Conditional Formatting In A Matrix Control

Hi there.
I am creating a report that the requirements need different background colors based on the row or column as shown below:

I can get the row colors to work great with an expression, but when I try to add the gray column with conditional formatting for the Resident's Overall Satisfaction Rating question, it clobbers my row formatting. I am thinking that I will have to do some gnarly expression in each of the rows and columns using the InScope function. Does that sound about right, or is there an easier way?
Thanks, Mike

I'm sure i will have to use the IIF function in conjunction with the InScope function.
However i'm unsure on how to isolate to the max value and make sure the Inscope function does not affect the totals.
any idea's are appreciated.

When I created a Table control, I was able to read things like .Color, FormattedValue, etc. from SSAS. This was great, because I could control all existing and future reports' formatting via one change in the cube.
Now, I've decided that a Matrix control is superior for various reasons. However, I notice that I MUST apply an aggregate function to get a cell value...well, it appears that this means there's no longer any way for me to read my SSAS formatting.
I tried =First(Fields!DataValue.FormattedValue), =Max(...), etc.
I also tried it with the color property, etc. Nothing worked.
Are there any workarounds? I'd hate to embed the formatting into each of my 40 reports, because the user is likely to change his/her mind after the fact.
Thank you,
Bert

I have a matrix report:
My Expression in the data fields inside design mode is:
IIF(Fields!Row_num.Value mod 2 ,"White","LightGrey")
I am using a Dense rank Function at the dataset level in order to group id column wise. So Fields!Row_num.Value comes from that set.
Earlier it was BLANK values: Please see below for reference.
Tried IsNull on SQL Server already and does not work because there are no NULLs in the data I am retrieving. The empty cells happen when the matrix creates the crosstab report - where there is no data for a column. Everything else works well except the BLANK values being not colored as you see in the screen shot, im using ISNOTHING function to achieve those 0's if NULLS inside the report. But though we have a value inside the cell coming from report it does not colour the entire group.
My requirement is coloring the entire column group irrespective of the NULLs' or Blanks.
Have also tries several functions, but of no use. I am missing with a tiny thing I guess which I am unable to figure out.
Other Functions Tried:
=IIF(VAL(ReportItems!ROWCOLOR.Value) MOD 2,"WHITE","LightGrey")
=iif(RunningValue(Fields!City.Value,CountDistinct,Nothing) Mod 2, "LIGHTBLUE", "SILVER")
=iif(RunningValue(Fields!DQLogDateTime.Value,CountDistinct, Nothing) MOD 2, "LightGrey","White")

I want to write an expression that will evaluate 2 fields. So, in simple terms, I want the following:
if field1 > 0 and field2 = "yes", apply formatting, otherwise leave formatting as is.
I am familiar with using iif statements, but since I want to evaluate 2 fields instead of one, I'm not sure how to proceed.
It seems I may need to use another statement, such as the Switch statement...I just don't know how.
Thanks for any help!

hu guys,
I am trying to change the colour of the background of each row in a table depending on the month it is.
I have tried putting the expression
=IIF(Datepart("month",Fields!AppDate.Value) = Datepart("month",Now) ,"Green","Red")
in the backgroundcolor forthe table row, but it doesn' work.
do you have any suggestions ? or can see why this isn't working?
kind regards

Hi,
I have a report as such:
dataset:
select s.supplier, i.item, p.price, i.[type],i.origin,i.unit
from pricelist p,item i,suppliers s
where p.item = i.pkey and p.supplier = s.pkey
and a matrix that has
row groups; item,type,origin,unit
column groups : supplier
and price as detail.
this has been achieved
example:
freshegg bestdeal freshmarket
Eggs small lo ea 1 2 2
now i want minimum price to be highlighted.
the minimum price on that row to be for example red.
I am currently trying in color properties set it like this:
=IIf(Fields!price.Value = Min(Fields!price.Value, "matrix1_unit"),"DarkRed","Black")
where matrix1_unit is the last row group,
but this is not working right,
Anyone has some directions?
thanks.

I have the following code in the color property of a textbox. However, when I run my report all of the values in this column display in green regardless of their value.
=SWITCH(Fields!Wrap.Value >= 3, "Red", Fields!Wrap.Value < 3, "Green")
I already tried =iif(Fields!Wrap.Value >= 3 , "Red", "Green") and got the same results.
Is it because this is a matrix report? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance . . .

I have an SSRS report that I want to use conditional formatting on. When the value of the cell = 0, I want the background yellow, and the font red. For the background, I have:
=IIF(Fields!reads.Value = 0, "Yellow","White")
For the font color, I have
=IIF(Fields!reads.Value = 0,"Red", "Black")
The issue is that the background one is working properly, while the font one is not. If the value = 0, the font is invisible. The value is present in the report (I can export to excel and see it just fine). If I change both the background and font to the defaults, the value is STILL invisible.

