Default value to be populated in the report

  • I have a MSRS report which takes some parameter values to populate the report. The parameters are drop down controls which have multi select option enabled to have multiple values as a filter criteria. The parameter should have a default value pre-populated when the report 1st loads.

    The problem is to have that default value as ‘Select All’, which automatically comes when we have a multi select option enabled. i.e. the 'Select All (as a word thats provided by MSRS tool) should be displayed on the report UI and also all the values in the drop down should be checked too.

    How can I set this ‘Select All’ as a default value for the parameters?

    Any suggestions??

  • Hello,

    We have not found a way of doing that either, so we currently use a workaround similar to the one described here: http://www.themssforum.com/SVCS/MultiSelect-parameter-79674/

  • In that case i will 2 options to choose all the values. One that i will insert explicitly and one provided by the reporting tool.

    Is there any way to have just one of the values.?

    Please suggest

  • Hello Again,

    Sorry, but as far as we know the built in "Select All" cannot be turned off. Please see this thread: https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=249227

    (I must give credit to Andreas Gonsior for his help).
