hypertext links & SQL 7 databases

I have arrived at a site and been thrown this curve ball.
This company have an Access 97 application which
successfully stores hypertext links. A consultancy came
into to try and Xfer all the functionality to SQL 7 (a
financial decision & because it's there!!). The
consultancy's conclusion was for the company to upgrade
SQL from 7 to 2000 in order for hyperlinks to be stored
(or used) successfully. The consultancy did not give a
definite reason for their conclusion & the company person
involved needs a reason why SQL7 is not a viable option.
Anyone out there know why?
I have trawled the KB and searched the web for answers
without success.
Thanks in advance,
Euan.
There is no such thing as a hyperlink datatype in either SQL 7 or SQL 2000.
You're going to have to code the <a href=> part yourself, either in the
query or in the front-end application.

|||Hi
Neither SQL 7 or 2000 have a "hyperlink" data type. You would have to store
it in a char/varchar field and it would be up to the application to display
it as a hyperlink.

Hypertext link in a report.

hello :

On a hypertext link in a report, how to open the link in a new window IE. ?

Thank's.

user the following as your URL

javascript:window.open(.........

the full syntax and example of window.open can be found here http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/methods/open_0.asp

|||

Thank's for your answer ; but Where what is that I have to put that ?

I can't use the file .config ?

|||

Not too sure what you mean by referring to the .config file.

You would use this as you would with any other HTML hyperlink e.g.

normal link
<a href="test.htm">link text </a>

new window
<a href=window.open('test.htm')">link etxt </a>

When defining hyperlinks in a report you are essentially providing the contents of the href attribute in the above example.

How do you currently define your hyperlink?

|||

Thank's: but :

I I use the properties of a zone of text, and I put in anglet Navigation towards another report(relationship). Thus I do not know or I put your code.

|||

You'll need to use the "Jump to URL" option instead of the "Jump to report" option and construct the URL using an expression e.g.

="window.open('" & Globals!ReportServerUrl & "target report name" & "')"

|||

Thank you very mutch.

|||

hi,I am using SQL Reporting 2005 and javascript doesn't work on my report.Can you tell me how you made javascript working on Jump to URL|||

Hi,

JavaScript work only in browser.It will not work in the report designer.Try to run the report in browser.

Hope this helps

|||Thanks mate, I have deployed the report to the server and view it on the browser, the link disappeared I put ="java script:void(window.open('http://nww.risklog.surreyhis.nhs.uk/aspx/addrisk.aspx?fromSearch=true&riskid=" & Fields!Risk_ID.Value & "','_blank','toolbar=false'))"|||

Hi,

Think in the Report Server also you can't get that link.You can do one think in the Web application,Drag ReportViewr control and put the report in the ReportViewr.Run that web application.Then you can get the link.

Hope this helps

|||

Im trying this in my report that returns a field in the URL - I keep getting the URI scheme is not valid error. Can anyone help? My report has no globals listed, and this is confusing me since I have tried HTML as well as JAVA to get this report to jump to an open window with no luck (obviously!) - can anyone help a newbie?

Ever Gracious for your help

Hyperlinks Within Report

Hi All,
Is there a way to add hyprlinks from a location in the top of the report to
locations elsewhere in the report (similar to how HTML bookmarks are used).
I'm creating a report that will have summary information at the top of the
first page. I'd like to create links to get the user to the details for
specific detailed sections within the report (most likely these will be
sub-reports).
Thanks in advance for your help!
Kind regards - FredHi Amarnath,
> Yes very much, you need to create Bookmarks and refer the bookmark using
> "jump to Bookmark" and see to that the bookmark is unique.
Thanks - is this only supported when the report is opened "online" with the
report server? Or... is there a way to make these work in an emailed copy of
the report (for recipients of the reports via subscriptions)?
Thanks again in advance!
Kind regards - Fred

