I know you can name excel sheets with Report Builder 2008 2.0 R2 but I was wondering there was a way to do it in Report Builder 2008 2.0? Any work arounds?
To my knowledge this isn't possible; that feature was introduced in R2 specifically in response to user requests.

One of my customers is trying to migrate an old WSS 3.0 SP1 server to Office 365 ( better late than never :) ).
Unfortunately, he never added the SP2 on this server and he doesn't have an installer. We tried to add the SP2 from "Microsoft Update Catalog" but with no effect on this server.
A SP2010 farm was created to migrate the site collections with the SharePoint Migration Tool. However, the SP2 is required to upgrade the content databases to SP2010.
We also tried to use a tool like ShareGate but the size of the sites collections is to important with a big impact in term of delay. My customer don't want to buy a specific tool for a "one shot".
Does someone know if it's possible to download an installer of WSS 3.0 with SP2 (or SharePoint 2007 with SP2) ? I found a lot of broken link because of this old version.
Also, do you think it could be possible to export a WSS 3.0 SP1 site collection and import it directly in SP2010 with Powershell command (I mean especially because of the missing SP2 and the size > 70GB) ?
Thank you !
I am using the SQL managment studio to run the import wizard to get data from excel file (XlSX). I get the following error:
External table is not in the expected format. (Microsoft Office Access Database Engine)
The excel file is not password protected and it was created in office 2003 (95% sure)
I have read articles suggesting missing drivers. I have installed all the following:
Microsoft Office version Download
2016 Microsoft Access 2016 Runtime
2013 Microsoft Access 2013 Runtime
2010 Microsoft Access 2010 Runtime
2007 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components
Nothing of these worked for me. However; if I open the excel file, click save, close it and then import it using the wizard it works.
The problem is that I would like to automate this process. So opening 200 files, save them, and then close them is not an option.
My specs:
windows 10,
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 12.0.4459.0
Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 12.0.4459.0
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 10.0.14393.0
Microsoft MSXML 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0
Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.11.14393.0
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0.30319.42000
Operating System 6.3.14393
The only thing that I found starnge here is the following:
Microsoft MSXML 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0.
Is this the correct value. If not, how do I update it?
This is my second day looking for a solution to this problem with no luck. If anyone could help.
I'm trying to add a Project Data Source in a GridView in DevExpress.
I click on the little arrow on the above right of the Gridview. I choose 'Add project Data Source'.
Then I choose, a Data Type source => DATABASE.
Then, 'Database model' =>DATASET.
Then, for 'Data connection' I choose MS SQL Server.
I then choose the server and I get a pop-up windows that says:
This server version is not supported. You must have SQL Server 2005 or later.
Now, I've confirmed that the server I'm trying to connect to has Microsoft SQL Server 2000 installed on it.
I know that some people got that pop-up window when trying to use Microsoft SQL Server 2008. It was apparently a Visual Studio issue.
I just want to confirm that this message that I'm getting is legit. (It would seem right, seeing, as I
mentionned earlier, I have Microsoft SQL Server 2000 installed. ) For some reason, I still
think it's weird that I'm getting this message. I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 by the way. Can anybody confirm this.
I do not think that this issue is related to DevExpress control. It is common issue with visual studio when you SQL Server that Visual studio IDE does not support or missing SQL Server Data Objects.
I suggest you to check below link for your confirmation that SQL Server is not supported in newer IDE directly.
This server version is not supported. You must have Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Beta 2 or later.
SQL Server 2000 and Visual Studio 2010
This Server Version is not supported. You must have SQL 2005 or later (VS2010 Problem)
Some how you can use quick fix to connect with the data base and write code to do other operations.
Connecting SQL server 2000 using Visual Studio 2012
.NET Framework Data Provder for OLE DB -> Microsoft OLE DB Provider
Hope this help you understand the real issue behind this.
I'd like to put a table form oracle on my sharepoint 2010 (and soon to be updated 2013) site so that the table can be updated and new rows can be inserted. After googling using BCS seems to be the only option. Is this correct? the Sharepoint designer will not work with Oracle?
Also when I open Visual Studio 2012 Professional and click on new project>>Sharepoint>>Sharepoint 2010 Project I get an error saying
Sharepoint server must be installed to workwith share point projects.
Do I need to install sharepoint server on my machine?
Can anyone provide any documentation on how to do this? what happens when I go to Sharepoint 2013?
Oh yea and I have windows 7. Will sharepoint server work on windows 7?
Thank you!
I'll try to answer all your questions.
Oracle connectivity
BCS supports Oracle but it's not trivial. Sharepoint designer is a tool where you can create External Types (BCS types). But with Sharepoint Designer you are limited to SQL Server, WCF Services and .NET assemblies. There are few workarounds:
Create linked server to oracle in SQL Serve Management Studio and use Sharepoint Designer to create BCSentities
You can create service for fetching oracle data and use Sharepoint designer to create BCS entities
If you just want to display some data from oracle and have developer knowledge. You can use ODAC for .NET and create webparts for displaying data (the simplest solution of all).
For Sharepoint 2010 Development you have to install sharepoint (foundation or server) on copmuter where your VS resides. Sharepoint foundation could be installed on Windows 7 x64. Installation is trivial download sharepoint foundation and run installation file.
For Sharepoint 2013. You can create apps and client apps on remote computer but for farm solutions there is the same rule (but SP 2013 can't be installed on Windows 7).
Does SubSonic support SQL Server 2008 R2?
Regards
Sundar
I can't answer for SubSonic 3.x, but can tell you that 2.x will support both SQL Server 2008 and 2008 R2 providing that your database doesn't use any of the new 2008 data types (date, time, etc)
Yes. I'm using SubSonic 3.0 with ActiveRecord T4 templates right now, and they are awesome.
I'm almost positive that it does. Also see here: SubSonic with MS SQL 2008?
