Bulk extract/export BLOB data?

Is there a tool (like Bulk Image Insert (bii.exe) from sql resource
kit) that will bulk BLOB export data?
MortenTextcopy.exe might be what you need.

Built in report tool returns dollar symbol not pound symbol.

I can't be the only one to of noticed this but my local setting are all set to United Kingdom, but when using the in built reporting tool I always get dollar symbols.
The command I used to format the text box was the formatcurrency() express which states it will format the text in accordance with the settings in control panel. The only thing I can think of is that it is either using a system default setting (were on a domain with roaming profiles) or it uses the language as set on the SQL server (which I haven't checked yet).

Anyone else noticed this odd behavior or know where you type the expression pattern to make a custom currency format for UK?

I use a custom format entered in the Format code: box

£#,##0.00

|||Yeah thats, the method I used in the end. Shame the formatcurrency() function doesn't do what it should out of the box.
Thank you. |||

Yep, I'd be interested to know why we can't default to local currency settings as with say Office programs...

Let me know if you find out :)

|||Yes, would be useful. I might google once I have some spare time. Just hope one of the developers of that section who might know passes over this.|||

You may want to read this: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156493.aspx

The Report has a Language property which could be set to a static value, such as en-UK. Or you could set it to the current user's language by using an expression: =User!Language. Note: you can also override the report's language on individual textboxes by explicitly setting the textbox.Language property.

|||I can confirm that setting the language of the report does in fact fix the local symbol's. I never noticed this property as it is tucked away. To get to it you have to select it from the drop down menu in properties ( http://www.devstuff.eu/images/stories/msdn/ReportSelecter.JPG ). Then you can set report wide settings.

Interesting points about this :
Text boxes local settings does not override form default.|||Thanks guys.

Build reports using Report Designer using Models

Once a Model is created, is ther query builder the only tool that can be used
to create a report from the Model or can we use Report Designer to build
reports off a Model?
Thanks in advance!I guess I should have clarified I am work with the 2005 Beta version of
Reporting Services. If anyone has any idea, please let me know.
Thanks!
