sql server reporting services : File Share Data Processing Extension Sample

Hi all, I am very new to this Reporting Services and I want to follow this
sample that comes with SQL Server 2005 Beta. However, I tried everything
according to the documentation (build the sample, deploy it by modifying the
config files, etc.). Unfortunately, when I create a new report (using the
Report Wizard) in Visual Studio 2005, I still cannot see the File Share
Information.

Searching this newsgroup pointed me to this
http://blogs.msdn.com/bryanke/archive/2004/05/14/132110.aspx#148541

However, this does not help me either.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks a lot!
Jenny

Hi Jenny,

Welcome to use MSDN Managed Newsgroup!

From your descriptions, I understood you would like to deploy
FsiDataExtension and then use it in the Report Manager. If I have
misunderstood your concern, please feel free to point it out.

Based on my knowledge, here is a sample in Reporting Services 2000 but I am
not sure whether it is available in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services.

For SQL Server 2005's issue, please post the question in the link below
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=sqlserver2005&sl
cid=us

For SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services, you could follow the steps below as
described in MSDN Online

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/RSAMPLES/ht
m/rss_sampleapps_v1_16g2.asp

- Copy Microsoft.Samples.ReportingServices.FsiDataExtension.dll to the
report server. The default location for report server extensions is
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Reporting
Services\ReportServer\bin.

- Copy the assembly to Report Designer. The default location for
extensions for Report Designer is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\Tools\ReportDesigner.

- Add the following entry to both the RSReportServer.config and
RSReportDesigner.config files under the Data element.
<Extension Name="FSI"
Type="Microsoft.Samples.ReportingServices.FsiDataExtension.FsiConnection,Mic
rosoft.Samples.ReportingServices.FsiDataExtension"/>

- To enable the generic query designer for the sample data processing
extension, add the following entry to the RSReportDesigner.config file
under the Designer element.
<Extension Name="FSI"
Type="Microsoft.ReportDesigner.Design.GenericQueryDesigner,Microsoft.Reporti
ngServices.Designer"/>

Thank you for your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions or
concerns, don't hesitate to let me know. We are always here to be of
assistance!

Yes you're right.

[quoted text, click to view]

It's available and the steps look the same to me! Anyway, I have posted my
question in that beta newsgroup as well. Thanks!


[quoted text, click to view]

I interpreted 'Copy the assembly' as 'copy the dll' as in the previous step.
Is this correct?


[quoted text, click to view]

I did all the above plus the steps in 'To configure code access security for
the sample'. I didn't know where exactly to put the CodeGroup info in the
config files unfortunately. I have tried a few spots and none succeeds. :-(

Hi there

Thank you for your help, but what I wanted was where to put the following
code group info in both the rssrvpolicy.config and rspreviewpolicy.config.

<CodeGroup class="UnionCodeGroup"
version="1"
PermissionSetName="FullTrust"
Name="FSICodeGroup"
Description="Code group for my FSI data processing extension">
<IMembershipCondition class="UrlMembershipCondition"
version="1"
Url="C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.3\Reporting
Services\ReportServer\bin\Microsoft.Samples.ReportingServices.FsiDataExtension.dll"
/>
</CodeGroup>


Thanks again and I appreciate your help!
Jenny
