Query to help create RDL

Usually, I would use the SSRS wizard to quickly create my table with all my fields. In this case I have to add more fields onto an existing report that has my custom formatting of each column (eg. showing/hiding columns).

So for a quick solution, I developed this ad hoc query that I can then use to pull the fields I would need to add from a view into the report. This ends up being a lot of copy & paste actions into the xml (view code) of the rdl.

 
CREATE PROCEDURE [hrr].[usp_RDL_ColumnField_XML]

(

       @view varchar(50)

)

BEGIN

       -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from

       -- interfering with SELECT statements.

       SET NOCOUNT ON;

 

       --DECLARE @view varchar(50)

       --SET @view = 'V_EVALUATIONS'
