Reporting Services - hide table column based upon report parameter

Question

I have a report in Reporting Services 2005, and I want to hide or show a single table column based upon a report parameter. Does anyone have any idea how to do that?

Answer 1

Set the Visibility for the column to an expression which will return true or false. This property can be found on in the Visibility tab on a TextBox for example.

Click the radio option for Expression and then your expression might look like

=Parameters!ShowColumn.Value