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to hide a column in a matrix table. I have no trouble using conditional formatting to control the visibility of the column, but when I hide the column the main row in the matrix does not shrink. Therefore, I have a big gap€¦ My thought was to use conditional formatting to control the column width of the main matrix row. Listed below is the expression that I used. Can anyone help me with the error message or recommend a better solution?
=IIF(Fields!FiscalYear.Value = IIF(Month(TODAY()) = 10-12,Year(TODAY()) ,Year(Today())-1), 0.625in, 0.25in) cannot be parsed as a unit because it does not contain numeric values. Examples of valid unit strings are "1pt" and ".5in".
Regards,
A.Akin

I have a column that contains either a test score or the state abbreviation where the student passed a particular test. I want the text to be red between 100-159, green greater than or equal to 160 and black otherwise.
This is what I've tried to take care of the scores:
=IIf(Fields!Score.Value <= 159 and Fields!Score.Value > 100,"Red", "Green")
Two issues:
I want all other scores (< 100) to be Black and
I'm not sure how to deal with the state abbreviations. I'm assuming this is why I receive this error:
[rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The Color expression for the textbox €˜Score€™ contains an error: Input string was not in a correct format.
Preview complete -- 0 errors, 1 warnings
All data is stored as varchar.

I am trying to format a background color based on the field's value. But the expression always returns the false result.
Here is the expression I am using
=iif(Me.Value="RSB","Red","Blue")
I have also tried
=iif(ReportItems("Type").Value="RSB","Red","Blue")
Both fill the background color blue when the textbox clearly contains RSB. I'm not sure why it cannot find the value. The field data type is Char(4). The textbox values are all uppercase.
This all started when I was trying to use a report parameter for conditional formatting and I realized that it wasn't working. I broke down the expression by directly trying a value.
Any thoughts?

I have a report that when the user drills down I need to change the formatting to include borders and/or colours. I tried adding the following statement to top border of the element without luck. Since I don't know when the detail is the last line of the drop down, I am uncertain how to try adding it there.
I do not want the underline to show when there is no expanded drill down.
=iif((Previous(Level) > 0, "Dotted", "None")
g1 name1 total1
g1 name2 total2
d po#3a total3a
d po#3b total3b <<-- want to add underline between total3b and total3
g1 name3 total3
Thank you

I am trying to create a report which has conditional formatting.
The primary dataset is a view of objects with several values
eg
object1,0,4,0,1
object2,0,3,1,1
The secondary dataset is the comparison table and just contains the values
eg
0,3,1,1
I'd like to conditionally format the values based on the comparison table but when I create an expression comparing to the second dateset
eg
=iif(Fields!object1.Value <> Fields!comp_object1.Value , "Red", "SkyBlue")
i get
Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
Not sure if there is a way to tell the expression to look for comp_object1 in dataset2, even tho it is uniquely named?
Ideas gratefully received !

Hi,
Does anyone know how to implement conditional formatting with three criteria (e.g. If a value is <83 then BGcolour Green, between 83 and 90 the BGcolour is Yellow, greater than 90 the BGcolour is green).
I have tried approaching it in two ways. One was with a case statement as follows:
CASE
WHEN TargetPer < 83 THEN 'Red'
WHEN TargetPer >= 83 AND TargetPer < 90 THEN 'Yellow'
WHEN TargetPer >= 90 THEN 'Green'
END AS BGColor
TargetPer being the value i wish to examine. I returned this in the query dataset i am using to populate the report. I then used the following expression to set the backgroundcolor property:
=Fields!BGColor.Value
Unfortunately I get no yellow fields for the appropriate values (even though the BGcolor value says yellow!!!)
The other approach i have used is the following expression to set the background colour
=IIf(Fields!TargetPer.Value>90,"Green",IIf(Fields!BGColor.Value>=83 and Fields!BGColor.Value <=90, "Yellow","Red"))
For this i still have no yellows just reds and greens!
I am using a matrix report that has subgroups on the columns for table!
Any ideas anyone????
Thanks
Marek

SQL Server 2000. Here's what I have so far. The section of the query I need help with is highlighted in blue.
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.GetByVersion
(
@targetVersion varchar(30),
@product varchar(50)
)
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT * FROM MyTable
WHERE (product = @product)
AND
CASE
WHEN @targetVersion='' THEN (targetVersion='')
ELSE (targetVersion LIKE @targetVersion + '%')
END
GO
I get a syntax error in the Stored Procedure editor on an equal sign in this line:
WHEN @targetVersion='' THEN (targetVersion='')
What I want is this (in psuedocode):
if @targerVersion is blank
search for records where the targetVersion column = blank
else
search for records where the targetVersion column starts with @targetVersion
Can anyone offer any suggestions as to how I might modify my query to do what I want? Any help is very much welcome - Thanks in advance! :-)

There is no conditional color formatting for Report Builder.
Is there any way to have it - write plug-in for example.
I tried to "hack" rdl file the RB produces:
but it didn't work.
Also, I hear that Microsof is about to issue a fix for it (SSRS 2005). Is it true?

