Customizing Report Parameters in SQL Server
Customizing report parameters
When you start to add parameters to your report you can actually have multiple parameters and they will all show up in this parameter area at the top. But most of the time you want something more than just an open text box to type into, and we can change the appearance of this based on the parameter definition in our Report Builder. Now, if you added the parameter through the Query Designer, it will automatically show up in that section, but you can also create your own parameters. I can see here that if I right-click on the folder we can actually choose to add a new parameter, give it a name, set its values.
But I don't need to do that right now. Either way, when I have a parameter, I can actually double-click it in the Report Data section and I'll open up the Property pages for this parameter. For example, it's telling me this is ProductCategoryID. It's a data type of an integer. I have options here to change it to a Date/Time. If I changed it to that, we'd see it show up as a date picker in that top section of the report. If I selected Boolean, it would show up as a checkbox in that top section. But it actually is an integer. It is a numeric value. I just don't want to look at that.
And I have other options for what actually shows up. In the Available Values section here, we've currently set it to None, which means we don't provide any values; the actual user must type them directly in. I can choose to manually specify them and create different values for both the label--meaning what the user will actually--see and the value--what will actually be represented behind the scenes. What's even better is this option, that I could get values from a query. I could create another query and get all the category names and all the category IDs from a different part of the database.
In fact, that's what I'm going to do. I don't have that data set right now, so what I am first going to do is cancel out of this and add a new dataset to this report. So I'll right-click my Dataset folder/ Add Dataset, and I want to create a new one called CategoryNamesAndNumbers. It will be embedded in the report. I can just use the same data source I already have defined. We are talking to the same database. That's just fine. Then I jump into the Query Designer. And all I need to do here is drop down into my ProductCategory table, which is right here, and all I am interested in is the number of the ProductCategoryID and the name.
That's pretty much it. To test this I can run the query, and yup, that looks about right. Click OK, click OK. That dataset is now defined, and I can use it in my parameter. So back into the parameter definition, double-click on this guy. I am going to jump over into the Available Values section and tell it to get its values from a query. It asks which dataset. Well, the one we just created, the CategoryNamesAndNumbers. And then I simply have two choices. What are the actual values you're interested in? What am I going to feed to the product table so I can filter that data? Well, that actually needs to be the number, the ProductCategoryID number.
But being more friendly to the end user, what the user sees can be the name of this category. I'm not going to go ahead and change the default values. If I clicked here, it says specify values as 35. That's because I defined in the dataset. That's fine. I will just leave it alone. In the Advanced section are some options for, do I always refresh automatically when this value is changed? I'm going to leave all of that as is and just click OK. It doesn't look any different here. Well, that's not surprising. I can just go ahead and click Run to preview this, and what I have up at the top has completely changed. We no longer have a text field to type into.
We have a dropdown list with all the friendly names of the categories here. So I can select Jerseys, click View Report to refresh that data, and see the Jerseys here. I can come down and click Mountain Bikes and either click the button to View Report or press Enter to refresh that data again. It looks like what I could do with now is starting to apply a little bit of formatting here: Product ID doesn't need to be as wide, Name could be a bit wider, and List Price should be formatted as Currency. Again, doing that kind of thing is pretty easy stuff.
When you're resizing columns, it's best to grab the gray bar at the top. If I want to change this Sum(List Price), then what I do is actually click on the text itself until it's highlighted. I can see now here the Number formatting section is showing up. Change that to Currency and run it, and that's a bit more presentable. If you want to provide parameters in your report but not always show them to the end user, that is possible to do as well. Jumping back into Design view and editing that parameter, I will see that on the first page there are some options for whether this parameter is always visible or whether it's hidden or internal.
One of the reasons you might want to do this is that you as a report designer may occasionally want to change the default value of this or the parameter of this every week or every month, but you don't want to give that option to every single user, every single person who views that report. And there are even ways to make these parameters conditionally appear depending on who's looking at it or on other data on the page. But this is how we begin to parameterize our reports.
Setting parameters in your SQL Server lets you define and share datasets by pulling out the specific data needed, helping you create a meaningful report. This can make the experience of using the Report Builder a much more user-friendly experience. Learn how to customize report parameters in this online video.

Goldsmith, 29, was the "Voice of the RoughRiders" during the 2010 and 2011 seasons, providing radio and television play-by-play for the team in addition to coordinating Frisco's media relations department. The St. Louis native spent last year in a similar capacity for the Pawtucket Red Sox, the Triple-A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox.
"I'm absolutely thrilled to be joining the Seattle Mariners' broadcast team," said Goldsmith to MLB.com's Greg Johns. "The idea of contributing to an organization with such a rich tradition on the radio is a tremendous honor and a standard I look forward to upholding. I'm eager to start working alongside Rick Rizzs and contributing to the Mariners both on and off the air."
Prior to joining the RoughRiders, Goldsmith was a broadcaster and studio host for the Portland Sea Dogs, Boston's Double-A affiliate. He also called games for Bourne Braves of the Cape Cod League in 2008 and for the Gateway Grizzlies of the independent Frontier League in 2007. Goldsmith graduated from Principia College in Elsah, Ill. with a history degree and then attended the Broadcast Center in St. Louis, where he earned a certificate in Radio Broadcasting and Production.
The regular season begins for the RoughRiders on Thursday, April 4 when Frisco visits the Arkansas Travelers. The 'Riders begin their home schedule on Thursday, April 11 at 7 p.m. when the Travelers come to Dr Pepper Ballpark.

An awaited boost for UK Brexiters? Freetrade announces today it will be launching its disruptive new platform for trading stocks and shares, with proven commission-free trading technology and fractional share dealing in the UK for the first time.Most people, especially millennials, are priced out of investing on the stock exchange. Costly broker fees, typically around £12 per transaction, prohibit smaller investors, who often need to see investments grow considerably before returning a profit. In addition, receiving the correct advice is difficult, because it tends to require an investor meeting with an IFA in person to receive support, both expensive and time-consuming.

These also included a large number of representatives of threatened species that can be sold at extremely high profits. Some collectors are quite willing to pay prices of several thousand euros for such rarities.

Now geologists at Exeter University, studying Kentra Moss in Lochaber, report that climate change is increasing the salt levels in peatlands, making it less able to absorb carbon. In Scotland, some 20 per cent of the land is covered in peat, storing some 1.6 billion tonnes of carbon.

When the CEOs of Aetna and Humana announced a few days ago that they had agreed to a deal in which Aetna will pay $37 billion for Louisville-based Humana, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky pointed the finger of blame straight at Obamacare.
Rockwell once gave us an idealized America, but he went on to provide illustrations of the difficult aspects of our nation, as well: racial conflict, civil rights, violence, poverty. Rockwell's America was complex and rich in its diversity. Kim Davis' America is an illusion.
We, the South, are not just Confederate flags and racist gunmen. We're not just BBQ and cornbread. We're not a collection of dunces because we drive slower than you do or choose to greet someone in a store rather than glare at them in silence. We smile and we don't take ourselves too seriously.
This past week has been one of those special times that prove how unpredictable the flow of events can be. It is an important realization, in our dark era in America, to recognize that our sense of what's possible is likely way too constricted. It tells us that it is never appropriate to yield entirely to despair because we "know" that there's no way things can turn around and get better.
Two religious humans, one the leader of more than a billion Catholics, and the other, a small Kentucky farmer, both recognize that nature and humanity are not mutually exclusive, but mutually dependent.
Republicans like McConnell love to talk about bureaucrats gumming up the works. But what they really want is to get government out of the business of protecting consumers and workers from unscrupulous corporations, too many of whom will take every chance they get to maximize profits without concern for the dangers those risks pose to the rest of us.
Anyone tuned in to CBS Sunday Morning on May 31 couldn't possibly have missed seeing the soft-spoken gentleman with his blue-handled, stainless steel teakettle, a red bird perched at the end of its spout.
Walker Buehler was a key contributor to Vanderbilt's national championship baseball team last year. According to the Vanderbilt Hustler, Vanderbilt's student newspaper, Buehler is listed as high as the second best overall prospect in the upcoming Major League Baseball draft.
Let Me Die In His Footsteps, Roy's new novel, set in a 1952 Kentucky town, concerns Annie Holleran, a 15 year old girl who has an uncanny sense of knowing how things will turn out before they've played themselves through.
Georgia's private Sea Island will open to the public for its first-ever festival of Southern food, beverages and music. The three-day festival beginning June 19 will take place within the various resort properties that comprise the exclusive Sea Island resort complex.
This fall, Volvo will bring its very first facility to North America. South Carolina has become a leader in the emerging auto manufacturing economy, and they're to be lauded for their success in attracting jobs to their state, including BMW and Boeing.
I have pretty much ruled out any activities that involve brain swelling. But I am quite confident that I never considered any experience that involved sleeping in my car in a rental car parking lot at the Cincinnati airport in the middle of the night to be on my bucket list.
The whole concept of miracles is something that I am still getting my arms around. I had major ones happen in my lifetime, but the first time I ever shared them in public was when I wrote the forward to Jim's book.
Every CEO should always be their company's CTO. No I don't mean - "Chief Technology officer" - I mean "Chief Talent Officer."

