Index was outside the bounds of the array

Question

Using Report Builder v15.0.19611.0.
Getting "Index was outside the bounds of the array" errors when attempting to upload the .rdl file to the SSRS Server.

Microsoft SQL Server 2017 Reporting Services - 14.0.600.1763 (x64)
Microsoft SQL Server 2017 - Database Server - 14.0.3421.10 (x64)

Index was outside the bounds of the array.

From what I can tell, SSRS does not like the IF statements when I try to upload the report from a Report Builder session.

Need assistance with converting IF block/blocks to CASE statements:

declare @startDate as datetime
declare @endDate as datetime

declare @currentMonth int

select @currentMonth = datepart(mm, getdate())

--Show the current last week for the month.
if @wkStartDate is null and @wkEndDate is null
begin
if @currentMonth = @monthName
begin
select @startDate = DATEADD(wk, 0, DATEADD(wk, DATEDIFF(wk, 0,getdate()), -2))
select @endDate = dateadd(dd, 6, @startDate)
end
--Show the last week of the month that was choosen.
if @currentMonth <> @monthName
begin
select @endDate = max(TheDate) from hlxlookup.dbo.Lookup_date_calendar where datepart(yyyy, TheDate) = @year AND DATEPART(mm, TheDate) = @monthName
select @startDate = TheDate from hlxlookup.dbo.Lookup_date_calendar where TheDate < @endDate and TheDayOfWeek = 7
end
end

else
begin
select @startDate = @wkStartDate
select @endDate = @wkEndDate
end

Answer 1

I was able to revert back to an earlier version of Report Builder (v15.0.900.71), make the needed changes to the .RDL file and upload successfully to the Report Server.

Which can be found here, for those that may need it:

Hi @Anonymous ，

The exception that is thrown when an attempt is made to access an element of an array or collection with an index that is outside its bounds. An IndexOutOfRangeException exception is thrown when an invalid index is used to access a member of an array or a collection, or to read or write from a particular location in a buffer.

I refer to the thread:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.indexoutofrangeexception?view=net-6.0

And the statement you paste，what does it used for ，is it a dataset ？ Can you paste all your statement ，for the statement I tested on my report builder ，It can‘t work.

Best Regards,
Isabella
