Culture settings of SSRS2005

Hi,
I have have a problem with the culture settings in reporting server 2005,
which is different from 2000.
My windows is in german, but I installed the english version of SSRS and
VS.NET.
So the report viewer is displayed in English.
I have a public report parameter defined as date, with default value as
Date.Now(), shown in English Format.
If I view the report with the default values, he complains that he can't
convert the date, he wants the german format.
My question now:
- Why he fills the default value in English, but for working he needs the
german format? It's seems like there are different cultures. With SSRS 2000
this was different.
- How defines SSRS2005 the used culture for formatting and UI?
By Browser? Report cutlure settings? Windows Culture?
Is there any documentation?
Thanks
EricHi Eric,
Thank you for posting.
Regarding on the culture setting question you mentioned, based on my
understanding, the ReportViewer control is shipped with the VS 2005
development tool , so the UI on the reportviewer is not related to the SQL
Server reporting service. As for SQL Server 2005 reporting service, there
does exists globalization/localizaiton features which depend on the host
machine's locale/language setting and the client-side browser's language
setting. For detailed info, you can have a look at the following MSDN
document:
