I have created a list using "Custom List in Data Sheet View". After that I created around 10 columns in that list. Problem is only for one column, it is showing as read only, rest all are working fine!! Hence I cannot insert a row in the list(Data sheet view).
How can I remove that read only attribute from the column?
One more related question is, how to make the list editable to only one group and read only to other groups?
Thank you, for your valuable inputs!!
Please refer this question... Once I delete and re created the column, the read only option has gone. Also given separate permission for the user after stopping the security inheritance from parent option in the list's permission.
I had the same problem with two columns in a list. I discovered the "Type of Text to Allow" for both columns were set to "Enhanced Rich Text". Changing the "Type of Text to Allow" for the column to only "Rich Text" solved the problem for both columns.

I am trying to filter a Sharepoint list and show only those rows to logged in user if the Person/Group column (with Allow Multiple set to True) has the logged in user's name.
I tried to filter using the contains option but receiving below error. Can someone suggest how this can be resolved?
Try the filter setting for "is equal to" and [Me]. I found that this works fine in people fields that have multiple people selected.
'Contains' filter can only for searching a string anywhere within a column that holds Text or Note field type values. I think it cannot be used for user/group column.

You may consider using below filter:
Includes
Eq

I am using tablix and group my entries by one of the properties. I have some trouble with SSRS when exporting my report to Excel. The very first row of each group is added to the end of its group.
This only(!) happens when exporting the report to Excel, exporting to any other format will leave my table the way it should be:
Thank you for your help!
I see that this is an old question but I have the same problem and I've been able to solve it just changing the Visibility property of the different tablix components.
In my case I have this.
Row Visibility: "Hide" and also set "Can be toogle by" with the parent group.
Group Visibility: "Show".
Each textbox of the detail row Visibility: "Show".
It looks like it is not removing dupes for you in the grouping that repeat. Are you doing a regular grouping with property or a function? There are two solutions for this:
Ensure your dataset is having distinct values (even if you think you are certain). If this is standard 'select' statement to a SQL Server just add Select 'Distinct' and your values.
I would try maybe making the properties in the table that are in the lowest level, shown as '[Details]' generally in the design section under 'Row Groups'. Change the properties to be something like:
[Max(propertyb)] and [Max(propertyc)]
This is not needed generally as the grouping should be taking care of this. But in cases where it is not it is an extra level of logic may fix the issue. You also need to be aware depending on your grouping logic that if it is not grouping properly you may get the same result for that many rows. This would not be as advised as it is more of a hack to get what you want, not an elegant solution.
One or more field types are not installed properly.
Go to the list settings page to delete these fields
I got the above error while adding item to list, I Don't have any lookup Column and I also deleted relationship list.
Kindly Help....!
Thanks in advance.
Seems you are adding the item by code. Just verify the column name spelled properly or not.
When ever Events are Handled.most of them used to give column name as it is there in list/library. But I recommend before providing the column make sure that column Name and its internal Name is same.
You can get Column internal Name by using SharePoint Manager Tool
In short:
I'm trying to filter an XSLTListViewWebPart based on what is selected in another XSLTListViewWebPart. Using a String field as connection this is working fine. Using a hyperlink field no data is displayed.
In more detail:
I have two lists, say Accounts and Projects. Both have a hyperlink field accountURL.
All accounts have different accountURLs. Different projects can have the same value for accountURL. Both are displayed on a page using the XSLTListViewWebPart.
The simple goal is to filter the Projects list based on which item is selected in the Accounts list using the accountURL field. So I established a web part connection using the acountURL as a filter. Alas, when an item in the Accounts list is selected no items are showwn in the Projects list although I double checked that there are matching values.
When using a string field instead of a hyperlink field for accountURL everything works like a charm. Problem is, I need the hyperlink field.
Is this desired behaviour? Do you have any suggestions for a workaround?
(I already tried converting the hyperlink field to a string field via a calculated column which did not work out either.)
All was and is to be done in the web interface or SP-Designer. Coding a WSP is not an option for this problem. As I'm not quite familiar with the correct terminus technicus I use field and column interchangeably.
All help is greatly appreciated.

Someone on the Microsoft forum suggested the following workaround which does its job well:
Add a hidden text column to both lists.
Use a workflow which is triggered on item creation and update to copy the value of the hyperlink column to the hidden text column.
Connect both webparts using the hidden column as filter.
Nonetheless, I still wonder whether it is possible to use hyperlink columns or other special columns for filtering. I also had the problem that I cannot use a person column as lookup.
Does anyone know if whether there ist some kind of overview
which column types can be used for filtering/formulas/lookup/...?
Cheers,

I have a Person field in my custom list. I want to have a view that will show multiple fields from that Person instead of the one I had to choose when creating the Person column.
So basically I want to have one column for Person and then in the view see Name, title, email, phone. All of those are valid choices but I can only pick one right now.
I really want to avoid typing in the username lookup for each column I choose to display.
This is SP 2007
It sounds like you need to create a custom fieldtype (with a fieldcontrol) that inherits from the userfield but in viewmode renders out the different columns you need. Is that something along the lines you are looking for?

Note: This link is broken
You probably want a Computed Field. Note that this is not a Calculated Column. A Computed Field is what is used to display the same data is different ways. In SharePoint there is a Title field, but there is also a "Title (linked to item with edit menu)" computed field as well as a "Title (linked to item)" computed field.
See midway down this link for more details. I'm not sure if it will have all of the power that you need, but if it does it is almost certainly what you are looking for if you don't mind getting into the Schema XML file a little.
Could you use a DataView web part for this? If it's just a question of viewing the data that might be suitable.
Came across this thread and thought I'd add a tip. This suggestion is clearly not for every use case, but may work well in situations where you're managing a list rather than allowing manual inputs (verified to work with SP 2013):
Create a spreadsheet with columns to match your SharePoint list that contains multiple profile fields. (for example: name, phone number, email address)
In the spreadsheet, enter the same email address in all of the person/group field types in that row. (e.g., boss#company.com, boss#company.com, boss#company.com)
Select and copy the row(s) you wish to transfer to SharePoint.
In SharePoint, change the list view to "Quick Edit" and paste the row(s) into the grid.
SharePoint will process each field and convert the email address to the profile value you selected during the list setup.
