I am looking for a way to translate some of the data cells in an RDL/ReportViewer generated report.

What I would like to do is use some property of the textbox object to indicate the Dll and class to use to translate the cell value.

I would LIKE that the value is translated when I run from ReportViewer. But I understand that I might have to the value un-translated from ReportViewer, but translated when run through my custom renderer.

Does anyone know of a textbox property for localization?
Does anyone know if there is a property that I can use that RS would ignore, but my custom renderer could key off?

I found ValueLocID and some hits on how to fake out localization. This probably works for column headers, but not for data rows.

What about code? Can I create a code object that could do an Activator.CreateInstance ?

Thanks,
Kelley
