How to use Variable section in a report layout

lornisse

Hello

please i want to know how to declare variable and how to use it in a report layout variable section

Thank you
it is correct and work but if i want to use the CountDistinct function in the code section (custom code section = report properties code section ) and not in the body
it is possible ?

Right click → properties → variable (in the report layout)

I don't think you can use the countdistinct in the code section...it's an aggregate function that works on a dataset.
What do you want to achieve? I never needed "variables" section in my experience...and i've done hunderds of reports
