每个部分之后的Reporting Services 2005带有免责声明的报告页面

Question

Details:

I am using Reporting Services 2005 in a C# Application with Visual Studio 2008 to generate reports based on a SQL Server 2005 database. The application views the report locally using the .net report viewer and no report server is used. There is a page break in the report after each person. I am currently using just one report table for the .rdlc file to generate the report.

Question:

My client wants to put a disclaimers page after the grouping has ended for each person listed on the report. The client wants to be able to adjust the disclaimer page on the fly through the user interface, before running the report. Please offer suggestions on how I can accomplish this.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Jeremy

Answer 1

Do you mean they want to adjust it on the fly PRIOR to executing the report or after? If before, could you not use a parameter, with the disclaimer template as the default value and submit it to the report when they are done? You could then put the parameter in the group footer. If after then...good luck :) The report is rendered into whatever format chosen. If you are retrieving the report in html and have the rendered file perhaps custom parsing could be done but seems a bit naff. Been a while with SRS, hopefully the param could work for you.

Answer 2

An alternative solution would be to create another report for the sole purpose of rendering the Disclaimer content. The Disclaimer report can then be embedded (via a subreport: see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms160348.aspx ) into your existing reports thereby allowing you to dynamically modify the content of the Disclaimer separately.

You could store the actual Disclaimer content within a SQL Server Database table and update it via any number of the typical simple standard .NET controls that are at your disposal.

This has the advantage of no character restrictions as per the prior recommendation.
