I'm doing a report, but I cannot add a Label... how can I do this? Thanks!

This is a bug in visual studio / report builder. You can read Claus's blog which describes the error and suggests a couple of workarounds...

BTW - if you are new to reporting then I would suggest reading Claus's blogs - he describes many issues/problems that developers come across when developing SSRS reports and how to work around them.

Add the label that you want from development environment View-->Labels.
Save the report and go to layout. see the report data -->Parameters .From there you can add the label in to you report.

Just adding something what @binilabraham said - la.bels you can directly see in VS but text constants you need to add in data-set so always prefer labels

I can't even copy and paste objects (textbox, lines...) in vs...

Can you please paste some screenshots so it becomes a level more clear to us.

this is what I get when I try to paste something...

It seems some issue with the areas of the copy and Paste.

Copy the expression and delete it, then you can copy it.

Instead of copying the text box, copy the particular expression you want and paste it.
