Hoe to get Encrypted Password value varbinary field

I just converted from SQL 7 to SQL 2000 but have one issue.
My login table contains a password field that is a varbinary type. I
encrypted the value by using the encrypt('password') when inserting users
into this table.
How can I see the actual value of the password field. Is there a way to
decrypt?
For some reason, all the users passwords don't work. If I redo each one, it
works but there are too many to redo manually."yodakt" <dev1on11@.gmail.com> wrote in message

Try this:
SELECT CAST(myPassword AS NVARCHAR(100))
FROM myTable
Where myPassword is the VARBINARY column containing the passwords.

Hiding sub Reports after deployment

Hi All,
I have two reports and each of them contains 3 sub reports. When I deployed
my project, I don't want the users to see the sub reports. I have set Hide in
list view = Checked for each of the sub report. After doing this when the
users access the reports folder, they do not see the reports until they click
on the Show details, where they again see all the reports. How should I set
this up? Please help!

As far as I know, it does not seem feasible. You might want to create
a custom application that controls the access to the subreports. Sorry
I could not be of greater assistance.

Hiding Field if Data is Null

I'm simulating a mailing label-type format that contains mailing
address information:
Name
Title
Company
Address
Address2
City, State Zip
Since not all customers have an address2 line, I want to suppress the
Address2 field if it is null. This way, I don't have a blank line:
Jason Sweet
3154 Alaca Drive
Altadena, CA 91001
Possible?
Thanks in advance.
Jason SweetHi Jason,
I guess you can use the IIF function to set the height of the two text
boxes. something like =IIF(Address2 = "",0,20)

Did you ever find out how to supress the null lines in an address?
I've tried the following IFF in the Visiblity Hidden Property:
=iif( Fields!D_ADDRESS_LINE_2.Value = "", true, false)
I've tried the following IFF in the Line Height Property:
=iif( Fields!D_ADDRESS_LINE_2.Value = "",0,2)
Neither accomplish the task. Write soon!

=(Fields!A.Value is Nothing)
=IsNothing(Fields!A.Value)
When using these expressions for the Visibility.Hidden property you should
get the desired effect.

1. I used the IFF to set the condition of the Hidden Property of the
Visibility element.
2. If you want just the field to be "Hidden" or blanked out while
maintaining the vertical spacing by not suppressing the entire line, click
the *field*...
3. If you want the entire line to be supressed, click the line tab off to
the left of the table.
4. To set the property, go to the Visibility element and expand it to find
the Hidden Property. Click <expression> and enter the following IFF
statement:
=iif( Fields!D_ADDRESS_LINE_2.Value = "", true, false) <-- substitute your
field name. This till set the Hidden property to True if the field is Null
or False if the field contains a value.
This should work to either suppress or blank either the field or the entire
line.

What I do is check if address 2 exists and if it does then print it.
If not then I substitute Address 2 with the city state and zip.
Same with the CSZ line.
I hope this works for you.

Hiding a subreport - How to suppress the blank line ?

Hi, I have a main report with several subreports in a list. If I hide a subreport that contains no data by using the "visibility" attribute, there s always a blank line left in the list. Is there any way to suppress that blank line?

Minimize the size(width and height) of the sub report to the maximum extent.

sincerely,

Amde

Hi,

I have the same problem. I am using a sub report with a table. Even, if I reduce the height to maximum extent, it still adds up and creates blank space. Is there any other way?

Can I suppress a single cell of the table if it is blank?

Thanks in advance !!!

|||Thanks, I tried that before, but that doesn′t solve my problem.
Even when I minimize the height of the line in the main report or the sub report itself, there′s still a noticable blank line. In my case, I′ve got like 6 or more sub reports in that table and even minimized there′s too much blank space if more than one sub reports are hidden.
Isn′t there any way to completley hide the line, where the sub report would have been?
|||Common guys, any "Pro" out there has got to know how to do that?!
Or is it just impossible?
I postet on several forums and a lot of people have this problem, too, but noone seems to have a solution for this.
|||

hi nic

Create an Empty Row in yout table.

Embed the sub-report in this table row.

Hide the table row when theres no data in your subreport.

And it will hide the extra space

|||

Hi,

Right click on the field and go to expression.

In expression type the below

=IIF(Field!FieldName="",true,false)

Regards,

Prashant

What is the actual expression to "Hide the table row when theres no data in your subreport" ?

Thanks,

Pete

Hiding a Subreport

Hi, Folks.
I have a "List" report which contains a "Table"-style subreport.
I'd like to display the table, WITH the headers, as the subreport ONLY IF
there are some elements to be displayed within the table. In many cases,
there will be no data in the subreport. I'd like to suppress the entire
subreport if there are no rows in the table.
Alternatively, I'd be happy to simply suppress/hide the table header row
when the number of rows returned is zero. I have a field in the table
header called "NumKey", which is the Count(KeyValue). If no records, then
the table should be hidden; if there are one or more records, all the
records AND the table leader should be displayed.
Alas, there doesn't seem to be anyplace that I can access the "Visible"
property for the entire subreport from within the subreport itself, and
there's no place within the table header that allows me to change the
"Visible" propery of the header row based on the "NumKey" text box.
This ought to be possible. What am I missing?
Thanks.

"Those of us who DO remember our history are condemned to live
watching others around us trying to repeat it. "
---Two options:
1. Set the visible property on the table and use Count(KeyValue) in the
expression for this property.
2. Set the NoRows property on the table, so the NoRows text will be shown
instead of the table when there is no data.
