SSRS total pages number error. (Adds a Question mark(?) after total page number in SSRS report)

Paging Issue in SSRS Report adds a question mark instead of display the total number of pages In this blog i am going to give the solution how to solve this problem. Generally the problem could be like below: Suppose we have one report deployed on ssrs 2008, it shows on view report 1 of 2? or 2 of 3? and so on... as shown below in image. So if you can see the screenshot there is a question mark after 3(Encircled in red) .we have a total of 50 pages in the report but instead of displaying the last page it is showing a question mark and we cannot show question mark as it was client request. When press to show next page, it shows 2 of 3?, after 3 of 4?. And in that mode till the end of the report. So, we could easily solve this error. Just place a textbox in footer or header and goto the Expression of that textbox. Now goto Built-In Fileds and select OverallTotalPages(or type in query box:: =Globals!OverallTotalPages) i.e. Place Textbox in Header/ Footer-> Goto Exp

StateCode and StatusCode Values for mostly used entities in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013

In this blog I have given a list of all StateCode and StatusCode of useful entities. Please refer MSDN for more details for any doubt if you have regarding any thing. I also have collected this through MSDN The following table shows default Microsoft CRM values for StateCode and StatusCode. Each StateCode has its own default StatusCode value. For example, if a Product StateCode is 0 (Active), the default StatusCode is 1 (Active(default)). If the Product StateCode is 1 (InActive), the default StatusCode is 2 (Inactive(default)). Microsoft CRM only accepts StatusCodes that are valid for a particular StateCode. Entity Status (statecode) Status Reason (statuscode) Account (account) 0 Active 1 Active 1 Inactive 2 Inactive Activity (activitypointer) 0 Open 1 Open 1 Completed 2 Completed 2 Canceled 3 Canceled 3 Scheduled
