could you use
=SUM(IIF(fields!GENDER.value = "MALE", 1, 0))
=SUM(IIF(fields!GENDER.value = "FEMALE", 1, 0))

hello guys ! i need a report where i need data from two tables.here is the scenario.i have a table Ip-to-country which contains most ipnumbers ranges and th country which i appended a new field for iddcode.the second table is text_status tables which contains field like mobilenumber and other stuffs not needed for now.I want to do a report where it would be easier to have iddcode field in the text_status table which would be the iddcode of the mobilenumber.
what is chalenging to me is how to insert the corrresponding iddcode for the mobilenumber.
knowing that iddcode are from 1 digits to 4. ex 1 for us, 44 for uk, 359 for bulgaria and 1441 for bermuda.
as you can see bermuda and us start by one.so i'm confused about the way to go to know for which country a mobilenumber is for.thanks for reading this.
Ps: i even tried to substring the mobilenumber but at the end the problem is still the same.
Need some help please.thanks
eager to learn

Probably more than one way to go about something like this, and none of which are really very clean.
Basis of anything is, that if 1441 matches the start of the mobile number then it can't be 1 for U.S.
You could match these back in 4 iterations, starting with the 4 digit codes first, then exluding what you had matched when you do your 3 digit matches and so on.
You could code this on the fly, but would overcomplicate it really, could you add another field onto your text_status table, and update it with the iddcode where you get a match on all 4 digit iddcodes.
Then update the field with all matching 3 digit iddcodes where the field is still null, then 2 digit, then 1 digit.

To add to the answer from RGTuffin, you most propably also need to know the minimum lengths for a phone number. Consider following number:
1441232
If searching for bermuda (1441) this matches, so the result could be that you interpret this as a phone number from bermuda. This would result that the phone number is 232, but it's most certainly not true. Then again if you take out the prefix for U.S. (1) the phone number would be 441232.

Hi All,,,
I want To Get the max value of a string from a database,,, such as
I store a value A1-50,A2-50,B1-50,B2-50,,,
I want To Get the max value from these string, but i cann't do that.
Please Help Me.
Thanks All,,,,

i think this is what you meant.
select top 1 len{your string column} from <your table=""> order by len{your string column} desc
Or
select max{len{your string column}} from <your table=""></your></your>
hope it helps.

Hi,,
I don't want the Len Of string,,
but i want the max value , like A9-50,A10-50, when get max, will return
A10-50
thanks all.

Actually the max value of A10-50 and A9-50 is A9-50 as you are doing string comparisons and A9 is larger than A1.
What you are trying to do is rather complex unless you can guarantee the format of the data as you need to reformat it for comparison. What you are trying to get is A10-50 and A09-50, then the comparison will work, so you have to split out the alpha at the start, reformat the first number and then reformat the last number (again, A1-9 is greater than A1-10).
It is possible, but not easy - then who said coding should be easy, thats what we get paid for

If you need to get the maximum length string, you could simply use a Select Max(Len(StringColumn)) expression.
If you have any custom criteria for getting the maximum sub-string from that comma separated list, I suggest you create a scalar valued function, e.g. GetMax(varchar (nn)). Inside that function you could parse that comma separated list into table rows (you can easily find such functions on the internet) and then apply your maximum criteria.
Hope that helps.

There was a very similar question a couple of days ago, with a good suggestion to include another field in your table that just holds the 'numeric' part of your field, to be used in comparisons such as this.
|
|
|
|
|
If you stored your values in the same format
eg. A01-50, A02-50, A09-10, A10-50
Then a max on the column would bring back the A10-50 you wanted.

