Dynamic layout & whitespace

Hi,

I have a report that, among other things, contains 3 tables laid out side-by-side horizontally. The first table is conditionally visible and when it is hidden the report contains whitespace instead of the table. The problem is that this causes an unappealing visual look because the other 2 tables look shifted too much to the right.

What is the recommended way for dealing with situations like this? There doesn't seem to be support for specifying the location (i.e. top, left) of elements based on expressions. Am I "stuck" with having to create multiple flavors of the report?

Thanks,

Vitaly

Any help is appreciated! :)

Can someone from the SSRS team please shed some light on this?

Thanks

Dynamic formatting question

Hello,

I have a dataset that returns one column of data from which some fields are supposed to appear horizontally in the report, while the rest appear line by line vertically. Is it possible to take, for example, three consecutive fields from the dataset and merge the corresponding table rows that hold these fields in the report? Perhaps using an expression or custom code?

Thanks in advance for any help. I'd be happy to provide examples of what I need if it can help clarify the question.

Not exactly sure what you are trying to do, but you can write expressions that concatenate the value of multiple fields, such as:

=Fields!ColumnA.Value & Fields!ColumnB.Value & Fields!ColumnC.Value
