Pagination in SSRS 2000

Hi,

I am newbie to SSRS and am currently using RS 2000.

What i came across while developing reports is :

Reports when rendered in Web-format were split in a number of pages if the number of rows in the table used for displaying were more than could be contained in a single page's height.

However, in the Layout section when i gave some (any) expression for the visibility of the table depending on some condition this paging got disabled, i.e. the entire report started coming in one page irrespective of how many ever rows were displayed. They all started getting displayed in a single page with a vertical scroll.

I do not understand what has the table's visibility expression got to do with displaying report in a single page or multiple.

Please comment

Unfortunately, since RS (2000 and 2005) doesn't support conditional page breaks any conditional expression supresses the page breaks as well. Conditional page breaks are on the wish list for the next release.|||

But here i was not giving any conditional page breaks.

Do you mean to say that conditional visibility expression of the Table object suppressed the default page breaks?

Has anyone else come across this?

|||Yes, I know that it doesn't make much sense but this is exactly what's happening.

pages split

Hi friends,
We have read only DB (no modifications) on sql2k5(sp2) and when running Perf
Monitor we see spikes of pages split counter, sometimes up to 100 or even
higher. I just wonder what might contribute to that behavior? There is one
stored proc where temp table is created, populated and then clustered index
is created on it. But once index is created no more modifications on temp
table are done.
I'd appreciate any input.
Thanks a lot in advanceHi
What is FILLFACTOR you specify when create an index?Consider increasing the
fill factor of your indexes.

I am curious about this because I would hope that the engine just stuffs
each page 100% full (assuming that is FF default) with no splitting at all
during creation. And since the OP stated there wasn't any further
modification to the table there should be no splitting after index creation
either.

pages split

Hi friends,
We have read only DB (no modifications) on sql2k5(sp2) and when running Perf
Monitor we see spikes of pages split counter, sometimes up to 100 or even
higher. I just wonder what might contribute to that behavior? There is one
stored proc where temp table is created, populated and then clustered index
is created on it. But once index is created no more modifications on temp
table are done.
I'd appreciate any input.
Thanks a lot in advance
Hi

Page SPlits and finding out Record size and Page Info

I am trying to determine if pages in a table are close to full and likely to
page split.
Using DBCC SHOWCONTIG ( table) WITH TABLERESULTS, ALL_INDEXES, ALL_LEVELS
I get MinimumRecordSize, MaximumRecordSize only for the indexes How can I
get this information on the data itself? If an update is going to change a
the average record size by increasing it 15 bytes, and the avg is 500 bytes,
I would assume that there are on average 8 records per page and the increase
would push one record out, or 1 in 8, so a 25 million record table would
encounter 3,125,000 page splits. With a clustered index, I believe we have
been experiencing some bad performance issues and turning off clustering on
the index and adjusting the free space per page, hopefully will help with
the updates.
Is there anyway to reorganize the data so that it is only using say 60% of
the file pages so that updates are less likely to page split?I may have fired too soon.
My response refers to Index Organization. Not data itself.
Cheers,
GAJ
