I have a problem with a rdlc page breaking and table with multiple detail rows. Tried everything that crossed my mind, none works.
As you can see on the picture below, the table has 7 detail rows.
Now, when report is rendered, the page gets spitted between, for example, rows 2 and 3 which is bad.
I wish to keep all of detail rows (that belong to one record) on the same page. How can I accomplish this?
I think you should create a group based on whatever joins the one record together, let's call it PlaceID. So right click, Add Group, choose what to group by.
Then, under the row groups you should have a group by PlaceID, and underneath that, a row marked "Details". Highlight Details in the lower section, which should highlight in the report the rows involved. Set the KeepTogether property of that section to True, should keep details on the same page.
If you don't want to use the Group option mentioned by Jerry, this option in the Table Properties may help...

I have a report in SSRS that uses a matrix with static columns.
Here are the static columns:
After generating the report, the rows with same values end up being grouped together:
Is there any way to get rid of these groups? I'd rather the values be repeated for each row, so it looks more like an excel sheet.
Here is a better picture of my report design plus the row and column groups. These groups were created when I added them to the matrix and are not needed as far as what I can tell for my report:
As you are not doing any calcuations on hte row gorups, there is no need for them.
Delete all but one of the row groups by right-clicking the rowgroup in the Row Groups pane at the bottom of the screen and choosing Delete Group. If prompted, choose Delete Group Only, otherwise it will delete the associated columns too.
When you noly have one group left, right-click it and choose Group Properties and delete the group expression, this will change it to be a details style group.
Make sure the Hide Duplicate expression is back to default (blank or None) in case you changed it earlier.
That should work. I replicated a similar scenario to your and the above step did the trick.
You will probably also need to go back to your group properties and set the sorting options to ensure data is sorted correctly.
I need to build a report (in Visual Studio) that takes an ObjectDataSource, and groups the data into separate pages. Each page needs to contain 2 graphs and a table that deal with that particular group of data.
How can I approach this? There is some documentation on page breaks on groups in a table, but my pages need to contain charts as well. Is there a demo that shows how to build what I need?
Eventually I will also need to add this report into a ReportBook, but first things first.
If I understand your question correctly this should be straightforward:
Create a new report
Add a group definition to group the data into the two distinct groups that you want to display. [Careful here because if you don't define your groups correctly, you could end up with more than 2 pages] Use a Boolean or "greater than" and "less than or equal" (or vice versa) are your best bets.
Size the Group Details section to be the size of the page you want (8.5"x11" or whatever fits on "one page")
Insert a Panel into the Group Details section and expand it to be the same size as the Group Details section
Anchor the panel to all sides, and set the CanGrow and CanShrink properties to "false"
Inside the Panel add your Graphs and Table and bind to the grouped data
Set the Page Break property of the Group Footer to: "After" to separate the data into two pages
Just a quick question, everytime I hit "edit" "add row" it adds the row but not at the bottom of the table, it usually places it like 5-10 rows from the bottom and while it's not a huge deal it's just time consuming to move it and confusing at times because they're random rows all over now. Is their a setting or a certain way to add rows so they just get added to the bottom of the fusion table instead of randomly throughout?
The rows will not be displayed randomly.
They will be displayed based on the order-settings.
When you didn't define a sort-column they will be ordered by their internal rowID, and that's the issue: the rowID's are not consecutive.
So the answer is: No, you can't.
The only workaround would be to add another column with a incrementing Number(and sort by this column), but I wouldn't suggest it.
I currently have a detailed report to design:
A report which has different header-footer-detail for the first and rest of the pages. I tried to overcome the challange by using 2 Master Pages (not quite achieved anything yet) but I am stuck at the point which row count of 1st and rest of the pages... 1st page has 20 rest of the pages have 35 rows. Namely the question is:
"How can I set different pagebreak intervals for the table for each page?"
PS: BIRT version: 3.7
Edit: I've tried to create a group on row number and put a filter on row number to maintain flow between 2 different tables but no luck. (It didnt make real sense to put row filter but tried anyway :))
What you may need to do in the body section of your report is create a grid of one column and two rows. In the advanced properties for the upper cell, look under the section property for the Master Page setting, set that value equal to the name of your first master page. Place your report contents in that cell and set the master page references to your first master page as well. Repeat this for the second cell and references to the second page. Your table(s) have an advanced property for page break interval that you can adjust to control how many rows go on a page.
However if you want your table data to flow continuously from the first page into the second page and onward, I am not sure if this is possible but will update my answer if I find a way.
I need to change the orientation of a table in a BIRT report so that the table header is vertical instead of horizontal.
Is this possible? I don't want to use a Crosstab.
It seems this thread is still being pointed at so I posted an example of a horizontal table layout using a crosstab. I know it won't help the original author but others following this thread now may find this helpful.
To create the horizontal grouping, first create your query like normal, then create a Data Cube. In this data cube, drag each field that you want into a group. Then drag a new crosstab on the report and drag each field into the top right column group area. It will create a new header row for each field. Don't put anything in the left side (Rows) and don't put anything in the measure field (bottom-right). This will create labels on the left... and the data will extend out to the right.
The report design example can be downloaded from: http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/files/file/1079-horizontal-table-using-crosstab/

If you want dataset records to be reported across the page, this would have to be done via a crosstab.
If you want dataset records to be reported down the page, this can't be done automatically as far as I know. However, it can be done by inserting a new detail line in your report table object for each database field to be reported, then moving column headings from the heading row into the first column's detail rows and moving record values into the second column's detail rows.
So, for example, a report with 6 columns in it would become a two column report with six detail rows.
Not in box (up to 3.7). You have to use 3'd party libs like that one.
