Properties in Report Builder 2.0

Properties are used to control the appearance and functionality of report items, such as data regions, text boxes, and graphic elements, as well as the entire report. Properties can be set in the Properties pane. The set of properties that appears in the Properties pane is specific to the report element that you have selected on the design surface, and changes whenever you change your selection.

To open the Properties pane, from the View menu, click Properties, or right-click the design surface and select Properties from the shortcut menu. To change the value of a property, click in the text box next to the property and select a new value or type a valid value.

Some properties accept expressions. Click the ellipsis () to open the Expression dialog box and type a valid expression. For more information about expressions, see Understanding Simple and Complex Expressions (Report Builder 2.0).

Some properties can be set both in the Properties pane and in a dialog box. Dialog boxes provide an alternative way of setting some properties. Properties that contain enumeration values can also contain expressions that evaluate to one of the valid values. Properties can be set directly in the report definition (.rdl) file by using a text editor. Properties are Report Definition Language (RDL) elements. For more information about RDL, see Report Definition Language Reference in SQL Server Books Online on msdn.microsoft.com.

Only standard aggregate functions, like Sum, can be used in a sort expression.

Aggregate functions are evaluated using the default scope defined in the SortExpressionScope property. You can also specify a scope parameter for the aggregate function, but it must be equal to or contain the SortExpressionScope.

References to report items cannot be used in a sort expression.

SortExpressions

Defines an ordered list of expressions to use during a sort.

Each sort expression is applied in sequence from the ordered list to the data specified by the parent property.

SortExpressionScope

Contains the name of the scope (data region or group) in which to evaluate a sort expression.

If omitted, the expression will be evaluated and the sort will be performed independently in each detail scope within the SortTarget.

The value must be a scope that is equal to or contained within the current scope. If the text box has no current scope (for example, it is not contained in any data region), SortExpressionScope must be equal to or contained within the SortTarget property.

The data set for the SortExpressionScope must be the same as the data set for the SortTarget property.

Sorting takes place within the group containing the SortExpressionScope. For example, in a table with a country group and a city group with UserSort property on each header and SortExpressionScope of the corresponding group, the country sort will sort the country groups within the table, and the city sort will sort the city groups within each country group (without rearranging the country groups).

SortTarget

Style   

Contains information about the style of an item.

In a data region, such as Table, Matrix, List, or Chart, text style properties apply only to the text box that appears when the data region contains no rows. If the data region contains data, text style properties are ignored. In this case, text style is determined by the style properties for the text boxes contained within the data region.

When Style is used within the Subtotal property, Style overrides the style of any top-level items in the subtotal column or row. At the intersection of a row and a column, the style of the row overrides the style of the column.

When Style is used within the Axis property, text style properties apply to the axis labels, and line properties apply to axis lines.

A Subreport element is a type of ReportItem element.

Subreports can be nested. Subreports may not be contained in a PageSection property. The subreport Style property applies to the text box that contains the subreport.

When a subreport fails to execute during report processing, the report renderer displays the error message on the report page in the same location as the subreport would have been rendered.

The NoRowsMessage text displays in the subreport when no data is available for any subreport dataset used in the Body element of the subreport.

If no parameters are specified and the report contains no toggle properties, the subreport runs only once, even if the subreport is contained within a data region item such as a Tablix.

When the ReportParameter property UsedInQuery is set to Auto (the default), a reference to a subreport sets the value to True.

You can use the MergeTransactions property to merge transactions that are used in the subreport with the transactions in the parent report if the data sources are the same.

The following Report properties do not apply to Subreport: Description, Author, AutoRefresh, Width, Page, DataTransform, DataSchema. The following ReportItem properties do not apply to Subreport: Action, RepeatWith.
