so the report
can be deployed with no Report Manager configuration necessary. If I clear
the prompt from the report designer and deploy, the parameter then becomes
'read-only' and I cannot set it from code.
The only work around that I can find is to go in to Report Manager and turn
ON the Prompt User, then clear the Prompt text and then adapt for that in
code. This works fine except that it means I have to go to each of the 100
client's ReportManagers and configure this report this way. With 50 reports
with hidden parameters at 100 clients, that is just not possible.
Any suggestions?

reports (xml) when you change the settings in de report manager, and then
write a small program to make that change for your reports.
I hope they are going to fix this in RS2005

I've tried the suggestion to set a non-used default value. The report now
loads error-free, however, it comes back with no data even though I've added
&CurrentUserID=1083 to the end of the URL (1083 is a user ID that should
return 3 records).
I've added a text box onto the report to show what's in the CurrentUserID
parameter when I run the report with &CurrentUserID=1083 in the URL. However,
it keeps showing the -1 I've set as the default. It doesn't appear to notice
the fact that I want to override the -1 default with my own user ID.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

left the prompt value blank?
If this is the case it should work.

If I put my ID of 1083 in the default just to see if it works, my 3 records
come back fine. But when I put -1 as the default, and add the parameter to
the end of my URL (&CurrentUserID=1083), it doesn't.

http://sqldev/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fRAMSReports%2frptFilesSentForSettlementRM_UserTest&CurrentUserID=1083
'&CurrentUserID=1083' is the user ID that, when used with the below
defaults, I know should return 3 records.
I have a number of parameters for this report (along with the troublesome
CurrentUserID) - all are displayed to the user and are changeable by them
except CurrentUserID:
Parameter Name Data Type Has Default Default Value
From DateTime Yes 1/03/2005 12:00:00 AM
To DateTime Yes 31/03/2005 12:00:00 AM
Channel Integer Yes 0
OrigState String Yes (ALL)
OriginatorID Integer Yes 0
SAM_FBM String Yes (ALL)
ReportAs String Yes Real-time
CurrentUserID Integer Yes -1
For CurrentUserID, Prompt User is ticked and Prompt String is blank.
Thanks.

I tried your suggested URL, but that always defaulted back to the Report
Manager Home page (http://sqldev/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx).
However, I then tried going through Report Server
(http://sqldev/Reportserver?%2fRAMSReports%2frptFilesSentForSettlementRM_UserTest&CurrentUserID=1083),
and hey presto - IT WORKED! - I get the 3 records I am expecting. The
CurrentUserID parameter is hidden, and my test text box I placed on the
report to check what was in CurrentUserID is now correctly showing my user ID
of 1083. I think that now I can work with this.
Many thanks for your assistance Antoon. I (and I'm sure the client of this
project) really appreciate you taking the time to help out.
Thank you again.

record, I've got SP1 installed.
I have a report with a date range that a user can modify:
From - defaults to previous business day
To - also defaults to previous business day
I also have a parameter called CurrentUserID (an integer) which is a user ID
that exists in a table called tblUser. I want this parameter to be hidden
from the user.
In Report Manager, I've gone into Properties, then Parameters, and set the
following for the CurrentUserID parameter:
Has Default - not ticked
Default Value - blank
Prompt User - ticked
Prompt String - blank
In the URL for the report, I add the following at the end:
&CurrentUserID=1083
where 1083 is a UserID I know should return some records in my test report.
However, I'm getting the following error:
This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report
parameter 'CurrentUserID'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must
provide a parameter value. (rsReportParameterValueNotSet)
I have tried the report again, this time with the CurrentUserID parameter
displayed, and entering the user ID 1083, and this time the report works
fine, so I know the stored procedure is not the problem.
Any suggestions to get this hidden parameter functionality to work would be
greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.

launch reports. I need a way to be able to set a parameter from within the
application AND allow the developer to configure this setting so the report
can be deployed with no Report Manager configuration necessary. If I clear
the prompt from the report designer and deploy, the parameter then becomes
'read-only' and I cannot set it from code.
The only work around that I can find is to go in to Report Manager and turn
ON the Prompt User, then clear the Prompt text and then adapt for that in
code. This works fine except that it means I have to go to each of the 100
client's ReportManagers and configure this report this way. With 50 reports
with hidden parameters at 100 clients, that is just not possible.
Any suggestions?

reports (xml) when you change the settings in de report manager, and then
write a small program to make that change for your reports.
I hope they are going to fix this in RS2005

I've tried the suggestion to set a non-used default value. The report now
loads error-free, however, it comes back with no data even though I've added
&CurrentUserID=1083 to the end of the URL (1083 is a user ID that should
return 3 records).
I've added a text box onto the report to show what's in the CurrentUserID
parameter when I run the report with &CurrentUserID=1083 in the URL. However,
it keeps showing the -1 I've set as the default. It doesn't appear to notice
the fact that I want to override the -1 default with my own user ID.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

left the prompt value blank?
If this is the case it should work.