Hyperlinks is SSRS 2005

Hi All,
Please help me in using the hyperlinks in the SSRS to call a page within a
particular frame.
I have been working on a project where i a using HTML frames and SSRS is a
part of the right frame.i have to make sure that the URL
link(eg:-http://www.google.com) opens up in the right frame,and not in a
separate window.
This is how i tried doing it.
1.In a report i have put a image control.
2.I go to the properties of the image, and go to "Navigation" tab and select
"Jump to URL" combo box and edit the expression.
3.The expression that i have given is:
="javascript:void(window.open('http://www.google.com','fraRightFrame','height=500,width=400,left=0,top=0'))"
where fraRightFrame is the frame,in which want to open the URL.
After i deploy this report and try clicking on the link, a page loads with
the message "Page cannot be displayed" and in the address bar, i can see the
above javascript.
Please help me as to how i can call a URl in the same frame where the
report is running.
Note:-
I am using SQL server reporting services 2005 with SP1 along with Shreapoint
server 2003.
Waiting for your responce,
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Archana KamathPlease also note that Javascript works fine in the report.That is when i try
opening the report using the report manager /reportserver it works fine.When
i click the link, the page ('google') gets loaded.
But when i include the same report in my sharepoint site ,using the page
viewer webpart and try accessing the link,it throws up an error saying "Page
cannot be displayed" and the javascript gets pasted on the address bar.
Any idea why this behaviour?
Many thanks inadvance,

problem.

There was some problem in my sharepoint page and not in the script, which
was not letting the report to open in the specified frame.
What i did was,created a new sharepoint page with just one page viewer web
part and included the report in it which had the hyperlink and the script.
On click of the hyperlink,new page got opened in the same frame as required
by me,solving my problem.

hyperlinks in reports and the target problem

Hello Everybody:
We are developing a web site and we have the Reporting Services
Reports nested into a
iframe. One of the reports has the hyperlinks that open the same
report with different parameters.
Unfortunately by default, the report reopens in the top window and I
want to open it in the iframe, so I´ve added the "LinkTarget"
parameter to the URL address that opens the report the first time. It
works perfectly during the first click, but once the report is
reloaded, the LinkTarget parameter is lost therefore the second click
opens the same report in the top window. I have no idea how to pass to
the hyperlinks' definition the "LinkTarget" parameter.
All suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Maciej KiewraHi there Maciej
Have you tried putting the LinkTarget on the URL of the parent page
too. This solved the problem for me.
Hope it does for you!

Hyperlinks - Revisited...

Hi All,
I was able to get some hyperlinks to work within the context of a report
(from a header section to details below). However, it seems that these
hyperlinks within the report will only work when the report is accessed
online with the Report Server (through the Report Manager).
Is there a way to have the hyperlinks work in a report that is delivered via
an email subscription (i.e., the recipient's machine will not have live
access to the Report Server)?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards - FredThis can be done using bookmark where ever you want your report to jump go to
the properties ->bookmark and enter a text for identification. and in the
link select Jump to Bookmark and select the text, this works even when you
export to different formats eg. excel etc...

hyperlinks

Hi
I just upsized a database from Access to SQL everything seems to be working
fine except I had a Hyperlink field in Access which is not working with the
SQL tables and I see no data type in SQL for hyperlinks. Is there a way
around this?
Any help with the will be greatly appreciated
ChuckHyperlinks are only text, so a simple varchar datatype does it. SQL Server d
oesn't come with a
front-end development tool, which is where the interpretation of this text (
that it is an URL and
should be treated as such) takes place. I suggest you post this in a newsgro
up for the front-end dev
tool you are using.

Hyperlinking to another report

Im trying to create a link to another report from one of my fields (Budget_Reporting_Group_Description) but i only want the hyperlink to be visible and clickable for one value (Actual), how would i write out the code and where would i put it in the properties box for navigation. The report i want to link to is called Details.

I have this so far:

=Iif(Fields!Budget_Reporting_Group_Id.Value = "Actual", "Details", Nothing)

whats wrong?

Maybe you're not putting it in the correct place. The expression has to be placed in the expression for "Jump to report" under textbox properties -> Navigation tab.

Hello,

Put this in the expression for your field, and in the "Jump To Report" of the navigation properties.

=Iif(Fields!Budget_Reporting_Group_Id.Value = "Actual", "Details", Nothing)

Now, if the Id is "Actual", then you will see "Details" in the textbox and it will be clickable, which will take you to your Details report. If it's not "Actual", then the textbox will be blank, with no hyperlink.

