Hi

I have created several columns with expressions, not actual fields, how do I call a column thats not in the dataset? so a column called Test for example, how would I call this to work out conditional formatting?
Thanks

you can call it using ReportItems collection

ReportItems!Textboxname.value etc

also if you're trying to set conditional formatting for same textbox and has to invoke its own content use Me.value
