Hide Duplicates Attribute Not working

We are creating a matrix report with multiple row headers. There are
duplicate values in the first column. The duplicate values are hidden but we
would like them to be displayed. The â'HideDuplicatesâ' attribute is
unchecked. Ultimately, this report will be exported to Excel and we will be
using these column values to filter the data so I need values in every column
for every row. Is there another attribute that we are missing?
Thanks,
TylerHi Tyler
Did you find a solution to this problem? We have the exact same requirement
- need to output a matrix report to Excel with all cells showing.
Thanks

Hide an entire row if data in one firld is 0 or null

I want to be able to remove rows from the report if certain data in the row is 0. If a sales division has no sales for a district. there is no reason to show the district name or even to show an empty space for the row. I want to suppress the entire row without the user being able to see it or unhide it.

Is this possible?

You can accomplish this using filters. You can filter at the dataset, data region and grouping levels. You could also modify the SQL query to filter the data using the WHERE clause.

Here is more information on filter data in a Report.

Ian|||This will not work in the current context. There are multiple fields that get grouped at a division/region level

Hide a Static Row/Column in a Matrix

How can I hide a static row/column in a matrix? The static row/column should
only display depending on a parameter.
thanks,The column should have a visibility property, you can put an expression in
there I think.

Here is an example. Select a cell in the matrix in Layout view, open
the 'Properties' window and in Appearance -> Visibility -> Hidden,
select '<Expression...>' from the drop down menu and enter something
like:
=iif(Parameters!SomeParameterName.Value = "TargetValue", true, false)
Hope this helps.

Hide a Row or Column in Detail but show in Subtotal

It there a way I can hide a ROW in detail but show subtotal.
Example
c1 c2 c3 c4 Total
Project Task1 Actual 8 7 6 4 25
Schedule 8 8 8 8 32
Task2 Actual 2 2 2 2 8
Schedule 3 3 3 3 12
Total Project Actual 10 9 8 6 33
Schedule 11 11 11 11 44
Difference -1 -2 -3 -5 -11
Difference is the Row not in Task Group but I want difference to show in
subtotal. Is there a way to hide whole row on detial but show in Subtotal. I
tried Inscope. I can get blank row in detail and difference in subtotal. But
it does takes whole row space for each task. I am trying to hide the ROW
somehow to minimize the space.
c1 c2 c3 c4 Total
Project Task1 Actual 8 7 6 4 25
Schedule 8 8 8 8 32

Total Project Actual 10 9 8 6 33

As far as I know there is not a way around this: particularly, if you
are doing the Difference as part of the table. You might, however, try
doing the difference either in the stored procedure or query that is
sourcing the report and include it in a separate textbox below the
table -or- use a separate text box below the table and include an
expression there that includes an aggregate with a reference to the
dataset (or reference to a separate dataset that determines the
difference). Hope this helps.

Hidden table details row and whitespace issue.

I have a table in a list box with more than one detail row..conditionally hidden based on some criteria..Is there any way to get rid of all the white space generated in the report viewer

There are not very many options available in this scenario. If you
haven't already selected decrease to accommodate contents in the
properties of the table control, I would suggest doing that first. The
most effective way to handle this is to manage it in the stored
procedure/query that sources the report. That way you can pass the
criteria back to the stored procedure and it can decide rather to
return a particular row in the returned dataset. Hope this helps.

hidden rows

Hi
Hope someone can help.
I'm trying to hide a row based on 2 criteria.
If i use one this =iif(Fields!RespTimeEq.Value > Fields!RespTime.Value,
True, False) it works but as soon as i add another criteria e.g.
=iif(Fields!RespTimeEq.Value > Fields!RespTime.Value and
Fields!VisitType.Value="GSC", True, False) it doesn't work.
Is this possible hide a row based on two criteria and if so what is the
correct syntax for it.
Thanks PaulI would thing that there is something wrong with
Fields!VisitType.Value="GSC", either this is never "GSC" (uppercase,
lowercase) or VisitType is not a string
So perhaps Fields!VisitType.Value.ToUpper()="GSC", would work (?)

Hidden Property - "Deserialization failed: is not a Valid Value" E

If I add an expression to the visibility property on a text box, table row,
etc.. and then remove that same expression, I get the following error message
in preview:
"deserialization failed: is not a valid value..."
I get an option to edit the XML code. When I look at the code, I find the
<Hidden /> tag. But get this, there is no </Hidden> tag. Apparently, VS is
removing only one side of the Hidden tag when I delete the expression.
I used to be able to edit the code, but now I can't even edit the code to
take the remaining tag out. With this error my rdl file became, for all
intents and purposes, corrupt. Luckily I had posted it to a dev Report
Manager site earlier and was able to recover it.
Has anyone seen this?
Also, not being able to close VS2005 because of the the "Modal Dialog
Open..." box is killing me. Anyone have a solution to that yet besides
killing the devenv process?
Thanks in Advance,
bsod55I just had a similar error - I had to open the file and remove the Hidden
tags. In the IDE I right clicked on the file and selected Open from the menu
- this gave me the XML version and allowed me to remove the tags.

Hidden Expression for Group Header

I am trying to hide a group header (table row) based on the value of that group, but have not been able to get it working.

Let's say I have 2 groups in my table:

Group 1: State

Group 2: City

I want to hide the group header (tablerow2) where State = "Unknown" but I want the Group 2 cities to still display - just w/o a header.

I tried putting the following expressions on the hidden property of tablerow2 with no luck:

First I tried referencing the field that it's grouped on:

=Iif((Fields!state.Value = "Unknown", true, false)

I also tried refereing the name of the group:

=Iif(("State_GRP" = "Unknown"), true, false)

In both cases, nothing gets hidden - all rows, including the group header that says "Unknown", are visible.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Kathleen

You are doing this correctly, and I was not able to reporduce the behavior--it works as you are thinking. I would make sure that the case of "Unknown" is consistent with the field value. I would do this in the expression (or change the query to do the trimming), so that case and extranious white space is not a factor.

=IIF(Fields!state.Value.Trim().ToLower()="unknown", true, false)

Help: Odd Error Mess :The table terms has been created but its max rowsize(8850)

Hi, I've come across a error message and I'm not sure what to do.

Warning: The table 'terms' has been created but its maximum row size (8850) exceeds the maximum number of bytes per row (8060). INSERT or UPDATE of a row in this table will fail if the resulting row length exceeds 8060 bytes.

I've tried playing with odd and ends, but I'm still getting the message does anyone know hwo you expand the maxium number of bytes per row.

Thanks For any help.You obviously have too much information to fit in one row.

This error message is caused by either a table with too many columns or a few very wide columns.

The best solution is to break up your table in to 2, 3 smaller tables and have a one-to-one relationship. The combination of the matching rows will meet your larger rowsize requirement.|||SQL Server has a 8K block size, which means that a single row cannot exceed this size (8060 bytes). When all column sizes are added up, SQL is telling you that that number potentially exceeds that size (this is because of varchars). You only have 2 options, 1 - reduce the size of your columns until the total is below 8060, or 2 - split the table up - as the previous post suggests.|||You cannot "force" sql to overcome the limit of 8060 bytes per row.

Anyway you'll get an error ONLY IF your actual data is larger that 8060 bytes.
For example if your table is made of two columns of VARCHAR(5000) you'll get the warning you already know.
Than you can insert values in your table with no problem, expect for that rows that are bigger that the near 8Kb limit.

If you really need to have not virtual limits you can use the TEXT or IMAGE data types.
