Hi,
In my .rdlc report, I used following statement to assign value of variable.
(right clicked TextBox1, and put the statement in value expression)
=ReportItems!TextBox1.Value=MyVriable

But in TextBox1, it shows 'Error#'

Please advise how to assign the value of MyVariable

Thanks
Furqan

Solution 1

Try this:
1. Put a textbox in the body(make sure it is in report body)
2. Set the visibility to false
3. Set the needed value in it, like =field!neededValue.Value
4. Put another textbox in report header
5. Set the needed value in it, like = ReportItems!bodyTextbox.Value

There should be no error and you should be able to set a dataset field value in header.

I tried to be as clear as possible. Not sure of where is the doubt. Let me try again:

textboxInBody = NeededValue
textboxInHeader = refer textboxInBody.Value
