How to make a formula be invisible in SSRS 2012
Hello:
I have composed a report in SQL Reporting Services 2012 (SSRS). In one of the cells, I have a formula that I want to use in the future but not right now.
So, I don't want data to appear in the cell. But, I want the cell itself to appear. In other words, I want the cell to appear without data in it.
I want to do this, in case I want to make use of the formula in the future.
When I tried the "Visibility" properties of the textbox, that essentially "removed" the cell from view. But, that's not what I want. Again, I want the cell to be there--only blank and still containing the formula "behind the scenes", in case I want to activate the formula in the future.
How do I do this?
Thanks!
