Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2008 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2008 fix release.
Symptoms
Consider the following scenario:
-
You have a Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services report that contains a Tablix control.
-
You nest at least two adjacent row groups and a parent row group in the control.
-
You nest a column group in the control.
-
You set the values for the cells of the child row group and of the column group.
-
You render the report.
In this scenario, only the cell of the last child row group and of the last column group display a value, and the adjacent child row groups display empty cells.
