MSBI SSRS List Property - reporting-services

I am creating a report using MSBI SSRS. i choose list and inside list i added 2 tables. I used list for splitting the tables according to id. The problem i am facing now is that if there exist repeated/ same values in tables, I am only able to see the value once (as a unique value in the table), but i would like to display all the values present in the table rather than hiding the repeated values. I tried finding the property of the list but I am unable to display all the values which I am able to see while executing MDX.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Since you only provide a general description. you get a general answer.
If you have a lower granularity column, just add that column to you group by inside your List.
Or add a rownumber to your dataset, if possible, and group by the rownumber instead.

SSRS column group displays data on unique rows

I have a data set where i'm using a table to display Name, Radio #, and Unit # information in SSRS tablix. As some of the groups have 60+ members, i thought it would be better to expand the tables into 4 columns repeating those detail fields instead of displaying a 3 page long skinny table. In the SQL i used a row count%4 function to assign a "position" number 0-3 for each name. If i create a table with the detail members above and then add a parent column group on position, i get the tables repeated as i want but each name/radio/unit appears on a unique row. I've tried several different ways of grouping rows/columns but always seem to get this staggered table (with only name/radio to make it easier to digest): sample_pic
Sorry if this is a duplicate. I've really searched quite a bit before putting this in but it's probably the case that if i knew what to search, i wouldn't be putting this question in. So if you'd rather tell me what to search i can do that too. :)
SSRS will display a row in the table for each row returned from the dataset, this is normal behaviour for data to display.
One way to get what you want is to create a query which has all the information form your column headings in one row, probably with a pivot or similar.
Or you could just display your columns in separate tables.

Add filter option on each column of the data displayed in SSRS

I am generating a table in SSRS based on the selection made by the user on two filters: Filter1 and Filter2 (say). The table so displayed has 10 columns and I wish to add filter option listing all available values for that column for all 10 columns.
Basically, I am trying to replicate the Excel functionality of filtering down data on each and every column.
Please note that I tried creating a new data set and a parameter taking all distinct values for a particular variable. However, I am still not able to get the desired results by filter the tablix on that parameter
Is there a way I can do that?
You'd need to make a new dataset that is a smaller version of your main dataset. It would need to return all potential values for the column(s) you want to filter in a single column to be used in a parameter.
Without seeing the design of the report or the dataset itself it's quite hard to be more specific.

Create an expression based off grouped rows ssrs

I want to create a single rectangle on a report that displays red if there are more then 2 distinct projects being worked on within that week (see image below):

I'd need to write some kind of expression like IIF(CountDistinct(Fields!Project_Name.Value)> 1, "Red","White") but the issue is that I need the projects to be aggregated per user.
As you can see in the above report I have it grouped on User >> Project, and thats what I'd need to captcher in this single expression.
Is there any way to specify a group in an expression?
I've actually managed to do what I wanted via filtering on the tables group, and then hiding all the cells bar one in the table.

Although if anyone knows a way to group within an expression I would still be interested in knowing.
Thanks

SSRS dynamic data retrieval from another dataset

I want to get data(dynamic) according to the data in another dataset and put the result in textbox of the different dataset.
Right now, the data I get is static and I tried to use many expressions but no avail.
Problem lies in editing textbox expression. Since I am getting data from different dataset, it always ask me to have dataset aggregate function in my expression. If I specified the dataset from where I am getting the data, then, I cannot make it dynamic - and I get the undesired result.
And another way out that I attempted is merging the data sets into one rather than having multiples and use it only but this was unsuccessful.
How can I make it work to get the result that I want:
By the way, the textbox and the tables are in different scope. I have tried to combine them in one scope too.
Getting data from another dataset requires an aggregate function because it can't tell what data you want from that dataset so it forces you to aggregate it so it can return a specific value rather than an entire list of values.
I think what you are after is the Lookup function. Lookup allows you to look up a value from another dataset based on a value in the table's dataset. To give a simplistic example, let's say your table was of employees and you had a department id on that table and another dataset called "Departments" which had an id and a name. You could look up the department's name using the following expression:
=Lookup(Fields!DeptId.Value, Fields!Id.Value, Fields!Name.Value, "Departments")
This uses the current table's dataset's DeptId field to look up the Departments dataset by the Id field and return the Name field.
=Lookup(First(ReportItems!EmpID.Value),Fields!EmpID.Value,Fields!Dept.Value,"dataset_which_u_retrieve_the_data_from")
Problem solved!By using reportItems instead of Fields because I am retrieving one data only,not the whole field.
Thanks guys for helping me out.

Matching a field with rowgroup value

I'm converting some reports from Access to Oracle. Within Access you can use multiple headers but within SSRS you cannot.
I need to place (within the header of SSRS) a field which takes its value from the value of the current row group.
I know it's unnecessary however, those are the requirements I have been given within the spec.
Any idea how I would achieve this?
If I understand the requirements correctly, you can do something similar in SSRS. Some similar data to yours:
And a table based on this:
There is a group based on DepartmentName. This is set to page break for each group member.
Note that I have three group header rows: one to display the Department Name at the top of the page, one for the columns headers and one for spacing.
Since this is in the Group scope, it will always display the correct name:
