Is there a trick to passing a multivalued parameter to a stored procedure? It has been a while since I have had to do this and I cannot remember. Is this something that I need to do in reporting services passing the string, or is it configured in the T-SQL?
Thanks for the information.
This is the SQL Query here:
SELECT NoteID, Time_Stamp, NoteDate, Line, Shift, OperatorNote
FROM tblOperatorNotes
WHERE (NoteDate >= @startDate) AND (NoteDate <= @enddate) and (Shift=@shift)
and Line in (@line)
order by Line

I've never had much luck in passing multi valued params to a stored procedure and in those cases I've just pulled the query back into the RDL instead of having it references a sproc.

I tried a number of string manipulations trying to add single quotes, commas etc And parse them out in the beginning of the stored procedure but eventually decided to just keep the query in the report.

Thanks for the reponse! I decided to do the same thing 🙂 Just keep it in the report itself.

See the following... it's a long article, but it's worth it.

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
