How can I escape the character " in the query designer?
This is my MDX query:
="select {[Measures].[Fakturerte timer HT],[Measures].[Fakturert beløp
HT],[Measures].[Gjsnitt fakturert timepris HT],[Measures].[Gjsnitt fakturert
timepris HT Veil pris],[Measures].[Gjsnitt fakturert timepris HT Salgspris]}
on 0,
non empty filter([Konsern].members,
len([Konsern].currentmember.Properties("Caption") > 0)) on 1
from [Prosjekt Komplett]
where ([Transaksjonstype].[Alle transaksjonstyper].[" &
Parameters!Trans.Value & "],[Dato].[" & Parameters!Periode.Value & "])"
My problem is that the work Caption needs a " on each side. My query works
in the MDX Sample Application, but it fails if I use the " in the Report
Designer - and it fails if I don't use them...
Without the "'s:
An error has occured during report processing.
Query execution failed for data set PB_AxpCmpWMB_Project1'
Formula error - syntax error - token is not valid:
"filter([Konsern].members,
len([Konsern].currentmember.Properties(Caption)^)^ > 0)"
With the "'s in Report Designer Data tab:
x:\wiersholm\Fakturarapport konsern.rdl The expression for the query
'PB_AxpCmpWMB_Project1' contains an error: [BC30004] Character constant must
contain exactly one character.
How can I use my query with "s?
All help appreciated!
Kaisa M. LindahlI found out. You escape " with an additional ".
And then I had to change my query again, as the Report Designer didn't like
me using (len).
="select {[Measures].[Fakturerte timer HT],[Measures].[Fakturert beløp
HT],[Measures].[Gjsnitt fakturert timepris HT],[Measures].[Gjsnitt fakturert
timepris HT Veil pris],[Measures].[Gjsnitt fakturert timepris HT Salgspris]}
on 0,
non empty filter([Konsern].members,
([Konsern].currentmember.Properties(""Caption"") > """")) on 1
from [Prosjekt Komplett]
where ([Transaksjonstype].[Alle transaksjonstyper].[" &
Parameters!Trans.Value & "],[Dato].[" & Parameters!Periode.Value & "])"

Errors when trying to open the report designer
I am trying to open a report solution using the report designer (Visual
Studio .NET 2003) and I am getting several errors, here is the first one:
"Package 'ReportDesignerPackage' has failed to load properly ( GUID = {11B8903-8FFD-4Dfc-87CEF6A82D77AF68} ). Please contact package vendor for
assistance. Would you like to disable loading this package in the future?
You may use 'devenv/resetskippkgs' to re-enable package loading. Application
restart is recommended, due to possible environment corruption."
This error is followed by several more "Package failed to load properly"
ones before the report designer finally opens (but it will not load my
reporting services project folders and files).
Other people can open this solution without a problem. Is there some
security setting that is causing me to get these errors' Help please.

Errors using report designer with ssas based report model
I have created a report model based on an SSAS database. It is usable without
errors with Report Builder as far as I can tell. However with Report
Designer, the layout displays the cube elements but errors on preview as
follows:
"The 'PerspectiveId' custom property for the 'query' perspective is either
not set or is not set to the string data type."
This is an error that has cropped up before but I'm not aware of a bug
report for it. The forum and blog guidance I have for fixing it is to:
- Create a report builder report and save it to file
- Copy the customproperties xml subtree and paste it into the Report
Designer report
I have done this but unfortunately this also errors on reopening the report
as follows:
"A connection cannot be made to the database. Set and test the connection
string. Additional information: TODO - change code to use RsProxy object
(Microsoft.ReportingServices.QueryDesigners)"
Notwithstanding the slightly disconcerting TODO comment lingering in the
code, can anyone advise cause and resolution/workaround?
Thanks in advance

http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=260746
Microsoft will "consider fixing it in a future release". There is no
workaround listed, and I have found nothing better than selectively removing
and adding the customproperties subtree to enable different parts of the
report designer (which of course is a big nuisance).
BTW thanks world for not replying to my posts!

you have MSDN subscription you can do a managed newsgroup where you register
an alias and they guarantee I believe an answer in two days.
The fact no one answered means that people doing this for no pay and just
because they want to help did not jump in because they did not know an
answer.
In the future if you do not get an answer here you might try the web forums.
Different people hang out there and also more MS people hang out there.

Oh, by the way. I assume at some point you might want help in the future.
Being hostile is a great way to get someone to help.

errors with Report Builder as far as I can tell. However with Report
Designer, the layout displays the cube elements but errors on preview as
follows:
"The 'PerspectiveId' custom property for the 'query' perspective is either
not set or is not set to the string data type."
This is an error that has cropped up before but I'm not aware of a bug
report for it. The forum and blog guidance I have for fixing it is to:
- Create a report builder report and save it to file
- Copy the customproperties xml subtree and paste it into the Report
Designer report
I have done this but unfortunately this also errors on reopening the report
as follows:
"A connection cannot be made to the database. Set and test the connection
string. Additional information: TODO - change code to use RsProxy object
(Microsoft.ReportingServices.QueryDesigners)"
Notwithstanding the slightly disconcerting TODO comment lingering in the
code, can anyone advise cause and resolution/workaround?
Thanks in advance

Microsoft will "consider fixing it in a future release". There is no
workaround listed, and I have found nothing better than selectively removing
and adding the customproperties subtree to enable different parts of the
report designer (which of course is a big nuisance).
BTW thanks world for not replying to my posts!

you have MSDN subscription you can do a managed newsgroup where you register
an alias and they guarantee I believe an answer in two days.
The fact no one answered means that people doing this for no pay and just
because they want to help did not jump in because they did not know an
answer.
In the future if you do not get an answer here you might try the web forums.
Different people hang out there and also more MS people hang out there.

Oh, by the way. I assume at some point you might want help in the future.
Being hostile is a great way to get someone to help.

Errors after installing Server 2000 DTS Designer Components
Hello,
After Having installed the SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components necessary
to edit legacy DTS packages on 2005 server, I keep getting the following message when trying to open SQL Server 200 Enterprise Manager:
"The procedure entry point
?ProcessExecute@.@.YAXPAUHWND_@.@.PBG1@.Z could not be located in teh dynamic link library SEMSFC.dll."
Is there a way to fix so that I can open Enterprise manager?
Thanks!
If you have both SQL 2000 and 2005 client tools installed, you do not need the "SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components" package installed.
First, uninstall them. Then figure out why 2005 is telling you to install them, when you don't need them.
Make sure you have run 2000 SP4 on your CLIENT machine to update the tools to the current version.
In my case, the error appears to be related to having SQL 7 client tools installed. When I uninstalled them the error in 2005 went away.

Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it.
|||Good info. Fixed what I thought was a very cryptic error message.
Thanks for the details!
|||Tom,
How do you install SP4 on a client machine. How do you specify the instance and user id if I don't have one installed on my machine?
Thanks,
Joseph

Error: Subreport could not be shown
I've got a report with subreport, passing an id field from the main to the
sub, working fine in report designer, but when I upload and view the report
on the reportserver, I get "Error: Subreport could not be shown" on each
line where I would expect to see subreport data.
How stoopid am I being? I can't find any mentions of this error message on
MSDN, Books Online, general google search etc.
Anyone with any ideas?

Paul Paintinhowdy - did you get this problem sorted out? I am having exactly the same problem and cannot for the life of me find any documentation on the net to fix it!!!!
Please reply if you found out what the hell to do
cheers
