I am using ssrs 2012.
How can I repeat username in the report header? ReportItem doesn't work if the report spans across more than one page.
I was told to use Internal parameters but there is no such option with rdlc.
Can this somehow be done in codebehind?
Thanks
I am a bit confusing about your problem.
Just add a page header, rigth click on report design surface, insert->page header:
Add a text box and set the expression value to the following built-in field
You should get something like this in every page:
Note I am using rdl but built-in fields is available for both RDL and RDLC.
Let me know if this was helpful.
I need to post SAS code on my website. However, if I do write my HTML to highlight SAS cod it would take me a long time.
How can I transform the SAS code into nice looking HTML counterpart?
I would simply copy/paste from your editor into a rich text editor (ie, MS Word or similar) that is capable of producing an HTML file. Alternately, some text editors like UltraEdit are capable of doing SAS markup.
I just discovered that Gist actually supports SAS Syntax highlighting!
This is what you see if you create a hello_world.sas file on Gist.
If you'd like to embed SAS codes into (say) a Wordpress.org blog article (like myself), the way I usually do this is:
Create a Markdown file on Gist. For example, see this Gist Markdown file that I created ). Notice that an "embed link" is created for you:
In your Wordpress.org website, already have the plugin oEmbed Gist already installed.
When you create a new blog post in Wordpress, in the body field (where you'd normally type out content of your blog post), simply copy and paste the Gist embedded link into the the body.
Publish that blog post and you shall see it renders beautifully!
(alternatively, if you wish to write your Wordpress blog post normally, and embed multiple Gist SAS codes, just simply save the gist files as .sas files (instead of one .md file), and embed multiple embed URLs (corresponding to each code blogs).
More info see this stackoverflow forum - where I learnt about the awesome Gist and Wordpress Gist oEmbed combo!
As of SAS Entreprise Guide v5.1, you can right-click on the editor window and select 'Copy HTML source to clipboard'.
You can then paste the HTML directly into the HTML source of your page.
Note that this may even work in earlier versions of the SAS Entreprise Guide - version 5.1 just happens to be the version I have installed.
Thanks to #otto for providing the original idea of using Enterprise Guide.
I have found no great solution. SAS does not seem to be supported by any of the javascript highlighters.
At least three text editors I know of can export coloured HTML to the clipboard (and hence your page, or Word or PowerPoint).
Ultraedit
Notepad++
Emacs (ESS) (on Mac I use Aquamacs)
(possibly) SAS enhanced editor... not sure about this.
Another possibility is TextWrangler on Mac for which a SAS syntax colouring file is available. But I have not tried this. [update: it is not very good. many keywords missing.
A fifth possibility is SublimeText 3. It has a great syntax colouring plugin. It even gets
y = X * z ;
* but this really is a comment ;
coloured correcty.
The SAS colouring package is not included by default but is downloadable from implementing-vdw.blogspot.ch/2012/10/new-sublime-text-package-available-for.html
A trial version is free and ST is cross platform]
Somewhat off-topic -- but is the next question :-)
For preparing papers and documents there is a LaTeX package listings (which works if you use BeraMono instead of Courier) and a newer package based on it called SASnRdisplay. These packages produce great output and it is easy to add keywords. Also for listings you need to allow lowercase keywords with the sensitive=false option.
Can you use Enterprise Guide?
When I copy and paste from the EG edit window into something that supports rich text (word, an outlook email, etc), I get all of my colors and highlighting.
From here, you just have to grab the HTML and stick it online. It may not be the prettiest HTML (WYSIWYG output rarely is), but it works. In Outlook 2010, you can right click and "View Source" on any mails that have been sent/received (or as a trick, you can paste it into a blank email and then close it and view source in your "Drafts" folder).
As I said, it is some ugly HTML (and all on one line), but I'd assume that the output of any javascript highlighter is also fairly ugly:
<b><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:navy;background:white'>data</span></b><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:black;background:white'> test;<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none'><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:black;background:white'><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span></span><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:blue;background:white'>set</span><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:black;background:white'> test;<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none'><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:black;background:white'><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span></span><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:blue;background:white'>length</span><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:black;background:white'> fakevar $</span><b><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:teal;background:white'>16</span></b><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:black;background:white'>;<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:navy;background:white'>run</span></b><span style='font-family:"Courier New";color:black;background:white'>;</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
You can see it rendered here:

I think you can the following:
Store your codes on https://gist.github.com/
Use the embed URL code (provided in https://gist.github.com/) in your site as...(Run Code Snippet):
<script src="https://gist.github.com/AlyssonJalles/b22bc10a707ef909024b.js"></script>
*Maybe this isn't a 100% solution, but is good because when you update your code on Gist, the code will be updated in your website. Futhermore, if you use wordpress.com, you just copy the URL and paste in your page editor to see the code.
If you're creating your own HTML page (and find the gist solution undesirable), checkout CodeMirror.
http://codemirror.net/mode/sas/index.html
var editor = CodeMirror.fromTextArea(document.getElementById("code"), {
mode: 'sas',
styleActiveLine: true,
lineNumbers: true,
readOnly: true