Hope this helps.

|||I have it in the jump to report Expression box. But its not showing a hyperlink when i roll the mouse of the field. Is there another expression, or something to link it to another report. I just want the report to show a hyperlink if the value in the field is "Forecast" if not, it should not have a link to the other report.

Hyperlink to send an Email

Hello,
I am looking for a way for users to click on a textbox and send an Email. I
got that to work if I set up 'On action' URL to
'mailto:myemail@.mycompany.com'. My problem is this email address is variable.
If a user clicks next to A then Email should go to A@.myemail.com and if they
click next to B email should go to B@.myemail.com so on and so forth. I have A
and B here is value in my field MYFIELD. I tried using
mailto:Fields!MYFIELD.value that won't work.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks.Hi,
You can use the following expresion in the 'Jump to URL':
="mailto:" & Fields!MYFIELD.value
Use this with the equal sign and spaces. You can add
& "@.mycompany.com" if your field doesn't have the domain included

You have to add also the qoutes (") and & symbols. You have to use the equal
(=) to let RS to calculate the field. The next part is a string "mailto:"
including the quotes. Then you concatenate by using the &-sign to the value
part: Fields!MYFIELD.value.
Totally will be: <code>="mailto:" & Fields!MYFIELD.value</code>
That will work.

Hyperlink to open in a new blank window.

A field in one of my reports has the navigation property jump to a url, which is a Word document on our server. The problem is the Word file opens up in the existing frame of our website, instead of opening a new frame. In the past I have used _blank. Where do I place this in Visual Studio 2003 to perform this action with Reporting Services?
Thanks for your help.

Hi
it seems that you are trying to open Document in new window so here is the line to be used in Jump to Url Textbox
="javascript:void(window.open('http://www.google.com','_blank'))" this will popup google.com in new page.
if you are picking the url from database you can use this
="javascript:void(window.open('" & Fields!URL.Value &"','_blank'))"
is this you are trying to do?
Thanks
Rohit|||

Yes, that is what I'm trying to accomplish, except it doesn't work. I copy and paste the following into Reporting Services:
Advanced TextBox Properties>Navigation>Hyperlink Action:>Jump to URL:
="javascript:void(window.open('" & Fields!MyLink.Value &"','_blank'))"
I get-->
javascript:void(window.open('" & Fields!MyLink.Value &"','_blank'))" in the URL

I'm using Windows 2000 Server, SQLServer2000, and IE 6.0.29 with all service packs installed.

|||Hi,
That means you need to Install Hotfix for SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services SP2 and make sure you already have installed Reporting Services SP2, The hot fix setup will not run on computer unless you have SP2 Installed on your computer.
Here is the Link for both

I pulled one Report (RDl) on IE

For Example:-

I am havingtestreport.rdl file

I am giving another reporti.e testreport2.rdl in JUMP to URL box intestreport.rdl file

I opened the below linkwith testreport.rdl

http://localhost/reportserver/testreport

I Clicked oneone item ontestreport.rdl

I got Result on samewindow(OPENED IE) , But I want result on New Window(I have to open New Window for Sub report )

I got solution with Reporting Services SP2 package with SQL2000.RS-KB901383-v8.00.1042.00-ENGHotFix using this statement injumptoURL(

="javascript:void(window.open('http://localhost/reportserver/testreport2,'_blank'))"

But I want onlywith SQLserver2000 Reporting services only with out SP2 Package

Can u please helpme

With

Regards

Hi

I'm not sure if we can use javascript to open new window without installing HotFix

but after the installation we can open report in new window with parameters thru Jump To URL like this

="javascript:void(window.open('http://localhost/reportserver?/testReport/ReportName&rs:Command=Render&Parameter1=" & Fields!Parameter1.Value & "','_blank'))"

Thanx

|||

Iam able to open new window but not able to see any text to identify that the link is present. Any idea on this.

i have to very hardly hover in the reprot to find where the link is located.

|||You would not put the link in the expression for the pop up. The expression for the field should be normal I.E. =Fields!some_value.Value or some hard coded value, the text should appear and when using the jump to URL should pop open your window. If you are still not seeing anything check your formatting, perhaps its the same color as the background, sillier things are known to happen in developing!