The answer Ashfield gave you is correct.
To give you some starting points for reformatting the values (Note, this is not the solution, just ideas you could use):
CREATE TABLE Test12 (
Column1 varchar(50)
)
--
insert into Test12 (Column1) values ('A1-50')
insert into Test12 (Column1) values ('A2-50')
insert into Test12 (Column1) values ('A10-50')
insert into Test12 (Column1) values ('A9-50')
--
SELECT Column1,
CHARINDEX('-', Column1),
SUBSTRING(Column1, 0, CHARINDEX('-', Column1)),
SUBSTRING(SUBSTRING(Column1, 0, CHARINDEX('-', Column1)), 2, 999),
REPLICATE('0', 2 - LEN(SUBSTRING(SUBSTRING(Column1, 0, CHARINDEX('-', Column1)), 2, 999)))
+ SUBSTRING(SUBSTRING(Column1, 0, CHARINDEX('-', Column1)), 2, 999)
FROM Test12

Hi guys,
Back with another question 
Create Table TestTable (
TestTableId Int Not Null,
TestTableName Varchar(100),
Primary Key (TestTableId)
);
Now i want to alter the TestTableId column and change it to an Identity Key.
I heard that theres no direct syntax for this as such. But is this possible through SQL Server 2008?

As far as I know it's not possible in SQL Server 2008 either.
Why not use temp table in the process, like:
- create temp table as you want the table to be
- set IDENTITY_INSERT ON
- copy the data to temp table using INSERT INTO ... SELECT ...
- set IDENTITY_INSERT OFF
- drop the original table
- rename the temp table to orginal table using sp_rename

The question is so large that it's impossible to answer it in whole. The .Net framework classes for accessing a database provide very much functionality and are quite flexible, so I take it you have good reasons to implement your own mechanism for some of these purposes.
What I would do in your case, I would write down to myself the (current and future) requirements for my custom classes. After that I would create (for example using Class Diagram in Visual Studio) a class model and test my concept against the requirements with different approaches. This would prove the concept to be correct (or you may discover weaknesses and want to change the concept).
Based on your description, few issues I would consider:
- why do I need to open the connections at start-up. If it's for speed, why don't I use connection pooling
- do I need to keep the connection open all the time
- do I need asynchronous database operations
- do different database operations require a common transaction
- what if I need to save several records using one call
- do I need set based operations (deleting multiple records at the same time etc)
Hope this helps you,
Mika

Hi all,
Am i on the right forum for my questions? If not please lead me to the right one. Thanks a lot.
If Yes,
We are having trouble in creating right format for our Reports/Report Templates using Reporting Services. We used table element in rendering reports data. At first it satisfied our needs but apparently as data gets longer, the whole table we’re being pushed to the next page, leaving the first page blank.
I just want to ask if there’s other work around for this problem.
In our experience using List element is not applicable,because its keep together property is worst than the Table element. We already checked the page size and i think it's not the problem because the problem occurs when there are too many data on the table.
As in design, the whole page is composed of Header which is a sub report, then the whole table itself with groupings and all that stuff.
Can any one have some work around in mind? thanks for the help.
Can any one knows an email address of a particular person where i can ask these questions?
Thanks a lot! I'm not desperate for this one, but i do need an answer.

With Crystal a similar problem occurs because of the report header and report footer. The solution I usually use is to repeat headers on each page and allow grids to be broken apart. This should work with SSRS but I haven't worked with it in a long time.

Thanks for the reply. But there's no 'Allow Grid or Allow Table to be broken apart' property in SSRS.

It works fine for me even if I have lot of data rows that can not be accommodated in one page. Are you sure that you have unchecked options like "Insert a page break before/after this table" and "fit table on one page if possible" on the properties window (the one that pops up when you right click a table and select properties)?

Yep, I've unchecked those properties.
Maybe it's because of the structure of my page? I used a subreport as its header and the table which is in the body, is composed of header part and ONE Group Row where the data is listed. This group row is composed of another table with a group row also. To make it short, i used nested groupings. And now i think those things are the cause why the whole table is printed on the next page. :c
Still don't know what to do.

The groups have also a "Page break at Start/End" property. May be you missed unchecking any of such properties from any of the groups/tables.
