"DataSetFieldName" property of Text Box

sbansal

Dear Sir/Mam,

I want to know about the "DataSetFieldName" property of Text Box.
If we are passing the same value in "SourceExpr" and "DataSetFieldName" then what will happen.

Example -- I have a text box for showing UserId on report.
I am passing USERID in "SourceExpr" and "DataSetFieldName". So what is the use of "DataSetFieldName" property.


Regards,

SBansal

In RTC report layouts we use datasetfieldanames to show the fields...

The Datasetfieldname is the property which is referred to set the Expression in the RTC textboxes of Header\Detail\Footer, By right clicking in the text box of Header\Detail\Footer Expr. is seen and on selecting it, an Expression window pops up. The same Datasetfieldname is set in the textbox by referring to the Fields(Dataset_Result) for header and details sections. But for the footer section Expr. is selected from Datasets to get =Sum(Expr) thing.

For Eg:
For datasetfieldname-TotalCaption
Expression in RTC-=First(Fields!TotalCaption.Value)