Hyperlink to file on shared drive

1. No, hosting the file on a web/ftp server is not possible.
2. Yes I know about the Jump-to-URL section.
3. Only http. https, ftp, mailto and news work. file does not.
4. Embedding Javascript (window.open('file://foo/bar.txt')) works, but
only if hardcoded, which is useless.
Is there a particular reason for this? Is this going to be fixed? My
client has thousands of files that lie on shared drive. I need to
create links to these in a manner such as:
<a href="http://links.10026.com/?link=file://s:\directory\file.txt">link</a>
I don't understand why you would limit the anchor tag? According to
RFC http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt (This document specifies a
Uniform Resource Locator (URL), the syntax and semantics of formalized
information for location and access of resources via the Internet.)
You can state the following:
...
ftp File Transfer protocol
http Hypertext Transfer Protocol
mailto Electronic mail address
news USENET news
file Host-specific file names
...
Yes, I know that:
"The file URL scheme is used to designate files accessible on a
particular host computer. This scheme, unlike most other URL schemes,
does not designate a resource that is universally accessible over the
Internet"
But the thing is, MS Reports are for private networks, as well as
public ones. Why were the specs not followed?
Regards,
Roy AssalyAnyone? Bueller? Bueller? So I take it's impossible. Nobody in
Microsoft land knows if this will be fixed?

Hyperlink to a new window

I have two hyperlink-related questions:
1. How can I generate a URL from within a query or stored procedure such that it appears as a hyperlink within the report? On my first attempt, the text of the link shows but it does not appear as a "live" link within the generated report.
2. Once I've achieved #1, how can I get that link appear in a new browser window rather than the one in which the report is currently displayed?
Thanks in advance for the advice.#1:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/RShowto/htm/hrs_designer_v1_6mwb.asp
#2: Take a look at _LinkTarget device info setting:

How could I get the site1 url to show in the same window as the report and site2 to popup a new window? And if the text of these URLs are returned as fields, can I make them active links automatically or do I have to set an action on the field?

hyperlink to a blob field

SharePoint 2007. I have the SSRS Web Part embedded in a page as part
of the dashboard. The SSRS Report displayed in the SSRS Web Part
contains a link (aka Jump To Report) to a second report. I want the
second report to open in the parent SharePoint page, not in the Web

Hyperlink Target in SharePoint Report Viewer Web Part

Has anyone been successful in configuring the Hyperlink Target property in the SSRS Sharepoint Web Part? I've tried every setting, including _blank, yet the behavior does not change.

Am I doing something incorrectly or is this not implemented correctly?

I couldnt got it properly, are you trying to deploy a report in sharepoint (2007 or 2003?).

Can you please rephrase you q. ?

Hyperlink Target in Same Frame

I'm having trouble creating a hyperlink that opens the page in the same frame (_self). I have a report being displayed in a frame, and want a hyperlink to stay in the same frame. I've read all about opening a new window, etc., etc., but the techniques I've read about don't work for the "_self" target.

I've tried appending the "&rc:LinkTarget=_self" to the URL, but that doesn't work. I've also tried the javascrippt options but they don't work either. They work fine for opening a new window, but not for staying in the same frame.

When I look at the source code generated for a hyperlink in a report page, it specifically spells-out "target=_top" in the resultant code, even though I'm not specifying that anywhere. If I could only suppress that, then it might work and stay in the same frame.

Can anyone help here? Thanks.

Did you happen to solve this issue? I was just trying to do the same thing and I'm not getting anywhere.

Thanks,

Derek

Derek,
I had to add the target parameter in the report control on the web page:
<rsweb:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer1" runat="server" ProcessingMode="Remote" PromptAreaCollapsed="True" Width="100%" Height="98%" HyperlinkTarget="_self">
Now, I'm not sure if it's still needed, but I also have this in the hyperlink in the report XML:
<Action>
<Hyperlink>="http://www.somewhere.com/Page.aspx?ID=" &amp; trim(Fields!ID.Value) &amp; "&amp;rc:LinkTarget=_self"</Hyperlink>
</Action>
This worked and now the hyperlinks in the reports stay in the same frame. Hope this helps!

Hyperlink section of TextBox?

