Dynamic Parameter Date Ranges
1.)Daterange
2.)EndDate
3.)Start Date
Selecting an option from the DateRange Parameter (eg. option = today)
automatically populates the EndDate and StartDate Fields. I also want to give
the user the option to extend the date range to one which is not defined as a
daterange option of desired by editing the EndDate and StartDate Fields.
Any help is appreciated.Hi,
I have exactly the same problem, did you found a solution?
Thanks,

parameters and the second and third parameters have an expression as the
default with the expression referencing the first parameter. I can't try
this right now but it should work.

I have tried this before but it doesnt perform as expected...
When you run your report the first time and select the first parameter the
other two dates are populated correctly, but when you change your first
parameter (date range) the other dates are not automatically changed.

say. However, when I deploy it and try it from the server then it works as
you would expect. Can you try it after deploying it?

dynamic images in sql reporting services 2005
Hi all,
I am currently working on some reports where I need to display images dynamically.
there is one total field whose value ranges between 0 and 100 %. amd I need to display different images depending on the range of the value.
for example,
if the range is between
80% - 100% smily face.
60% - 80% normal face
40% - 60% sad face.
Can any one help in approaching this.
Initially I worked with only static embeded images.
It also helps me in solving another problem.
I need to change the company logo (header image) as per the company in the common report template provided by the provider dynamically.
Thanks in advance.
waiting for an early help as it is very urgent for me.
Regards,
Ramesh P
One way to do this is to include a hyperlink to the image. The URL of the hyperlink can be an expression controlled by the data in your report.|||
can we pass the URL using a parameter.
or can we do it like this.
i have a image file name in db(FirstName is the image name)
i have image path thru parameter
and in expression can i give like this
=Parameters!IPath.Value+Fields!FirstName.Value+".png"
it is working in the preview but not after deployment and in the runtime in IE
