ReportParameters setting ValidValues
sql server reporting services:
Hi, I am trying to pass parameters using Reporting service web service. Here is the code I used. I feel I am not passing validvalues properly. Can anyone help me. Thanks in advance. ReportingService rs = new ReportingService(); rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials; ReportParameter[] repParameters = rs.GetReportParameters(@"/passdownreport/Report1", null, false, null, null); if(repParameters != null) { // Prepare report parameter. ParameterValue[] parameters = new ParameterValue[repParameters.Length]; for(int k=0; k<=repParameters.Length-1;k++) { if(repParameters[k].Name == "EmployeeNames") { parameters[k] = new ParameterValue(); parameters[k].Name = "EmployeeNames"; parameters[k].Value = "john,mary,scott"; } repParameters[k].ValidValues.SetValue(parameters[k].value,k); } rs.SetReportParameters(@"/passdownreport/Report1",repParameters); ===================Thanks===============
Would like to elaborate the error I am getting. Near line mentioned below, it is giving an error like "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". rs.SetReportParameters(@"/passdownreport/Report1",repParameters); When I debug, Valid values is coming as undefined. I am new to Reporting services programming, and I tried all possible options from my side. Please help me if anu one of you know, where I went wrong.

Bob, I have run into something similiar to this using DefaultValues. If the original report creation did not have a specified DefaultValue for a report parameter I can not access it or set a value to it. If a DefaultValue was established at report creation then I could do what I wanted. So I'm guessing you aren't getting access to ValidValues because you didn't specify any on the original report creation. It's worth a look, I could be way off on your problem, it just appears the same as my problem when the value comes up as <undefined>. I know of no solution and am trying to get a response from a MS guy. Hope this helps understand your problem a bit more.

Hi Frank, Thanks for your help. I have created a new report with default parameter/value in it. And I used this report with following code. Still I am facing the same problem. Is there any ValidValues option in report creation? bob. [quoted text, click to view] "Stoma_Kalos" wrote: > Bob, > > I have run into something similiar to this using DefaultValues.

I was referring to DefaultValues in my case, because I was trying to retrieve the DefaultValues not ValidValues. In your case, I would assume you need to add Available Values in the Report Parameter you are trying to retrieve ValidValues from. Again, I am just taking a stab here, and I am not perfectly sure, but it's worth a try. I don't see any MVPs knocking either of us over with answers to our questions. Good Luck.

Ok, I believe I've got the answer to both our problems...this may need personal tweeking...the main line is the if statement...check it out: foreach (ReportParameter paramRpt in aryReportParameters) { if (paramRpt.ValidValues == null) paramRpt.ValidValues = new string[1]; paramRpt.ValidValues.SetValue(value, 0); } [quoted text, click to view] bob <bob@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:<6B2337EB-9268-4C3B-B69E-45ABDF5EA094@microsoft.com>... > Hi Frank, > > Thanks for your help. > > I have created a new report with default parameter/value in it.

Hi Kalos, Thank you very much for your help. It wokrd for me but I had to make little modification, as mentioned below. Because ValidValues does not accept String[], so I coded like this and it is working. ValidValue v = new ValidValue(); v.Label = "LastName"; v.Value = "Abbas"; foreach (ReportParameter paramRpt in repParameters) { if (paramRpt.ValidValues == null) paramRpt.ValidValues = new ValidValue[1]; paramRpt.ValidValues[0] = v; } Regards, bob [quoted text, click to view] "Stoma_Kalos" wrote: > Ok, I believe I've got the answer to both our problems...this may need > personal tweeking...the main line is the if statement...check it out: > > foreach (ReportParameter paramRpt in aryReportParameters) > { > if (paramRpt.ValidValues == null) > paramRpt.ValidValues = new string[1]; > > paramRpt.ValidValues.SetValue(value, 0); > } > > > bob <bob@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:<6B2337EB-9268-4C3B-B69E-45ABDF5EA094@microsoft.com>... > > Hi Frank, > > > > Thanks for your help. > > > > I have created a new report with default parameter/value in it.