Emacs can do this using Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS). There are two contexts which I find useful for editing SAS code. The first is sas-mode for editing whole SAS files, the second is using a source block within org-mode for literate programming.
I highly recommend reading the Emacs tutorial. If you've just installed Emacs, just open it and press Enter (on the 'Emacs Tutorial' link). Otherwise, press C-h t.
1. Install ESS
Press M-x list-packages and search for Emacs Speaks Statistics via C-s emacs speaks statistics. Press i to mark the package for install. Press x to install all marked packages.
2. Load ESS
To load ESS run M-: (require 'ess-site). For more details, refer to the install instructions.
SAS Mode
Load SAS mode within the current buffer via M-x sas-mode. This provides syntax highlighting according to your current theme. For example, this is a light theme.
Org Mode
Load org-mode via M-x org-mode. Create a source block by typing <s and pressing TAB to autocomplete. This creates a source code block:
#+BEGIN_SRC
#+END_SRC
Then type sas to let Org Mode know that the source code is SAS code.
#+BEGIN_SRC sas
#+END_SRC
To toggle syntax highlighting within the source block, run M-: (setq org-src-fontify-natively t).
Any code within the block then takes on the syntax highlighting for SAS. The coloring is dependent on your theme. This is an example of a dark theme:
Org-mode allows for exporting to HTML using C-c C-e h o. With htmlize, the syntax highlighting will be exported too.
If you want to merely highlight the code for programming purposes, then the best option for you as highlighted above is a text editor. I have worked on SAS for close to a decade across platforms and organizations. I find the old crimson editor the best as it is freeware, is very light and supports many functions that are typically needed.
To ensure SAS specific syntax highlighting, you need to select the sas keyword and syntax files. These files are provided with installation only.
Please follow the following steps
1. Install crimson editor (i am using version 3.70)
2. Click on Tools->Preferences->File->Syntax Type
3. In the syntax type, select the button with three dots on bottom right. It will give you a pop up and select sas.spc
4. In the Keywords, select the button with three dots on bottom right. It will give you a pop up and select sas.key
5. In the description type SAS
6. In the Top right frame/panel, select SAS from the last option
And you are good to go
Edit: The Crimson Editor can be obtained from http://www.crimsoneditor.com/
An old question an an old programming language, but maybe somebody (like me) is still interested in yet another answer:
How to generate SAS code highlighting using Notepad++
There is a [https://blogs.sas.com/content/sasdummy/2017/08/25/npp-with-sas/] (blog entry by SAS themselves) explaining how to use syntax highlighting for SAS code in Notepad++. It basically refers to a freely available Notepad++ plugin at https://github.com/cjdinger/sas-npp
The next step is optional: You can export the highlighted code from Notepad++ to HTML using the NppExport plugin, see e.g. https://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/nppexport-for-notepad-export-highlighted-code-in-html-rtf-format/
How to highlight SAS code in VIM
There is a nice introduction on how to use VIM for editing SAS code from the SAS community: http://www.sascommunity.org/planet/blog/category/vim/
The basic idea is that you obtain a syntax definition file for VIM and install that, see
https://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1999
To highlight text in a macro input the following line:
%macro __enable_eg_syntax_highlight; %mend __enable_eg_syntax_highlight;
So where everything was just black the above line will bring back the SAS formatting.

I have a Rich Text control bound to a Body field in my Domino Document data source ... all is good for formatting text , :) emoticons and the usual stuff. The problem is when I try to paste or upload an inline image I get the following error shown in the inline image (hmmmm, works here) ...
Most likely a mis-understanding of the steps:
Select the file
Click on upload image (<-- that one gets lost on lots of users)
Click OK
For a more advanced user experience:
Use the RichText Editor Evolution from OpenNTF. That makes your life much easier.
I'm new to Adobe InDesign Server and I'm having a hard time finding a good kitchen sink app. All the examples I got from the SDK seem to partially work. All I'm trying to do is use a master page from InDesign from the server side and edit certain text fields. For example placing first and last name in particular text fields. Does anyone know of a good place to get examples code that shows all the features or how I would approach this problem?
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/indesign/documentation.html#idserver Has a lot of resources that is useful when starting out. In particular http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/indesign/cs55-docs/InDesignServer/ids-solutions.pdf includes a number of code examples for various common operations.
As to your specific example, the typical way to go about it is:
1. Get the page object from the master pages list.
2. Iterate over each text field on the page.
3. Somehow identify the fields, for example by setting the script label in the template document and checking the labels of each text field you iterate through.
4. Set the contents of the text field.
A lot of the official InDesign documentation is partial.
Jongware also hosts the complete reference documentation:
http://www.jongware.com/idjshelp.html
Probably the reason why teh IDS documentation isn't that exhaustive is that dealing with the server version is an extension of the classical indesign use. So the exception of some peculiarities detailed in the ids sdk docs, you will find most of the help with InDesign Scripting guides ;)
i have a checkbox in the lead entity.When i check on the checkbox,a PDF Note should produce
pulling information from the Lead form and is emailed.Here how will i create a pdf note pulling
information from Lead and email?Can anyone tell me how to do this?
Thanks

If you haven't already solved your problem, the best way to do this would be to write an SSRS report that then exports to PDF. You can have your button link directly to the report with the Export to PDF parameter in the querystring.