Excellent 4.2 /5 from 381 reviews
Rooms were a bit small. Matttress were very hard and uncomfortable.
Went for a one night stay and it was a lovely hotel. I was looking for a unique place and I loved the Victorian decor. Nice staff and the bed was comfortable. I would highly recommend it.
We stayed here a couple years ago and decided to stay again. When checking in the front desk person was not very friendly. Professional but just seemed a bit grumpy. Luckily the concierge the next am was very happy and friendly. Our closet had no door on it which bugged me. Maybe because we were in an ADA room? Not sure. Our room was very quiet considering you are in the city. Breakfast is decent but I found myself wanting some hot cereal or yogurt in addition to all the breads and hard boiled eggs. I did enjoy sitting by the gas fireplace and reading the newspaper after breakfast. Lots of comfortable reading/hanging out areas. Easy walk to Fillmore Street with great restaurants. Parking is available.
Cute, quaint, loaded with character. Looks SO MUCH better in person than in the pictures.
In our two weeks vacation on the West Coast, this was the WORST and most expensive place we stayed. We arrived after a long night of sight-seeing San Francisco. We checked-in, then went into the room. It was smaller than expected, and older. Don't go looking for amenities in this antiquated building. Of course, the hotel is old, but we thought it would be a cool way to spend my birthday. It was not. Once we got in bed, we noticed that the four-poster bed creaked and made noises with any small movement. It would be hard for one person to fall asleep and impossible for two people. We didn't sleep a wink. Not only that, but we started itching as soon as we got into the sheets. The next day I spoke to the manager saying we couldn't sleep because of the creaking and the itching. They gave my a $35 credit on the bill of $225. I asked for a bigger discount, saying we lost of night's sleep and that I was not leaving a happy customer. The manager denied any other discounts. Also, the breakfast was as good as a motel's breakfast. Don't sleep here, don't waste your money.

Julia Gillard's carbonites score a huge poll swing:
Tony Abbott's approval rating has plunged to a record low 33 per cent and the Gillard Government leads the Coalition for the first time this year, according to today's Newspoll.
In a dramatic turnaround from Labor's worst-ever opinion poll figures just two weeks ago, the ALP has picked up votes from the Coalition and the Greens to post a six point jump in primary support to 36 per cent.
The Coalition's primary vote fell five points to 40 per cent and the Greens dropped three points to 12 per cent.
2011 just became yet more interesting.
UPDATE. If Kristina Keneally's father was running for office in NSW, he might just win:
He doesn't believe in global warming and is vehemently opposed to any carbon tax.

Gippsland Trades and Labour Council secretary John Parker welcomes proposals for massive carbon tax compensation:
"In reality what it means is that the tax payers don't actually pay anything for the carbon tax," Mr Parker said.
So, what's the point of the tax then? Wasn't it meant to alter behaviour? Oh, but it will. Julia Gillard explains:
In the consumer end, where there will be some price impacts, people will be standing there in the supermarket with the household assistance in their hand. As a result of pricing carbon pollution, some products will be relatively more expensive. Products that have less embedded carbon pollution will be relatively cheaper. Now, people can go in and keep on buying the same old products, or they can respond to those price signals, buy the things that are relatively cheaper with less carbon pollution in them and send a signal back to business 'you know what, consumers like to buy things with less carbon pollution in them', and businesses will respond to that price signal, too.
Ms Gillard is re-writing our shopping lists. This sounds half patronising and half Soviet Union. Next, the Prime Minister is asked:
HOST: And assuming that that all works, there's then the issue of what will all this actually achieve? If the argument that Australia's emissions are only about 1.5 per cent of global emissions, and the 2020 aim is to reduce our emissions by 5 per cent. Now I'm not sure what 5 per cent of 1.5 per cent is, but I'm sure it's not a lot. What's the point of this whole thing? That's what a lot of people are asking.
Gillard's response? The per-capita lie:
PM: Well, the point of this whole thing is to say to ourselves the truth, which is we are big emitters of carbon pollution by world standards. Per capita, per head of population, we are the biggest emitters of carbon pollution in the developed world.
That's the best she's got. And it's wrong.

