For Example i have two Parameters of Date
first: 1/21/2016
Second: 4/21/2017
I want to get second date.Is it possible through any SSRS Expression?
Yes. Assuming that the names of the parameters are First and Second, then you can access the values using the following expression.
=Parameters!First.Value
=Parameters!Second.Value
You can use this type of expression for any parameter, of any type, as long as you know the name.

I'm trying to pass a report variable to an expression used to populate textbox but it's giving me syntax error. Here's the expression.
=Fields!Variables!col1.Value.Value
The variable (Variables!col1.Value) should return a fieldname that I want to use to populate a textbox inside a table.
Edit:
Basically I have a multi-value parameter that passes on to a stored procedure that pulls the data based on the parameter value. The first 4-5 columns returned are static while the rest are dynamic and can have unknown number of columns but I do know the max number of columns.
What I'm trying to do is to create a fixed number of columns and then show/hide them based on the parameter. I get the column title via an expression (=Parameters!Course_IDs.Label(0)) and then I want to use this value to create a textbox that will populate the column based on this value Course_IDs.Label(0).
Since it is a multi-valued parameter, you will likely need to join the results:
=JOIN(Parameters!ParameterName.Value, ", ")
If it is a variable from the dataset you will likely need to use LOOKUPSET() to get the values.
Also note that parameter values might be ugly to look at. In that case use the name instead - Parameters!ParameterName.Label
I have added a Filter in Row Group-> Group Properties to perform sum of quantity only for those transactions which have done before a certain date.
Whenever I am selecting the 'Cdate' as Expression field from my dataset1, the type is showing as Date/Time but after saving it when I check,I found it as 'Text'. As a result the filter for 'cDate' is not working during report generation.
Note that, I can't filter the data in dataset side or tablix side as I have to show all the column items. This is a matrix report.
OK this is going to be a bit confusing because your dataset contains a field with the same name as one of the built-in expression functions ("CDate" - Convert to Date).
I sometimes run into these datatype issues when using filters and I find the best way to handle it is to force both the filter field and the filter value to be the same data type.
So in your case try setting the Filter expression to:
=CDate(Fields!CDate.Value)
then select the operator as "<=" and set the value using an expression as well:
=CDate(Parameters!MyParameter.value)
and see if that works.
I understand you so that your date field in the dataset is called CDate, try casting it as date, so instead of selecting it in your filter, type the following into the filter
=CDate(Fields!CDate.Value)
I have the details of my report being summed up in a summary expression, all works fine. The fields are decimal values of hours worked. Thus, the summary value is also a decimal value. I'd like to access the summary value and convert it to hours / minutes. I've labeled the express as "WorkTimeSum", but can't seem to get a handle to it, however. Fields! obviously won't work since it is a summary expression. I was thinking ReportItems! should work, but to no avail. How can I use this expression field (in a summary row) in an expression in the same summary row?
If I've understood correctly, you're asking how to reference the textbox containing the total work hours value so that you can convert it to hours and minutes using an expression in a different textbox?
You can use either ReportItems! e.g.
=ReportItems!Textbox20.Value)
or ReportItems("") e.g.
=ReportItems("Textbox20").Value
to reference the value of another textbox. Be careful with the names as they are case sensitive.
You can use aggregate functions in any expression. For example, in any header rows you can use the following expression to determine the total hours value:
=Floor(Sum(Fields!hours.Value))
Sum(Fields!hours.Value) is just the total hours in whatever context, e.g. the group total if it's a group header row; you can use this expression as an input in any other expression you require.
It sounds like your issue wasn't the conversion itself, so hopefully this points you in the right direction. If you need further information please specify.
My dataset currently has 12 rows of data. Each representing data for a month. I would like to have variance of a column between to rows, the rows being last & last but one i.e., latest month and previous month's data.
It could have been simple if I were to work on tablix but thats not the case. I want those values for a textbox.
Any ideas on it anyone?
I hope you are using SSRS 2008R2:
R2 introduced the Lookup function that is perfect for this scenario.
=Lookup( Fields!ProductUID.Value ,Fields!ProductID.Value,Fields!Price.Value,"PriceDataSet")
The Lookup function above will evaluate the first parameter ("Fields!ProductUID.Value") in the current dataset, then look for a matching value in the field specified in the second parameter ("Fields!ProductID.Value") in the dataset specified in the fourth parameter. The value of the third parameter is then evaluated in that row of the dataset and returned.
A little convoluted, but very helpful.
In your case, you can use this in a textbox with a calculated a static number:
=Lookup(
Month(DateAdd(DateInterval.Month, -1, GetDate())),
Fields!MonthID.Value,
Fields!Name.Value,
"DataSet1")
This should calculate a number for last month, then look for a match in DataSet1.
In this example I have a tablix with Statecode and name as below
enter image description here
Suppose you want to display the name of state of CA, write an expression as -
=Lookup(
"CA" ,
Fields!StateCode.Value,
Fields!StateName.Value,
"ReportData"
)
This will return 'California' in the text box
I ran across this post while trying to solve a similar problem but with columns of double data type. Not sure why but SSRS did not want to return my first row using LOOKUP in combination with ROW_NUMBER in SQL(If someone can solve that all the better). I ended up using a SUM(IIF) instead. Hopefully, this is useful for someone else.
=Sum(IIF(Fields!RowNum.Value=1,CDBL(Fields!MyNumericColumn.Value),CDBL(0)))
Note: If SSRS complains about data types, just cast both parts of the IIF to the desired data type.
I have generated one ssrs report
now i have two fields having values
1st field value is =Fields!FirstNO.Value
2nd field value is =Fields!SecondNO.Value
now i have one field average and i need to write expression like
average = (Fields!FirstNO.Value+Fields!SecondNO.Value) / (Fields!SecondNO.Value)
how can i write above in expression?? directly as i shown or any other syntax is there please help?
Are you sure these fields are numeric? Maybe try convert to numeric, like =cint(Fields!FirstNO.Value)