Is it possible to hyperlink one word in the middle of a TextBox?
I could put an action on the TextBox, but don't want the hyperlink to cover
the entire paragraph. The output is in PDF, so I can't use an jscript

hyperlink open new window

I have a link on my report which open new window. The code i have in advance properties of that field is :

="javascriptt:void(window.open('http://www.msn.com','_blank'))" (note: the extra "t" is intentionally added in the code, coz website block the keyword "java.....t")

It works great on testing server but it doesn't work on production server. Both testing and production servers run windows 2003 server and service pack 2 for reporting services.

Reports accessing form production server, when i click on report it opens up new window with address in address bar :

javascript:void(window.open('http://www.msn.com','_blank')) with "The page cannot be displayed" message. But if i open a new internet explorer window and copy past the same address in address bar then its open up www.msn.com. To test the production server behavior I created a test web page test.htm and added the java script to open new window, it works fine.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Ive had problems with this too!
I found it only works when you access the report via a URL such as
http://reportserver/reportserver?report
Rather than through the Report Manager:
http://reportserver/reports
Through the Report Manager I saw the same behaiviour "The page cannot be displayed" message but copying and pasting worked :S
Although Im not surew this is your problem as it works on your tst server, but not prod
Hope this helps

Hyperlink on a report to download a file

users; I didn't want them to see the raw xml. If they could download it
directly from the report and open it in IE (which is default), then they'd
see it formatted like a webpage since the xml references an xsl file. That
would have been my preference.
Anyway, I took Chris Hays' advice and implemented a small ASP.NET site that
serves up the xml file with the xsl. It was pretty painless and took about
an hour.

Hyperlink not working when rendered in PDF

the hyperlinks from within the report we get the following error :

we have used javascript in the jump to URL expression:

It sounds like there is either an ActiveX control or an image/etc that
is blocked in Internet Explorer (I'm assuming your default browser)
that exists on the project.aspx page. You might want to allow ActiveX
in the Internet Explorer settings (note that this could be a security
risk outside your process). Also, there might be an error in the
project.aspx page itself. I would guess that this would not throw an
error in Firefox. Hope this helps.

Hyperlink is not working

Dear all,

I would like to ask a question here about the hyperlink in reporting service.

I have programmed a report and it runs perfectly in my PC. Unfortunately when I deployed it to a server, the hyperlinks in that report can not be clicked. Is it because of the version at the server which is 9.00.2047.00? My development version is 9.00.3042.00.

Hope can hear from you soon. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Not sure if this is a version issue, do you have a sub-report linked witht the hyperlink, if yes are you deploying that also to server....

|||

I have the same issue but my hyperlink has linked with other report with parametrs but doesn't work.

|||

Hi,

Parameters can be the problem. About using something like that for a report with parameters?

http://reporting.onsemi.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fProduct+Reports%2fProduct+Launch+Packages&rs%3aCommand=Render&Division=%23%23&RTM_Bucket=Last%206%20months

or something like that for another web site with parameters in the URL?

="javascript:void window.open('http://www.onsemi.com/PowerSolutions/product.do?id=" & CStr(Fields!WEB_PART_NAME.Value) & "&ppt=Y','_blank')"

or any combination of the above.

Note that in preview mode, the java script version will not work. It works only from the browser.

Regards,

Philippe

Hyperlink in the report

I want to display a hyperlink in the report. I browsed a little bit and found that the TextBox can be used as a hyperlink.
Under the Navigation tab in the selection "Jump To Url", I wrote http://www.microsoft.com.
It's taking me to microsoft site but its using up the existing window. How to open the site in a
different window.

And Just as an example Iam hardcoding the Url as microsoft.com. Can we also give this value
dynamically as one of the fields in the database.

the control where the report will run can be configured with "Target" so it will go to the window you want to,

The "Jump To Url" can be an expression that you program with data from your report and constants.

|||

I will be opening this report as pdf. So, when I click the link its going to the Url but using up an existing window, instead of opening in a new window.

HyperLink in reports?

it possible?Right click on the field you want them to use.