"Young Australians have a simple vision," declares the Australian Youth Climate Coalition. "We want to be able to enjoy a stable climate similar to that which our parents and grandparents enjoyed." In fact, what they want is your money. The AYCC, whose parents and grandparents existed in a mythical era of endless serenity, recently sent out a cash-begging email:
Two weeks ago we heard that shock-jock radio hosts and climate deniers had organised a rally to say no to action on climate change. Immediately, AYCC volunteers, with our friends at GetUp, the ACTU and others, stepped in to organise a rally of our own.
The result: last Saturday, 8,000 people came together in Melbourne in support of a price on pollution – an incredible demonstration that the majority of Australians support strong action on climate change. Check out the video here.
Let's do:
Seriously, people. Even scientologists don't lay it on that thick. One AYCC holy sister seems on the verge of tears about her carbon-taxing belief system. (Note, by the way, that the AYCC video cuts panda girl from Ten's footage, possibly because she's too young.) Back to the AYCC email:
This is just the beginning. The shock-jocks, climate deniers and right-wing politicians don't want climate action, and they are determined to block all progress. The AYCC is ready and willing to do whatever it takes to make sure the Government gets it right, because it's our future that's on the line.
But we need your help. Can you donate $20 today to help grow our climate campaign?
So the buy-in is already up to $20. Even the losers at GetUp! were only after $10.
(Via Habib, who emails: "Odd how all these organisations are always on the scrounge, yet opposition groups manage to organise events without spending a cracker. I also note the involvement of the ACTU - I wonder how their members feel about their dues being given to yahoos who are determined to do them out of a job?")

Fairfax executive Michael Gill denies reports that he'll be replaced by someone from News Ltd:
The interviewer – some kind of advertising limey, I think; Sydney is full of them – shares Gill's dismissive view. Then, this morning, Gill was replaced by someone from News Ltd.
UPDATE. From the source of that video:
When Mumbrella editor Tim Burrowes put rumours of his imminent departure to Gill in a video interview last week, he cast doubts on them.
So did Burrowes.

There is now twice as much water in Sydney's dams as there was following Tim Flannery's spectacular deluge-bringing 2007 no-water prediction:
Those upswings in the catchment level … they almost look like little hockey sticks.

An excellent column by the Guardian's Victoria Coren:
It is only a certain percentage of children who will ever have their imaginations captured by Shakespeare, algebra and foreign languages. The mistake, in a previous generation, was to privilege these disciplines above metalwork, carpentry and cookery. Our elders decided that it was insulting to the "less bright" kids to teach them "trades" instead of Hamlet.
But it isn't at all. Some children's brains come alive for practical or visual skills, some for flights of mental fancy; you don't need to define them as more or less "clever". Learning anything, whether speaking French or making a table, is beautiful for its own sake. We once had a system that identified whether children excelled at physical or verbal creativity, respected both and weighted their education accordingly. Abandoning that system was both patronising and short-sighted. It was a decision taken by those who had shone in written exams themselves, but couldn't hammer a nail to save their lives.
Bookish types are especially entertaining around cars. A friend of mine, an award-winning writer, once drove across several US states before she realised that her rental car had an overdrive gear. I know of an academic who hired a Prius and even after driving it for some days believed that it could be recharged via a plug. Another friend, easily a genius by any verbal or written measure, once topped up his engine oil. I mean, right to the top. It took gallons. More from Coren:
I had a plumber round here the other day, talking about his disappointing son.
"He's a bit slow," the plumber revealed. "He could never make it in plumbing. I once left him to drill six holes in a wall. Came back an hour later, he hadn't even managed one of them. Poor lad, he isn't the smartest."
"What does he do now?" I asked.
"He works for the civil service," said the plumber, sadly.
UPDATE. Coren also makes sense about shoes:

Ice cream with benefits in NYC:
As Louis Scala drove through Staten Island in a Lickety Split ice cream truck, it was not just the children who eagerly awaited his arrival, officials said on Thursday. Mr. Scala also used the truck to sell oxycodone, a highly addictive prescription painkiller, to waiting addicts …
It would not be the first time ice cream trucks have been implicated in drug-selling schemes. Nor would it be the second.
It's just wrong. Like cats with thumbs.

Swiss Telco Swisscom is revamping its IPTV service 'Swisscom TV' by giving customers the ability to set up their own channels, and have recommendations tuned to their mood.
It has chosen a content recommendation engine from Israeli company Jinni for this, bringing a TV guide including personalized channels based on different facets of the user's tastes, as well as listings of TV programming currently airing geared to the user's individual preferences. It also features semantic search, which involves consumers entering phrases, such as "mind bending" and "stylized," to locate content that the system deems to match the underlying meaning of the words.
There is also the usual social recommendation facility, enabling groups of friends to find TV shows and movies that match their combined preferences, and also serve up recommendations based on content rated highly by other users with similar preferences.

More Lincoln Road Restaurant Shuffling
Santo Restaurant & Lounge has just appointed Cory Smith, former sous chef at Pacific Time, to be their executive chef. The new menu will debut this Saturday, July 7th.
The Back Story (maybe):A couple of weeks ago I met John Mariani, longtime food editor for Esquire Magazine, at Santo Restaurant. He was in town to check out new restaurants, and was finishing his meal when I joined him for a short chat. I didn't ask about his just-completed dinner, but a couple of cryptic comments led me to believe he was less than impressed. While I didn't try any of the food, I did look over the menu and eye the dishes being served at other tables. After Mariani left, I talked with a friend of the restaurant proprietors, and was rather blunt in my assessment: If Santo wanted to be the type of restaurant that would be taken seriously by people like John Mariani, they would have to hire a serious chef. I have no idea if my words ever reached the owners' ears, but Cory Smith is just the sort of talented, experienced pro I was referring to. -- Lee Klein

Sure, but the social psychologists cited are just women, so, you know…
And…posted by a man.
John is ambitious, driven, and intelligent. He works for a high-profile
consulting firm and sits on the advisory board of a political think
tank. Hold him in your mind's eye, and ask yourself a question: In the
absence of other information, would you want to be friends with him?
Now, let's just change for a moment John's name to Joan.
Perhaps not the best example, because my douchey counter is clicking no matter the gender.
To be sure, there's also sexism in the hatefully-pretentious, masturabotry world of "consulting". I shudder to think of the laughably-po-faced autoerotica that must be traded in the (surely-sexist) realm of thinktankery.
I've never been able to put my finger on why, but the prose style in a book makes me read it in my head in a male or female voice. Even when I check the cover & find out that I'm wrong, the original gendered voice persists.
I've been trying to decide if I'm kind of sexist for liking "Breaking Bad" so much more than the later seasons of "Weeds." Both shows feature middle-class suburbanites-turned-drug-dealers who make decisions that eventually have terrible consequences for people around them, but I have much more fun admiring/despising Walter White than Nancy Botwin.
Yeah, same here. Funny to hear someone else mention it. I've concluded that we're good on this one-Weeds just got too corny and I lost interest-'bout the time Nancy was doing the 'brick dance' down in Mexico (instead of, say, master minding a whole death and betrayal scheme with Macgyver tricks thrown in). Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe sexism had something to do with why Nancy's character was never permitted to fully break out of the wacky light-but-edgy comedy mold, but maybe it just wasn't as good a show. It's weird, but I still think that Big Love was one of the least sexist shows on TV. And it was about multiple wives in a religion that strictly maintains a male-over-female hierarchy. FWIW.
So, this article arguing that we have negative stereotypes about female characters is based on conjecture and negative stereotypes of actual men, and not actual objective data (not even an anecdote!):
"I'd venture to guess that she simply didn't think twice about her
question or its relative merit (or lack thereof) because, well, she was a
woman talking to a woman about a woman. As David Daley pointed out in Salon,
the question "might not be posed to a male author in quite this way."
Nor, I would add, would it be posed the same way by a male interviewer
(who would be all too aware of its potential bias) or about a male
protagonist (who would be evaluated differently to begin with). McCleave
thought herself on safe ground—and ran afoul of the gender biases that
tend to permeate our perceptions on a fundamental level, female or no."