If I put my ID of 1083 in the default just to see if it works, my 3 records
come back fine. But when I put -1 as the default, and add the parameter to
the end of my URL (&CurrentUserID=1083), it doesn't.

http://sqldev/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fRAMSReports%2frptFilesSentForSettlementRM_UserTest&CurrentUserID=1083
'&CurrentUserID=1083' is the user ID that, when used with the below
defaults, I know should return 3 records.
I have a number of parameters for this report (along with the troublesome
CurrentUserID) - all are displayed to the user and are changeable by them
except CurrentUserID:
Parameter Name Data Type Has Default Default Value
From DateTime Yes 1/03/2005 12:00:00 AM
To DateTime Yes 31/03/2005 12:00:00 AM
Channel Integer Yes 0
OrigState String Yes (ALL)
OriginatorID Integer Yes 0
SAM_FBM String Yes (ALL)
ReportAs String Yes Real-time
CurrentUserID Integer Yes -1
For CurrentUserID, Prompt User is ticked and Prompt String is blank.
Thanks.

I tried your suggested URL, but that always defaulted back to the Report
Manager Home page (http://sqldev/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx).
However, I then tried going through Report Server
(http://sqldev/Reportserver?%2fRAMSReports%2frptFilesSentForSettlementRM_UserTest&CurrentUserID=1083),
and hey presto - IT WORKED! - I get the 3 records I am expecting. The
CurrentUserID parameter is hidden, and my test text box I placed on the
report to check what was in CurrentUserID is now correctly showing my user ID
of 1083. I think that now I can work with this.
Many thanks for your assistance Antoon. I (and I'm sure the client of this
project) really appreciate you taking the time to help out.
Thank you again.

Help-Can I use 4 GB memory by SQL Server2000?
There is a Server with 4G Memory. I installed a SQL Server 2000 standard
version on it.
I heard that SQLServer2000 could use only up to 2GB memory. Is it true?
How can I use those 4GB memory? I can not upgrade to SQL Server 2005 or
other version because i don't want to take this risk.
Thank you very much.
True. Standard edition is limited to 2GB

Upgrade to Enterprise Edition of SQL 2000.
Which is quite more expensive than moving to SQL 2005 Standard, I believe.

Would a "Named Instance" on SQL 2000 Standard be able to use most of the
remaining half of the 4GB? When I expirimented with named instances back in
2001 - and decided not to use them in a production environment - I only had
2GB in the server.
Even if possible I'm not sure this would be a good solution, just wondering
what the behavior is.

|||The OS will require some memory I leave 512 MB as a minimum. The remaining
memory could be divided between the various instances of SQL Server,
equally, or one instance getting 2GB and the other only 1.5GB, etc.
You would need to use the Server setting for MAX Server Memory on each
instance.

Note for say a website, as I recall, you need a CPU license for each
physical CPU in the machine for each instance (in Standard).
However, this probably won't necessarily help. It depends on the OS.
If you're running Windows 2000 Standard, you're limited to 4 GB of physical
RAM anyway.
Now, 2 gig of physical RAM can be given to a process (3 gig if compiled with
the right options, but that raises other issues here.)
So, if you have 5 gig of physical RAM and an OS that can address all of
that, in theory this could support 2 processes each using 2 gig of physical
RAM with 1 gig reserved for the OS.
If you have less memory, obviously this won't work as well.
Quite honestly, I think your best bet if you really need the memory (and
while I'm always a fan of more memory, sometimes it's just not worth it) is
to move to SQL 2005.

Upgrade to Enterprise Edition of SQL 2000.
Which is quite more expensive than moving to SQL 2005 Standard, I believe.

Would a "Named Instance" on SQL 2000 Standard be able to use most of the
remaining half of the 4GB? When I expirimented with named instances back in
2001 - and decided not to use them in a production environment - I only had
2GB in the server.
Even if possible I'm not sure this would be a good solution, just wondering
what the behavior is.

Note for say a website, as I recall, you need a CPU license for each
physical CPU in the machine for each instance (in Standard).
However, this probably won't necessarily help. It depends on the OS.
If you're running Windows 2000 Standard, you're limited to 4 GB of physical
RAM anyway.
Now, 2 gig of physical RAM can be given to a process (3 gig if compiled with
the right options, but that raises other issues here.)
So, if you have 5 gig of physical RAM and an OS that can address all of
that, in theory this could support 2 processes each using 2 gig of physical
RAM with 1 gig reserved for the OS.
If you have less memory, obviously this won't work as well.
Quite honestly, I think your best bet if you really need the memory (and
while I'm always a fan of more memory, sometimes it's just not worth it) is
to move to SQL 2005.

I heard that SQLServer2000 could use only up to 2GB memory. Is it true?
How can I use those 4GB memory? I can not upgrade to SQL Server 2005 or
other version because i don't want to take this risk.
Thank you very much.True. Standard edition is limited to 2GB

Would a "Named Instance" on SQL 2000 Standard be able to use most of the
remaining half of the 4GB? When I expirimented with named instances back
in 2001 - and decided not to use them in a production environment - I only
had 2GB in the server.
Note for say a website, as I recall, you need a CPU license for each
physical CPU in the machine for each instance (in Standard).
However, this probably won't necessarily help. It depends on the OS.
If you're running Windows 2000 Standard, you're limited to 4 GB of physical
RAM anyway.
Now, 2 gig of physical RAM can be given to a process (3 gig if compiled with
the right options, but that raises other issues here.)
So, if you have 5 gig of physical RAM and an OS that can address all of
that, in theory this could support 2 processes each using 2 gig of physical
RAM with 1 gig reserved for the OS.
If you have less memory, obviously this won't work as well.
Quite honestly, I think your best bet if you really need the memory (and
while I'm always a fan of more memory, sometimes it's just not worth it) is
to move to SQL 2005.
