Rollup Using SSRS Expression and make a row bold

Hello,

I have a requirement to make the total row bold but when I try this expression it makes the entire field bold.

=IIf(Fields!Submitted_Surveys_with_LMI.Value="Total","Bold","Default"). I want only the Row Total bold. If this cannot work how can I write an expression for RollUP for each field to get the total so that I can have control over fields.

Hi,
Reading the expression, made me think the "TOTAL" is part of the recordset, if that is the case, I would apply the formatting condition on each column.
Please, let me know if I am not reading your question correctly.
Thanks!

Yes I only want the last row made bold.

  3. Create a Datasets, use the Data Source --> Query Type (Text) created in Step 2. Use the following, XML as the source

 

<Query>

    <Data>

        <Total_A>100</Total_A>
        <Total_B>50</Total_B>
        <RowOrder>0</RowOrder>
      </Row>
      <Row>
        <Company>ACME Canada</Company>
        <Total_A>100</Total_A>
        <Total_B>40</Total_B>
        <RowOrder>1</RowOrder>
      </Row>

        <RowOrder>2</RowOrder>
      </Row>
      <Row>
        <Company>Total</Company>
        <Total_A>240</Total_A>
        <Total_B>190</Total_B>
        <RowOrder>3</RowOrder>
      </Row>
    </Data>

  • Click the Fill option and enter the following expression

I hope it helps. Unfortunately, the forum does not allow me to upload the rdl or any other file format.