We stayed only one night and we enjoyed it very much. We were very nicely welcomed, the staff at the reception were extremely warm and helpful. Our room was quite big, very clean and the bathroom was very good. The breakfast was on the 6th floor with a marvellous view of the city. Shame that the weather was not good otherwise it would have been amazing just to be there.
In short we enjoyed very much staying in that hotel and I would like to come back.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- We personally enjoy welcoming our guests, we wish to reinvent the concept of hospitality, and we have the inspiration to provide the warmth of home in every detail. This is how the Antica Torre di Via Tornabuoni 1, Florence came to be: a tower-house built in the mid-12th century by the Guelph family of Ruggerini. At the beginning of the 20th century, this palace became "Pensione Piccioli," and quickly turned into a privileged residence for aristocrats and English writers. Closed after the Great War, Pensione Piccioli reopened in 2001, as a Period Residence called "Antica Torre di Via Tornabuoni 1." Thanks to attentive restoration to preserve all its original charm, the evocative ambiance of the Palace on Via Tornabuoni has regained life and warmth. This magnificent complex is considered one of the typical "tower-houses" of Mediaeval Florence, and, to this day, it still preserves all its characteristic architectural elements: it is an admirable example of the human ability to convert buildings built for war into oases of peace, culture and hospitality. In this ancient tower, we have created a world of harmony, privacy, and attentiveness to our guests' needs. Luxury, peace, and beauty are all in traditional Italian style, and give the concept of comfort new aesthetics. Almost all rooms enjoy an enchanting view of the city or the Arno River, and all are furnished with the highest in comfort: satellite plasma TVs, DVD players, wireless internet connection, direct line telephone, minibar, electronic safe, air conditioning and heating, private marble bath with tub and/or shower, hair dryer, slippers and shoehorns, and Dr Vranjes scented essences. Some of the Rooms and Suites are decorated with a Renaissance flair: with frescoes, drapes in coloured precious fabrics, bathrooms in red Alcantara or Gold Calacatta marble, and romantic four poster beds. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Hotels.com, Expedia, Booking.com, Hotwire, Priceline, Travelocity, Odigeo, Agoda and Cheap Tickets so you can book your Antica Torre di Via Tornabuoni reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

Local ad specialist WebVisible has ceased operations and will transfer assets to its lender, Silicon Valley Bank, according to a note from CEO Ronald Burr to the company's staff.
TechCrunch obtained the missive, sent by Burr to remaining employees on Tuesday. In it, he apologizes for the abrupt bad news and states the company couldn't meet its debt obligations despite "all our efforts to recover throughout this past year."
"This happened quite suddenly, and the timing could not be more unfortunate…As of today there are no employees left at WebVisible, including myself and therefore there is no one to handle anything for you," he wrote. "I can't imagine a worse scenario for shutting a company down and laying everyone off, the only concession I was able to get from the bank was to wait until after Christmas."
No one at WebVisible's main phone number picked up when ClickZ called. The firm has not updated its blog since October 17, and its Twitter and Facebook accounts have also been silent since mid-October.
WebVisible had worked with affiliate partners who push its local marketing services, including search ads, Internet Yellow Pages, Web presence management, and social media advertising. It has faced many complaints from small- to mid-sized business owners angered by the company's sales tactics and often weak results for steep fees. Those fees could fall between $500 and $5,000 a month.
Noted one business owner on the independent website ConsumerAffairs.com, "They do not respond to any of our requests, we have had 3 different account managers in just 4 months, they have failed to deliver our leads, they did actually gave us a credit for their mistakes, but insisted we stay with them for a year to get our credit. The great salesperson who sold us this is nowhere to be found."
In May, the company moved its headquarters to the Playa Vista area of Los Angeles. At the time, Burr noted in a statement, "We've been re-energized as a company and we're excited about where we're going."
