Multi-Value Parameter Width

Good afternoon,

I've designed a Reporting Services report that has a multi-value parameter. The report works just great. The only issue I'm running into is that the users are complaining that when they want to select the values, within the multi-value parameter box, they have to scroll it to the sides way too much. This also makes them select values by mistake.

Is there away to inscrease the width of the multi-value parameter box?

Best regards.

I guess you can do that by changing the stylesheet provided for controlling the layout and style of report manager. If your clients are using report manager, then read on:

There is a file called ReportingServices.css in Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.X\Reporting Services\ReportManager\Styles.

Edit that in notepad and locate a class called "msrs-multiValueDropDown" and in that class add width property as follows and save the file:

.msrs-multiValueDropDown

{

border: 1px DarkGray solid;

width: 200px;

}

That could work, yes. I'll sure try it tomorrow when I get to work.

My only problem with that approach is that it's an horizontal change. All reports will be affected unless theres a way to tell that report, or parameter, to use a specific sheet or value from the default sheet.|||

No, it cannot be done on a report by report basis.

So, can you please mark my post as answer?