Hello,
I am having a problem trying to do some conditional formatting on the text color.
This textbox is in the Group Footer so i essentially want change the color to red if the SUM of one field in the group is less than the SUM of another field in the same group.
I am doing this:
=Iif(Sum(Fields!YTDChargeHours)< Sum(Fields!YTDForecast), "Red", "Black")
but i am getting this error:
[rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The Color expression for the textbox €˜YTDChargeHours€™ contains an error: Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.
Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to put conditional formatting on a field, that behaves as follows:
The data in the field is varchar, and sample data is either:
NULL
3.0 :0
11.7 :1 (these are ratios of a sort)
I want to evaluate the first 3 characters of the string as numbers.
Example:
Mid(fieldvalue,1,3) = "3.0" or "11."
Any data that is greater than 1.99, I want to make the background dark red, anything else including nulls, zebra formatting. I have the following expression built so far and it appears to work, except when the value is null. If the value is null, it leaves the background color white.
This is the warning: [rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The BackgroundColor expression for the text box "Asthma" contains an error: Input string was not in a correct format.
=iif(
isnothing(Fields!Asthma.Value)
,(IIf(RowNumber(Nothing) Mod 2 = 0,"#b8cce4","#dbe5f1"))
,(iif(mid(Fields!Asthma.Value,1,3)>1.99
,"DarkRed"
,IIf(RowNumber(Nothing) Mod 2 = 0,"#b8cce4","#dbe5f1"))))
My logic is, if the field is null, zebra format, if mid of the value is > 1.99, dark red, everything else zebra formatting. As I said, this seems to work except for nulls.

Let's say I have raw data that looks something like this
Fruit_name status count
apples Fresh 5
apples rotten 3
pears Fresh 3
pears rotten 2
and I was to matrix it and group on fruit_name and add a subtotal to count. In that subtotal, without changing what was displayed in the details number, could I conditionaly only show a sum of fresh fruit? Example below
Apples 5
Apples 3
-------------------
Total 5
Pears 3
Pears 2
----------------------
Total 3
in a nonmatrix situation I'd use something like
sum(iif(status="Fresh",count,0))
Thanks for the help.

I have two DropDownList controls, ddlGroup and ddlLocation.
The contents of ddlLocation will be determined by the selection of ddlGroup. A better explanation is as follows:
ddlGroup =
ADVANCED DEVELOPMENT
DESIGN
HEAD TEST
INK R&D
JETTING
PROCESS
RELIABILITY
The SQL query that shows my logic is:
IF @Group = 'ADVANCED DEVELOPMENT' SELECT Location FROM tblLocations WHERE Location like 'AD%'ELSE IF @Group = 'DESIGN' SELECT Location FROM tblLocations WHERE Location like 'DE%'ELSE IF @Group = 'HEAD TEST' SELECT Location FROM tblLocations WHERE Location like 'HT%'ELSE IF @Group = 'INK R&D' SELECT Location FROM tblLocations WHERE Location like 'INK%'ELSE IF @Group = 'JETTING' SELECT Location FROM tblLocations WHERE Location like 'JT%'ELSE IF @Group = 'PROCESS' SELECT Location FROM tblLocations WHERE Location like 'PR%'ELSE IF @Group = 'RELIABILITY' SELECT Location FROM tblLocations WHERE Location like 'RL%'
I need to define the content of ddlLocation after a selection is made in ddlGroup; how can I accomplish this using Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition?

Hi:
A branching element is critical to any process flow. Currently, as far as I know, there;s only a Conditional Split Data Flow Element. There is no direct way I can branch out in a control flow.
In some cases, I could branch by using a conditional operator ?: to either create a dynamic sql string for each patch, or a package name for a Package Execution task and so on.
This approach is not always good enough.
Are there others out there who want a Conditional Control Flow element?
TIA

Hi there,
I'm having trouble inserting a conditional format to a specific column.
e.g.: Matrix within the rows the "weeks" (1, 2, 3, ... , 52), and in the column a "lastyear revenu", "thisyear revenue" and a difference between them, "delta %", in percent grouped by the stores.
I added a subtotal to it so I get in the latest column the "total lastyear revenue", the "total thisyear revenue" and a difference between them in percent for all stores, "total delta %", for a specific week.
Problem: I want to colour the "delta %" column green when it is greater then the "total delta %" value.
I thougt this would be quite easy, but it really is a pain in the *** because, in the background expression dialog box, I can't refer to the subtotal cells ...
