Reporting question 08-23-07
I'm trying to figure out how to use the report builder to pull data from my incident base and from some of my custom fields in the incident extension base. Has anyone had any luck doing this? J.

Hi Jeremiah, any reason for not using filteredincident view which contains all base incident fields as well as all custom fields. In addition, user security is honoured, dates are converted to local, pickup lists and lookups are expanded to include verbose name. Bar the monstrosity of the view, a win-win approach. Hope this helps -- George Doubinski CRM Certified Professional - Developer "Jeremiah B." <Jeremiah B.@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:A7F481A0-98C3-4AA2-B07C-D401DA7DA412@microsoft.com... > I'm trying to figure out how to use the report builder to pull data from > my > incident base and from some of my custom fields in the incident extension > base.

George,
I don't see where to select the filter view. Again I am using the
report builder program, not creating the report in Visual Studio.

Hi Jeremiah, I understand that you're using report builder. What I'm saying is that whoever built report model needed to use filtered views and not the base tables. If that was you then modify the model to include filteredincident view otherwise contact the person who built the model in the first place. Hope this helps -- George Doubinski CRM Certified Professional - Developer "Jeremiah B." <JeremiahB@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:28F3B9C0-1837-4EE7-9FCD-F95ED26A8C07@microsoft.com... > George, > I don't see where to select the filter view.

Hi Jeremiah, it's more to do with report builder rather than CRM at this point but the procedure rougly is as following: 1. In Visual Studio you create new or open existing Report Model Project 2. Add new data source pointing to ORGANISATION_MSCRM database if it does not exist already 3. Add data source view or edit existing one 4. Add/Remove Tables->Find FilteredIncident view and add it 5. Right-mouse click incidentid attribute and set it as a logical primary field 6. If view was part of the existing report model, simply regenerate the model otherwise create a new report model based on the view and regenerate it. 7. Build and deploy 8. Your new or updated model that includes filteredincident view will become visible in Report Builder You do have an existing model and someone (you?) has built it. I suggest that the same person adds view to the existing data source view and regenerates the model. The only "non-trivial" or rather "not obvious" step is step 5 to define logical primary key for the view.

George,
Once again thanks for the help. One really basic question, how do I
add the datasource view? I'm not seeing any options for this in Visual Studio.

Question on Process.Start
I have a program that starts a second program with Process p = Process.Start(...). I expect p.Handle to hold the handle of the started process, which I then use in a series of SendMessage Calls, eg, SendMessage (p.Handle, 0x800+1, 0, 0). However, p.Handle is not the handle of the started process. I know this because, when the new process starts, it writes its own handle in the caption of the window, and it does not match p.Handle. Also, if I jigger the first program in the debugger, and use what I know to be the handle in the SendMessage calls, it works fine. What is going wron...

dialog based implementation
The member function OnExtraInit will place two dialogs (dlg1 and dlg2) side by side. dlg1 refers to the dialog pertaining to the class trs_lsr_cmd_dlg while dlg2 refers to the dialog for class trs_lsr_status_dlg. So now: trs_lsr_cmd_dlg::trs_lsr_cmd_dlg(trs_lsr_ctrl_dlg_main* pParent /*=NULL*/) : CDialog(trs_lsr_cmd_dlg::IDD, pParent) { m_hIcon = AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDI_LSR_TRS_ICON); VERIFY(ptr_trs_lsr_status_dlg = new trs_lsr_status_dlg(pParent)); VERIFY(ptr_trs_test_dlg = new trs_test_dlg(pParent)); m_pParent = pParent; } trs_lsr_cmd_dlg::~trs_lsr_cmd_dlg() { if (ptr_trs...
Exchange 5.5 to 2003 co-exist question
Hello. We've been performing testing and doing research on a migration procedure from Exchange 5.5 to 2003 and have some odd results. The current system is a straightforward single org, single site 5.5 system with about servers and 2000 users. We will be performing an intra-org migration. The NT domain will not be upgraded, instead trusts will be set between the NT and 2003 domains. It's not going to be a big bang approach but instead a rolling migration over a couple of months. Documentation and postings point out not to enable ADC created place holders, no problem with tha...
Customized Grouping in MS Access 2003 Reports
I am attempting to group records in an MS Access 2003 report by using a field in the table that is different from the one entered into each record. In other words, the groupings available to me are alphabetical or numeric only, but I want to create my own "custom" sort by using the key code for that underlying table, which is numerical, and in the sequence I want . Each record contains a "Status" field ... these are "National", "Regional", "Provisional", "or "None", but Access won't display them in that sequence...

Report writer line length question
I am modifying a report and I am adding fields and trying to create the appearance of boxes using lines and the lengths do not adjust a pixel at a time. Using the mouse they move about 8 pixels at a time. This is very frustrating trying to line everything up correctly. I would appreciate any solutions to this problem. Al, Try highlighting the line (or click on the line) then press the CTRL or SHIFT Key then use the arrow keys. Hope this helps.

Report Server Name in VBA
I'm adding a button in GP to launch an SRS report, but I don't want to hard code the report server name in the VBA. The button will no longer work if the client ever changes their report server. I'd like to pull the report server name and append the report name and parameter to create the URL I'm using to call the report. Is there any way to dynamically determine the report server in VBA - perhaps thru a dll? Thanks in advance! ba_wvu: Try this: 1.

