Please Help me

Dear All

Please help me to give drill down feature in report builder -> Report properties. How can I give bound to an entity in the data source

What is DrillthroughSourceQuery , DrillthroughContext in parameter

I have 2 report

1. report 1

2. Report 2

I want to drill through report2 from report1 Hw can I give DrillthroughSourceQuery and

DrillthroughContext in parameter

Please help me....

Let's see if I understand what you are asking. If you want to drill through to report 2 from report 1 then you need to right-click on the object that you will use for drilling purposes. Click on the Navigation tab. Choose Jump to Report and select Report 2. Click the Parameters button and set your parameters. If you have a dynamic query for Report 2, you will need to pass the necessary information through a parameter.

Hope this helps.

Please help -- So stuck now -- Cant connect to sql from external source

Hi all,

I am having real problems allowing a client to connect to sql 2000
through enterprise manager.. I have tried all sorts but to no avail:

From our local network all works fine.. Using the adsl line.. Even if
i try and connect to the external IP and use login details..(As
opposed to connecting local and using windows accounts) I can ping and
telnet the server and port.

The server is behind a firewall so i opened up port 1433 and port
1434(? is it needed).. To replicate the client i took the same laptop
home that i use to connect in the office.. However using the exact
same config on my dial up at home i can ping the server but cannot
telnet onto port 1433.. I think that this is the vital missing step
but do not know hpw to resolve it..

Any ideas anyone

Cheers

Pivot Tables in Excel

I Created pivot tables and pivot charts in excel getting data from an external source (SQL Server 2000) using an ODBC Connection. The problem is when i want to use the same spreadsheet acceess the server from outside through the internet using an ODBC connection.

The odbc which access the sql server remotely uses as server name the ip address of the server than sql server running to.

The pivot tables when it was created it used the odbc connection accessed from with in the LAN (Server name /SERVERGROUP/SQLSERVER).

I was just wondering if there is an easy way to modify the code that the pivot tables uses to make the connection to the SQL Server with out
recreating all those pivot tables and pivot charts.

When I try to open the file remotely it fails to make a connection of course.

Any help is appreciated!

ThanksIf you are using an Excel Macro to do your queries, you are in luck. All you need to do is open the VB Editor and edit the connection string.

Otherwise, you will most likely have to recreate your queries (but if you do so, create a Macro, so you can edit it moreeasily in the future). All you need to do it turn on the Macro Recorder, build your queries as you did before, even perform any formatting, then stop the recorder. Now, if you ever need to tweek the query or change the datasource, it's simply a matter of editing the Marco code.

-b|||well thanks i knew that I could do that but I have over 20 graphs and 10 reports so it would be nice if there is a way for a quick and dirty solution. Saying all that if there is not a way to access the code that excel creates on the background when you use those pivot table wizards so I could manually modify the connection string then I guess I need to redo it from scrach and use macros this time.

Thanks for your input
