Formatting text within cell

I have multiple words within a single tablecell and need to be able to make one of them bold, not the entired contents of the tablecell, just one word within it. I can't find a way to do it.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks.
As far as I am aware you can't differentially format text in a cell. Andrew Watt MVP - InfoPath wrote in message news:5fe80da2-bdd1-4e54-987d-31f576f8913c@.discussions.microsoft.com... >I have multiple words within a single tablecell and need to be able to

Formatting text in a single table cell

I have a two column report. However, in the footer, i'd like to present a
column similar too:
Total spent: $100
Total left: $1,230
So that the NUMBER values on the right are completely right justified, but
the text on the left is actually LEFT justified. Can this type of
formatting occurr within the same cell?
TIA,

www.si-intl.comJustification is done on a per cell basis. What you can do is use a
rectangle that contains two textboxes for each row. This would allow you to
apply the justification as needed.

formatting issures using tables and mutiple matrixes

Hi. I have a report that pulls all info from a single dataset. However, one
field "type" contains either "a" or "b". I have two matrixes, One for the
description and count of type a and another for type b. I also have data
from the dataset that needs to be both before and after each matrix.
When i layout the tables and matrixes, I measure them EXACTLY next to each
other by adding the position of one item and the width of it to determin the
position of the next. Also put them all in a header of another table with
zero padding. I also make the cangrow and canshrink atrributes to false to
keep all my rows aligned.
No matter what I do, the report always comes out unaligned. I've tried
rectangles already and they didnt work either. sometimes the report will
break on the tables for x number of rows and break for the matrixes at y
number of rows.
Does anyone know how to make matrixes and tables line up side by side,
return the same number of rows per page (this hsould be a no brainer because
its getting its data from the same dataset and there are no forced breaks)
AND make sure all the rows are the same width to ensure what is really four
tables looks like one?
I can provied the rdl if anyone wants to see it.Sorry, forgot to mention. SQL2005, Reporting Services 2005

Formatted text in report parameter

I want the user to add his/her own title and some text to the report which can be bold, different color etc. Can this be done via a single report parameter and are there any ways to do it?

Not out of the box. If you use SRS 2005, the ReportViewer controls (part of VS 2005) will allow you to show reports in any ASP.NET or Winforms application. Using the controls, you can hide the report parameters page and replace it with your own prompting logic. See www.gotreportviewer.com for more details.

If you use SRS 2000, you can achieve most of this by putting an iframe to the report server in your web page and include rc:Parameters=False to hide the parameters area. You web page would be responsible for parameters prompting and for feeding the values to the report server iframe. For ex: http://server/reportserver/?PathToTheReport&rc:Parameters=false&Param1=value1&Param2=Value2

Format Substring in Textbox

I have a textbox that's several lines in height. I want to put several lines
of text in one textbox to get single spacing. I don't want to use multiple
textboxes, as I have to push multiple textboxes so close together it looks
like a mess.
In the first line below, I actually need the static text "Caller" to be bold
and underlined. I can't even get bold to work using this approach. Any
suggestions on how to get the word "Caller" to be bold and underlined,
leaving the rest as normal text?
=Format("Caller", Style.Bold)
& controlchars.Newline
& Fields!Salutation.Value
& " " & Fields!FirstName.Value
& " " & Fields!LastName.Value & controlchars.Newline
& Fields!EStreetNumber.Value & " " & Fields!EStreet.Value
Thanks,

RandyHello Randy,
Thank you for your posting!
Unfortunatly, the format will apply on the whole textbox control. You could
not make the first line have different style with other lines.
One workaround of this issue is to use some third-party RichText control
instead of the textbox control.
