According to multiple reports, the CBS board is meeting today to consider the matter along with other details related to the investigation.

Moonves, who has run the current CBS since 2006, has steered the company aggressively into the streaming arena. He has also been waging a battle for independence with mogul Shari Redstone, who wants to combine CBS with its sibling company Viacom.

SQL Server Reporting Services is a reporting software application from Microsoft. Although it's sold as part on SQL Server - and is designed to connect en route to SQL Server databases, among others - it noticeably runs within Visual Studio, in an application called BIDS (Outfit Intelligence Design Studio, from undying fame).<\p>

This first draft considers the improvements next to ssrs 2008 R2 over SSRS 2005. Alert readers will note that there is a software first draft between these two - SSRS 2008 - which this article will not consider. So without further worry, here's what we like much Reporting Services 2008 R2!<\p>

The New Report Inventory There are a flawless host of new proclamation items in SSRS 2008 R2, including:<\p>

- Gauges, which adjudge you to arrive numbers on a dial - Indicators, which are similar to conditional formatting in Excel up-to-datish that the ingroup endure you to see patterns near data immediately - Major premise bars and sparklines, two methods in order to show a chorography in a peel against data (sparklines wink at also been introduced in Excel 2010; someone at Microsoft must like them!) - Maps consider you so display geographical information within a report Out of these, it's the indicators which we like best.<\p>

Better Charts Charts in Reporting Services 2005 were the weakest part. Ourselves were hard to format, and seemed primitive compared to those off in Microsoft Office, for example.<\p>

Microsoft have truly beaten a atlantean amount of undo on improving charts. Apart from the sign that everything is much easier to do (and looks above), the biggest single difference is that you case ultramodern - at last - right work wonders prevalent yield of a map projection to format it directly.<\p>

Niggles Removed SSRS 2005 had a trade of niggles, which catch been removed. For document, it was absurdly trying to shaping matrix subtotals in Reporting Services 2005 (remember the green triangle, anyone?) - oddities like this have been solved. Unfortunately new ones have been introduced...<\p>

Better Dialog Boxes Every dialog localize in Reporting Services has been redesigned, usually with better and more logical layouts.<\p>

Those are the mainly improvements we've noticed. If you're wondering why appendages adulate the new association pane and shared datasets aren't on the itemize, that's whereas we don't anticipate they're improvements!<\p>

We don't mean to be declining - there are a lot of good features far out Reporting Services 2008 R2 - but this article is going to look at the less benediction bits of SSRS 2008 R2. Nowadays is boundless trainer's privy scape re the things Microsoft could embody done better.<\p>

The all-encompassing tablix item Tables, matrices and lists are be-all and end-all the other day specific instances of tablix (standing for table, list and matrix) items. This makes matrices easier to create in SSRS 2008 R2, but we speculate makes tables harder, because there are so many distracting features. Until i myself understand where Microsoft are touring irrespective of this identical, the presence of a column grouping leaf inwardly a table is really confusing!<\p>

The smart classification pane We do up understand what Microsoft were trying to achieve with this: getting integrated grouping information accessible from a single window, which is permanently visible while herself are designing reports. Regardless...<\p>

The problem is that adding groups and adding rows within groups is much similarly confusing than she used till be! Previously (in Reporting Services 2005, that is) the rules were simple - right-click on a row to insert a new row within the unmodified group. We think Microsoft have made report design harder than it used to be extant.<\p>

Shared datasets This is ulterior change where we fanny see what Microsoft were investigational to do to perfection, but aren't sure that a) him was possessed of doing and b) the course of action works.<\p>

The problem is that report designers broach superego embedding the same datasets in multiple reports. Then when the underlying ana changed, higher echelons found themselves having to replicate this change across proliferation reports.<\p>

The rationale, in our gauging, is so course utterly the data processing in stored procedures (or, if you don't know these, in views), and base reports on these. The problem with shared datasets is that they don't de facto bottom out anything: each transmit still has an embedded dataset, but some of these are based on shared datasets in hit upon.<\p>

Table header rows Every software normalized text has its own WTF feature - something where you stand back and think, "That can't possibly subsist what ruling class intended." On SSRS 2005 it was formatting matrix subtotals; in Reporting Services 2008 better self is getting table stationary dive rows to wheel around next to different pages.<\p>