Questions About CRM Data Copying and Synchronization between Serve
We have a 2 CRM3.0 Servers installed at disparate locations. The 2 servers contain both same and different data at the same time. For example, one server might contain the same user names and contacts as the other server, but it also contains users and contacts that do not exist on the other server and vice versa. The same also applies for other things: Leads, Opportunities, Products, .... etc My questions are as follows: Q1: If we are to keep the 2 servers as they are now, is there a way to schedule synchronizing the data between the 2 servers intelligently, so that both servers even...
question -- using a template
Hi, I downloaded the free "Our Organization's Telephone List" template for Excel from the Microsoft site. Once I get the information in, I would like to export this file to Outlook, as a group in the address book. From there, I want to export this group into my address book in Outlook Express (which I believe can easily be done). It seems like a lot of work to get this file into OE, but I don't know of any other way, or if this 'round about way will even work. The reason I want the information on this template is so I can share this list with another board member of ...
Question on Process.Start
I have a program that starts a second program with Process p = Process.Start(...). I expect p.Handle to hold the handle of the started process, which I then use in a series of SendMessage Calls, eg, SendMessage (p.Handle, 0x800+1, 0, 0). However, p.Handle is not the handle of the started process. I know this because, when the new process starts, it writes its own handle in the caption of the window, and it does not match p.Handle. Also, if I jigger the first program in the debugger, and use what I know to be the handle in the SendMessage calls, it works fine. What is going wron...
Excel 2003 - bar chart
Hi - I've got an Excel 2003 Bar Chart that's currently being "fed" with the data in a simple 2-column Table (Table 1) - column A is the last day of a given month, and column B is the total number of Events that happened in that month. The chart is simple: the X axis data points represent the months, by last day, and the Y axis data points represent the number of Events. I want to change this. I have a second, unrelated table (Table 2) from which I have been manually extracting or deriving the data that I've been inputting into Table 1. Table 2 is a multi-column list o...

Questions about Strange ReCalc Behavior
I'm currently struggling with an MOAS (that's "Mother of All Spreadsheets") that someone else at work has given to me. It's 28 MB and takes several seconds to re-calculate. I'm in the process of trying to diagnose ways in which I can make it more efficient (Ultimately I'll need to run it as part of a Monte Carlo simulation--25,000 recalcs, so every second is important). I've run into a couple of peculiar Excel behaviors. Can anyone explain these? 1) I can do an F9 recalc on any sheet. However, there are a couple of sheets (out of maybe 15) which, if I...

Double byte (Japanese) character question
Access 2003 I have a primarykey column. I am using text as primary key (ok not the best decision). The PK field contains Japanese double byte and single byte characters. For some reason, Ｃ and C are considered the same ("C") so I get a PK violation. Ｃ = double byte character C = single byte character Is there any way around this? I am listing file names in a folder, and using path + file name as PK. Basically in Explorer as file names, they are considered different. Being MS product, I don't know why it is not consistent in Access. JB ...
Unable to use Reporting

Reports problem in database???
I have a problem that just occured - suddenly I can't open my reports in my database in any fashion - except for one??? You click on them and nothing. Funny thing is one of the reports that I worked on last, works perfectly!! I checked other databases on my computer (microsoft provided samples with program) - I can't open reports in these either. Any ideas - this is really causing me a serious work problem.

Report formatting hangs
I have a report (rptHV) that uses a query (qryHV) as its record source. The user opens a form (frmHVClient), chooses a name from a combo box, and then clicks a command button (cmdClient) to run the report. The report works fine as long as certain client names are not chosen. If those certain client names are chosen, a progress bar appears in the status area with the message, "Formatting report - press ctrl + Break to stop..." and the report hangs and never formats at all. Coincidentally (or not) the clients that cause the issue are all assigned to the same staff me...
Outlook 2007
In Outlook 2003 you could view the 7-day work week calendar in a 2- column display instead of the 7 day (side-by-side calendar). Does anyone know if this is not available in Outlook 2007?

refresh excel data weekly question
I have a multi-user spreadsheet that needs to get refreshed with new and updated excel data on a regular basis. My team keep notes and updates some fields/columns. My desire is to bring in the wholly new rows and the updated existing rows and not overwrite the fields/columns that my team is writing into. There is a column of unique data elements that would be considered a key field in a dbms. I could do this in 30 seconds with a database but I'm having trouble figuring it out in Excel (which I have to use). From what I've been reading it appears I have to set up the incoming new data ...
Question about User Form Window Size on Chip Petersons Site
I have a User Form that I need to adjust to fit the users computer. So far I not found anyway to get the User Form Window to Adjust. I can adjust the User Form sixe, but the Main Window the Form located is in is still bigger than the Screen. I saw on Chip Petersons site exactly what I need.

How to make receipts with reports.
Hello. Maybe the question isnt about reports at all, but i have a problem of making a simple database of a shop for example which sells products to customers, looking through the inventory table and selecting the what the customers wants to buy with a Yes/No field. but that creates a problem of quantity..unless i create another field which in some function or condition will multiply the price.... and then keep it in the database with the current day to be like a shoppers history... but that seems too much for something that simple... can anyone give me an advice or an example of a simple shop ...
