Build a T-SQL Calendar using SQL Function GetFullMonth on MS SQL Server

SQL Server t-sql developers or administrators can use the below user defined function in order to list the calendar dates within a month.
We can pass the date as a parameter to the t-sql calendar date function and list the sql dates which belongs to the month of the given parameter date value.
You can alter the following t-sql function code as you wish in order to your requirements. For example, you can only pass the month.
You can further alter the function to pass two date parameter values and list the calendar dates within the given sql date range instead of listing only dates in a given month. For this t-sql task you can use the dbo.DateTable function which is demonstrated at How to Create a Date Table or a SQL Server Calendar Table using CTE T-SQL Code titled article.
CREATE FUNCTION GetFullMonth
(
@d datetime
) RETURNS @days TABLE
(
[date] datetime,
[days] varchar(20)
)
BEGIN

DECLARE @d1 datetime, @d2 datetime, @d3 datetime

SELECT
@d1 = DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm, 0, @d), 0),
@d2 = DATEADD(dd, -1, DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm, 0, @d) + 1, 0))

WHILE @d1 <= @d2
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @days SELECT @d1, DATENAME(DW, @d1)
SELECT @d1 = DATEADD(dd, 1, @d1)
END

RETURN

END
And the output of the dbo.GetFullMonth function can be seen with a sample t-sql SELECT statement as follows:
SELECT * FROM dbo.GetFullMonth('20080229')

Using SSRS web services to render a report as a PDF

I have been looking around the net for some decent code which would explain how I could render a report, using SSRS 2008 web services as a PDF.   The need was to extract reports sitting on a SSRS 2008 server sitting on a NT domain on a trusted network, whereas my web server was sitting in a DMZ. Where the only communication allowed by the network admin was port 80. To do this you will need to use the SSRS2008   ReportExecution2005.asmx web service. This could be accesses using the following URL assuming your SSRS server was installed using the default settings. http://YourServerIP/reportserver/reportexecution2005.asmx?wsdl 1.        Create a user on your AD domain with the least amount of privileges (say ReportUser) 2.        Give this account browse access on the reporting server for the desired reports. 3.        To get this working in visual studio 2010 (I am using the Premium edition)   Right click on your project and add a service reference to the above web serv

How to Query SQL server for T-SQL Calendar using GetFullMonth using Pivot

After listing sql calendar date values in a month as rows, we need to display them now in a format similar to frequently used in printed calendars. The day names are listed as column names and dates are shown under the related columns. The first solution is supplied by Plamen Ratchev from SQLStudio.com using the t-sql PIVOT. Since I liked the t-sql code he coded much I want to share it with you here. SELECT [Sunday], [Monday], [Tuesday], [Wednesday], [Thursday], [Friday], [Saturday] FROM ( SELECT DATEPART(WEEK, [date]) AS week_number, [date], [days] FROM dbo.getFullmonth('20080229') ) AS Dates PIVOT ( MIN([date]) FOR [days] IN ( [Sunday], [Monday], [Tuesday], [Wednesday], [Thursday], [Friday], [Saturday] ) ) AS Pivots And the output of this sql pivot statement will return the following result set as output which is displaying sql dates in a calendar format.
