| Hi allI have a problem with reporting services (MSSQL Server 2005 SP2). The (input) fields for the defined report parameters will be created (automatically) in a list with two rows, but the field length is too short. Is it possible to specify the field length?I hope, you understand. If not, I have a screenshut.Thanks for your help. Manfred |

| How do you mean the field length will be to short , have you set the parameter through the report parameter or just through declaring the parameter in your datasetLookin the menu, report then click on Report Parameters there are only option for ' string, bootlean, datetime, float, integer'so it's not limited in length |

| Hi, thanks for your answer.Yes, I defined the Report Parameters with these options as you described. The input isn't limited, that's right.What I mean is: The field length ist about 5cm (2 inch), but the strings are between 50 and 100 characters.So I have to scroll every time. I mean, the control box should be longer, that I see more characters without scrolling.With default settings, the "Report Parameters" are shown in a grid of two rows and with default length (for all controls the same length). I should define the length individual for several controls.Thanks, Manfred. |
