From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Miller, Todd Sent: Wednesday, September 25, 2013 1:03 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [mssms] Reporting SSRS problems I am having ASP reporting withdrawl. There are certain workflows that I rely on heavily that I can't figure out how to mimic in 2012. Is there a way in SSRS to make filtering behave more like it did in ASP reports? I mean, type in a little bit of test into a box, select a value and have that value pass back to the text box? Here is what I am talking about..... Is there a way to do something like this? www.jqueryui.com/autocomplete<http://www.jqueryui.com/autocomplete> Type the text "script" into the box - it shows all the values with script as filter text. I can select one and then edit it too. These drop down lists in the canned reports are worthless. Drop down lists of collections list every collection - hundreds or thousands of values. When I want to see what machine have a particular piece of software installed, I have to pick from a drop down, or know the name exactly. The dropdown filter is somewhat useful, but once you have selected a value in the dropdown, you cannot edit the value - that sucks. ________________________________ Notice: This UI Health Care e-mail (including attachments) is covered by the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C. 2510-2521, is confidential and may be legally privileged.
