I want to hide text in rdlc report IF text is between [square brackets]. This will allow me to put supplier identifiers between the square brackets without having these identifiers show up on our outgoing documents.
I am a novice in rdlc report development, and am hoping for a string of code which will block the hidden text for the entire document.
Does the bracketed text you mentioned refer to the bracketed text contained in the data source of your report?
As far as I know, if you want to create a public method to determine whether the current text contains brackets and hide them, you need to do the following steps:
Create a custom assembly that includes a method to verify your requirements.
You need to copy the custom assembly to the sql reporting services folder.
Add a reference to the custom assembly in reporting services.

Hi YongQing,
Thank you for you solution, I'll try to make this work. And you are correct, the bracketed text is indeed contained in the data source.
Kind regards,
Kimo
