Retrieve Columns not working

Hello,

I have added a new sqlconnection to my designer. And then I added a new Data Source that uses this connection. I set the connection name, alias and the query text to a simple valid sql string. After this when I click on Retrieve Columns the screen flickers for a second but no columns are retrieved. When I add a valid column by hand the report successfully displays its values.

Could you please let me know what I am missing?

best regards

Hello.

A question about that SQL query. Is there a stored procedure in your query? Does it use temporary tables/variable number of columns?

Thank you.

No, the query is SELECT * FROM AIRLINE where AIRLINE is a table with 8 simple columns.

Hello.

Please let us know the type of the Connection in Web Designer and name of the server you connected to.

Thank you.

The type of connection is SQL Connection and the name of the server is the IP address of our internal SQL 2005 Server.

I can see that it tries to retrieve the columns because a progress bar comes up and then no error comes up and no columns are retrieved in the end.

Hello Spencer.

Could you please send the script for creating of that table to support[at]stimulsoft.com. We checked 'Retrieving Columns' button and all worked as expected...

Thank you.

Hello the script for the table is this:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AIRLINE](
[AIRLINE_ID] [char](3) COLLATE Turkish_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[NAME] [varchar](50) COLLATE Turkish_CI_AS NOT NULL,

Code: Select all

 [char](3) COLLATE Turkish_CI_AS NOT NULL,
	[COMPANY_URL] [varchar](255) COLLATE Turkish_CI_AS NOT NULL,
	[PARSER_BASE_URL] [varchar](255) COLLATE Turkish_CI_AS NOT NULL,
	[RESULTS_URL] [varchar](255) COLLATE Turkish_CI_AS NULL,
	[TABLE_SEARCH_REGEXP] [varchar](20) COLLATE Turkish_CI_AS NULL,
	[EXTRA_TAX] [numeric](18, 2) NULL,
	[BATCH_SIZE] [int] NOT NULL,
	[PACKAGE_GUID] [varchar](50) COLLATE Turkish_CI_AS NULL,
	[IS_ACTIVE] [bit] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_AIRLINE_IS_ACTIVE]  DEFAULT ((1)),
	[DATE_FORMAT_CODE] [tinyint] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_AIRLINE_DATE_FORMAT_CODE]  DEFAULT ((112)),
 CONSTRAINT [PK_AIRLINE] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 
(
	[AIRLINE_ID] ASC
)WITH (IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]

It is on an sql 2005 database with TURKISH_CI_AS as its collation. Would this info be sufficient?
