Issue With Report Link(Action) in Report builder 3.0 - reportbuilder3.0

I want to create drilldown report when click to particular row it will open another report.
I do this step. right click on particular field-> TextBox Properties -> Action then checked Go to report option But when I click on Browse then it didn't display any report. I have multiple reports(.rdl file) on my local.
How can I define path ?

You don't see your local reports because Report Builder supports only paths to report servers.
Taken from note at msdn:
In Report Builder, paths to items must specify items on a report server. Paths to items on a file system are not supported. You can preview a report that uses these items only if you are connected to the report server where the items are located.

CRM Dynamics - How to re-upload a customised ".rdl" file belonging to an existing report

I've been asked to make cosmetic changes to a report created by a third-party consultant on our CRM Dynamics 2011 system. The report apparently has a "report type" of "Existing File" when viewed in the "Edit" window, but has a "report type" of "Reporting Services Report" when viewed in the list of reports. If anyone can provide some clarity on this, it may be of some help.
Anyway I've been able to download the ".rdl" file behind the report and make the necessary changes (removed a paragraph in the footer). When I re-upload my new ".rdl" file and click the "Save" button, I receive the error of "You can not change the report type for an existing report". However I'm only attempting to change the report template rather than the report type.
My second strategy was to create a new report in the same way that I assume the original report was created. When creating a new report, the first option I am given is to select the "Report Type".
If I go down the path of selecting "Report Wizard Report" for the report type, then I don't get the option to select an ".rdl" file.
If I go down the path of selecting "Existing File" for the report type, then when I try and run my report it unhelpfully downloads the ".rdl" file for me! It also regards the new report as having a "report type" of "Other Report" when viewed in the list of reports.
Can anyone put me out of my misery?
Thanks in advance.
The problem with re-uploading the amended report was with the file extension of the upload.
For some reason when downloading the report file, CRM Dynamics decided to put single quotes around the file names. So instead of:
ReportName.rdl
I received:
'ReportName.rdl'
Once I removed the quotes from the file name, I was able to re-upload successfully.

Change deployment location of SSRS report and sub-reports

I need to change the destination of an SSRS report in Visual Studio 2010 so that when I deploy it, it goes to the correct folder. There appear to be about 6 or 10 places where I can change options, I just cannot seem to find the right place to change these deployment options.
On this particular report, there are two subreports. I would like to deploy these two reports to a separate (subfolder) under the folder which contains the main report. I assume that the changes I make in #1 are for SSRS, not for a particular report (is that correct). If so, I will need to change the path for those subreports as well.
Once I have the reports deployed to the correct folders, how do I change the path to these subreports in the Visual Studio report designer? Right now, the reports render properly in the report designer, but when I go to the report server and run the main report, the subreports do not render properly.
I expect this report, along with its sub-reports to render properly from the report server.
You can only change the deployment path in the project properties, so this affects all reports. I did try to setup a similar scenario to what you want bit to be honest it was more trouble than it was worth.
What I ended up doing was having all subreport names start with an underscore and then running a quick bit of t-sql to hide them. I don't have access to the server now but the t-sql is something like
USE ReportServer
UPDATE dbo.Catalog SET Hidden = 1 WHERE LEFT(Name, 1) = '_'
The other way you can do this is to dump all the reports in the same folder but don't give users access to it. Then Create a new folder and add linked reports in there that point back to the original versions, you can do this using the Web Portal (report manage in older versions). It's a pain as you have to do each report individually. You could probably write a script to create the catalog items for you but I've not tried that so can't comment on how easy that would be.
So, saving the subreports to a different folder was straight forward, once I figured out where the project properties were located. Once I deployed those to subreports, all I had to do was change the path to those subreports in the design view of the main report.
Right click on the sub-report, select subreport properties and enter the full path to the sub-report.

Upload a file through a microsoft webtest

I have a .webtest that I am intending to use to load test uploading a file to a website. I am using the webtest framework that is built into visual studio with the intention of running my larger scale tests from azure.
I created a new webtest and recorded the steps, including the file upload. This all recorded correctly, but the problem is that the File Upload Parameter was just recorded the filename (not the bytes). This means that the test needs to have access to the file that will be uploaded during running.
I also added the file to the project and set it to be content.
The problem is that the file isn't getting copied over during running. I found a blog post https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/edglas/2008/08/05/how-to-upload-a-file-in-a-web-test/ which appears to answer my question but the visual studio ui has changed and the option is no longer available.
I cannot use an absolute url c:\files\filename.docx because i need to run this from azure.
I also cannot post the file somewhere on the internet because it has to be a path, not a url.
I have posted a queston to the blog post, but it doesn't seem very active and am really at a lose for where to go from here.
TIA,
-Logan
The "Deployment" functionality shown in the last screenshot of Ed Glass's blog is now in the .testsettings files of the solution. (The blog shows a window with a "localtestrun.testrunconfig" file.) If you have more than one .testsettings file then ensure that the context menu of the correct file has the "Active load and web test settings" ticked.
In the deployment section of the .testsettings file, tick "Enable deployment" and add the directory or file(s) to be used in the tests. After running a test you should then find that the items have been copied into a subdirectory of the TestResults\{{name+date+time}} directory, as described in the blog.
New .testsettings files can be added to a solution as follows. From the context menu of the solution (the topmost item in Solution Explorer), select Add => New item => Test settings (from the left hand side of the "Add new item" window), then fill in the forms. New files can also be created via the "Save as" button in the test settings editor, but this requires a file to already be open.
When creating new .testsettings files I recommend changing the "Name" field in the "General" section to match the filename. Not doing so (after using "Save as") has left me confused because two or more files appear to have the same name. I normally have up to three .testsettings file in a solution: One for local use when developing tests. Another (often named "cloud" or "vsts") configured for cloud load testing with VSTS. The third version (often named "agent" or "remote") for use with controllers and agents.

Oracle designer - generate scripts for multiple table/views at same time

I have made changes in multiple tables in Toad and I am now required to generate the script for a release in Oracle Designer.
So I made the changes in Oracle Designer and need to generate the script - is there any way I can do this for multiple tables/views at the same time or will I end up with lots of generated script??
Thanks in advance
Just select all the tables and views you want to have generated. Start the generation by pressing the button in the toolbar. The first page of the dialog shows all the objects you have selected.
You will get a file per table/view and 1 file with *.sql extension to call all the single files.

They moved it. It is located in the View menu under Report Data.
Exists one option on the report named Report Data where you can build a New Datasources and DataSets.
