• SQL Server default parameter values not updated

  For testing purposes, I had placed default values in my report parameters. I deployed the whole suite of reports once and tested them. Then I eliminated the default parameters and redeployed, but the server doesn't pick up the changes. Other changes are updated fine, but for some reason it's hanging on to my default parameter values Why Is there a way around this Using RS 2000 Beta 2, btw. I came across the same thing in Reporting Services 2005. However, you can change the parameters using the Report Manager. http://<servername>/Reports Click "Show Details" Click the properties icon in the "Edit" col ...Show All

Are you checking the InvokeRequired flag before making any calls to Invoke or BeginInvoke If you're using VS 2005, try this: Set the static property Control .CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = true ; In the Debug menu -> Exceptions, Check the box to Break when a Common Language Runtime Exception is thrown.

  When creating a Reporting Services report and declaring local variables as part of your query in a dataset there is sometimes a problem. When you hit run in the Data section and the “Define Query Parameters” box pops up, all the variables are not there. Sometimes when you go to properties (…) of that dataset the parameters are gone.
