I would like to print a SQL Server database diagram. I'm using SQL Server Management Studio, I right clicked on the diagram, and selected "View Page Breaks".
I wanted to have the diagram in A3 Format but when I tried to print it had 4 pages.
Is there a way to print the whole diagram in just one page?
On SQL Server Management Studio
In the Database Diagram, right click and select 'View Page Breaks'
Then from main window menu select, File > Page Setup
Select Page Size and Orientation - A3 and Landscape are most likely best options.
And Print Scale - this is the % value that should hopefully enable you to fit all tables onto one page.
Set the page zoom level on the print properties page (in addition to setting the page size to A3).
Switching back to the diagram with 'View Page Breaks' selected will show you when you have all the tables positioned properly onto one page.

I have SSRS report with many rows
When I print it, it looks nice, rows are split into multiple pages, each page has its number, that's what I want.
but when I click "View Report" button the report show up on screen with all rows in the same page and i have only one page.
Is there anyway I can make it looks like exactly how it will be printed when user click on "View Report" button
in another words I want the on screen preview to be A4 width and size
I changed the Interactive Size and Page Size, still getting all records in 1 page on the screen.
I am using SSRS 2008 R2
To display a fixed number of rows per page for an SSRS report, follow these steps:
Add a new Parent Group to the existing top level group row.
Type =CEILING(RowNumber(Nothing)/50) in the Group by expression.
50 is the number of rows you want to show up on each page.
Click OK to create the Parent Group.
Right click on the Parent Group that you have just created and select Group Properties.
On the Page Breaks tab, select Between each instance of a group
On the Sorting tab, delete all the sorting options shown.
Click OK to confirm the changes to the Parent Group.
Lastly, right click on the Parent Group and select Delete Columns only.

Below is the design of my report.
When clicking the preview button, it shows one record every page.
How to make it display multiple records until the page is fully occupied, and then the next record will be on the next page? I want something like the image below.
Looks like you have set the StartNewPage property flag on your MasterData1.
Click that band with the righ button and uncheck the Start New Page of its Menu.
Instead of defining Report DataSet, define MasterData1 DataSet.
Right click on MasterData1, Edit... select the your DataSet and set the value of Number of Records to 0. Probably this property is set with 1.
I have a report created with Digital Metaphors ReportBuilder (VCL edition, in Delphi XE3).
It's an invoice, with header, detail and footer bands.
When the data fits in one page, all is well.
If I have more data, that fills, lets say for the sake of argument, 2 pages, I would requires:
Footer band only in the last page
On all other pages, the footer band should be replaced with only the running amount from the detail band, up until that page (from the first one).
On all but the first, the header should include the running totals of all previous pages.
Something like:
Page 1:
- (Header)
- Detail
- "Value until now: (Sum of one the the fields present in the detail band)"
Page 2:
- (Header)
- "Value until now: (Sum of one the the fields present in the detail band) of previous pages"
- Detail
- Footer
I've tried to investigate group totals, using a DBCalc component, but those aren't aware of the page. It only shows the total in the end, and not at the end of the page.
Any pointers of how I could do this?
Thank you
You will need to make some use of the Calc tab, in order to decide when you want certain bands to be shown or hidden. The Report has a PageNo property which you can use to decide when to show a header or a footer, in the header or footer's BeforePrint event.
As for showing a running total at the bottom of each page, you could use a ppRegion component (which is the ReportBuilder equivalent of a Panel). Again, you can use the BeforePrint event to decide when this shows.
The running totals themselves should be done using ppVariables. As you traverse through the data, add values into each variable that you need. Put these variables in the Region mentioned above, and they will display the value as it is at the end of each page. Timing can play a part here, so you may need to adjust the Variable's CalcType, ResetType, CalcComponent and ResetComponent properties to fit your needs.
I have been using ReportBuilder for almost 10 years and believe me, everything can be done, but some operations may just take time to perfect. We now use it exclusively in our software, both for the standard reports that we issue with our product (over 300) and for users to create their own reports.
I am new to MVC 3. I have a page (for eg: "Master Page") where I have some dropdown boxes to select values and click on "Go" button (type = "Button"). Based on the selection, I am filing a grid. One of the columns in the grid will have hyperlink. Upon clicking the hyperlink, opens another page (for eg: "details Page") to display other details. Now if the user click on browser back button, the values in the controls of "Master Page" is empty. How to retain the values in the dropdown boxes and grid on "Master Page".
You're relying on behavior of the browser. Some browsers can keep this data, others don't. So it's up to programmer decide where the data must be stored. In common cases you can use the following approaches:
If you make a wizard, just make some div's hidden (you will keep wizard's steps in there), and make your own next/back buttons inside of your wizard. When the user tries to go back and next, he won't go to another page, but will switch between steps via JavaScript inside of one page (all data will be kept).
You can do the same, but keeping your data on the server. In this case, by clicking on the button, your data will be kept in the database. And will be reloaded again when the user goes back.
You can manually save data to cookies. It's okay if you have small amounts of data to be kept.
I am trying to display items retrieved from an XML DB using xforms:select1 control using appearance=xxforms:tree. The items appear collapsed or expanded automatically and the behaviour is not the same for all the items retrieved. I have the following questions regarding xxforms:tree view:
how to make sure this view shows sub-nodes (those expandable/collapsable using +/- icon) as collapsed or expanded always, irrespective of, for example, the no. of nodes covered by the + icon?
how to render select1 with tree appearance without making any of the items hyperlinks?
how to make sure no item is highlighted/selected by default?
...and although the docs say xxforms:menu is also a possible appearance (URL http://www.orbeon.com/orbeon/doc/reference-xforms-extensions#tree), the details are not available...
About which branches of the tree should be open — By default all the nodes leading to selected nodes are open, this so the selected values are all visible. But you can change this default behavior and specify which nodes should be open using the xxforms:open attribute. For more on this, see the section "Controlling which tree nodes are initially open" on Selection Controls. Note that this feature was added in October 2010, so it is not included in Orbeon Forms 3.8, and until Orbeon Forms 3.9 is released, you'll need to get a nightly build for this.
About using links in the tree — At this point, the nodes you can click on in the select1 appearance="xxforms:tree control are rendered as links, so users know that this is something they can click on to make a selection. I assume that you don't want them to show as links because the tree might be "read-only" in your case (for information only, not to make a selection). This isn' supported at this point. As a workaround, you could use CSS to change the pointer and appearance of links in the tree so to users they don't even notice that this those are links.
About the menu appearance — It works very much like the tree appearance. See for instance this example using the menu.