Then fill in the Navigation Info

not automatic)

hyperlink in reporting services

Hi
I have developed a report using microsoft reporting
services with certain fields.
In my report the user enters name (which is a parameter) and the
report is displayed
Inside my report. I have a field studentID which should be a link
which when clicked should take me to a new report which is a report
in extranet.
Currently I dont have access to that rdl and for certain reasons, I am
asked to link to that report by
coding a hyperlink in development
I know that in the text box under action properties I need to give the
url , but its not working
Should i specify the student id anywhere .
What and where should I code'
ThanksYou want to use Jump to URL (since you don't have the RDL). You have to make
it an expression and create the appropriate URL string (and yes, you need to
reference your parameter when creating this string.).
The best way to develop this is to have a report with nothing on it except a
text box and the report parameter that you will be using. Then set the
textbox to an expression and create the appropriate string. This will allow
you to see the string and whether it works.
Note the first thing you should be able to do is put the URL into IE and
make sure you have it working prior to trying to create the URL.
In books online search on URL
Once you know how to create the appropriate expression right mouse click,
properties on the field and go to the navigation tab.

As far as I know, wild cards are not allowed like this, otherwise, in
terms of SSRS/Reporting Services, you will want to right-click the top

That sounds like a front-end feature. The URL itself is just a character
string. SQL Server doesn't do anything with the data, 'cept store it.
You could put the URL in a varchar(255).
Where are you looking to use the URL?

Hyperlink Datatype in SQL Server?!

Dear All,

I just want to know ,wheather there is any way to store 'hyperlink' in sql Table as in Ms Access.

or

What is the Procedure to store a Path of a file in SQL table and file should be able to retrieve through the query.

Thhank you

Graceson MathewI think that you will find that what you are asking for is a mix of back-end storage and front-end (client) formatting. Access really blurs the line between these two (very different) functions. SQL Server, on the other hand, is clearly a back-end storage system (ie, minimal client-side formatting features).

What you will end up having to do is to store text values for URLs and/or file locations and then use a client-side script/program/tool to format the data for presentation.

I personally like to pull the data using an ADO stream formatted in XML and then transform it with an XSL template. It's fast (as long as the recordsets aren't too big), it's flexible and gives you a great deal of control over how the data is represented.

This is not, however, the only solution.

HyperLink Column value is not displaying with the blue color?

Hi all,
In my Report, I am using column value with (Jump to Report) hyperlink action, while displaying it in the report, it is not displaying with default blue color. After visiting the report or URL site, it has to change back to red color.
I have checked my HTMLViewer.css file.

And I have created the custom CSS file with set of HYPERLINK color combination, but it is not displaying anything at all.

/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?rs:Command=Render&rc:Stylesheet=test.css">http://<myReportServer>/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?rs:Command=Render&rc:Stylesheet=test.css

and test.css consist of the following

.ActiveLink:link
{
color: yellow;
text-decoration: none
}

.ActiveLink:hover
{
color: brown;
text-decoration: underline
}

.ActiveLink:visited
{
color: blue;
text-decoration: none
}

.ActiveLink:visited:hover
{
color: red;
text-decoration: underline
}

.ToolbarFind

{
display: none;
}

.ToolbarExport

{
display: none;
}

.ToolbarZoom

{
display: none;
}

.ToolbarRefresh

{
display: inline;
}
.ToolbarPrint

{
display: none;
}

Where could be the problem? Why it is not displaying hyperlink color as expected. I am using the SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 CTP and Service Pack 1.

If anyone knows this answer to this question, reply me soon.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Siva,

I just wanted to chime in and say that I have the same problem. I can create drillthrough links in my report that work, but the link does not show as highlighted. I was just using the basic report templates.

Were you able to figure this out?

Thanks for any help..

The solution is pretty simple :-).

On the textbox on which you have your link, set the style properties to show the color you want.

Because reporting services allows you to render to many render formats, it is not necessarily true that you want underlining/highlighting. For example, PDF reports when printed look ugly when you have underlining/blue colored links.

Hope that helps,

I have a problem...I am using the htmlview.css file to display a report. On the report they want the links to be user friendly. If the user clicks on the like it turns red showing the user that they visited it, but that is not working. Also I am trying to fix the hover function and it is not working. Is there something wrong with this code and are there any suggesstions.

HELP!
