External Image disappears with Interactive Sorting

Hi,

I have an image in the page header that is included in the project and is defined as "external". I also have interactive sorting enabled for the report. When a column is sorted, the image in the page header disappears. I deleted the image from the report and re-created it as "embedded" which does retain the image between postbacks.

Thank you,

Bob

Thank you Bob. This issue will be fixed in SP2 of RS 2005. If you have a pressing need, a hotfix has been released that product support services has.|||

Thank you Brad, I can live with this work around until SP2. In pre-SP1, I liked the "Select All" feature in multivalued parameters. In SP2, will this be available again? Will there be an option to turn this on and off, I hope?

There is a post-SP1 hotfix which will restore the "Select All" option exactly the way it was in RTM. You will need to contact Microsoft product support (http://www.microsoft.com/services/microsoftservices/srv_support.mspx) to receive the SP1-based hotfix.

Robert,

I installed the sequence of post-SP1 Hotfixes (including the one for SSRS) accessible through the link you provided, but this did not restore the 'Select All' capability. I called the support line and they could not provide any assistance without a reference # for the fix. Can you provide a bit more information on what needs to be installed/configured to restore the 'Select All' capability?

For reference: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918222 is where I found the Hot Fix package.

Thanks in advance,

Sql Hotfix #803 - but you may need to wait a few more days because a new package is currently being built.

Express and Reporting Services

Hi,

This thread http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=179557&SiteID=1 says that Express will have Reporting Services enabled such that reports can be created in Express edition. I have just downloaded Express Edition with Advanced Services but i dont appear to have any of the tools neccessary to create a report using reporting services. ( I do have VS 2005)

Also this URL http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/ promotes Express as having Reporting Services and yet this table http://www.microsoft.com/sql/prodinfo/features/compare-features.mspx says just the server is installed.

Can anyone please clarify if I just haven't installed or activated the required functionality to build reports using Express edition or whether there is no such capability with Express edition.

If the latter is the case does this mean that I can still run applications and reporting services reports with Express edition? In other words if I buy standard edition to develop reports, can my customers run my application (i.e reports) with Express edition or do they have to purchase standard edition as well?

Hi S-Bob

You can dowload the report designer and management studio express with the express edition toolkit:

You can create reports using standard edition or the toolkit and consumers using express advanced can view them. Note that express has some limitations such as supporting local data sources only.
