How to emphasize a single word in a paragraph

Using RDL, I want to be able to emphasize (bold, underline, etc.) a word within a paragraph.

For example, to emit: "This is somevery importantfunctionality."

Can this be done?

Edmund

HI, Edmund:

You can first select the TextBox and you wiil see Font in the properties box. In the sublist, you can change the value of FontWeight to hightlight the text

Hi Edmund,

This is not possible(You can not apply different font/colour settings to text within same text box) . The only thing you (and what We are doing) can do is to use three different text boxes side by side and set the font weight of the middle box. So it will be something like this -

TextBox1 TextBox2 TextBox3

This is some very important functionality

Thanks Aj,

This is what I tought of doing, but the problem is that I have a long paragraph and I want to emphasize a single word inside it.

Anyhow, maybe I'll simply UPPERCASE this word to have it show up of the rest.

Thanks, Edmund

How to document the reports

OK, I guess you could always just whip up MS Word and write some
documentation about a report there, and be happy. But is there a more
structured way of doing it? Some application or plugin for Visual Studio
perhaps?
I'd like it to make a list of what reports are in my report solution, and
shared datasources. And then for each report, a list of datasources used,
maybe a list of datasets and a field for free text comments about "This
report uses a matrix, which displays subtotals on columns and rows."
Which in time can be searched through, so the next time I want a report with
a matrix with subtotals, I can check this one out for any clever tricks I
did to make it work. :)
Kaisa M. LindahlIf you willing to write some code, then it is possible.
Just parse your RDL file(s), analyze it and generate a doc.

how to do a word search?

I need to be able to search article in several tables in a MSSQL DB. What is the best way to do a word search? Are there and freebies out there or code examples?

Dave

Let's say you want to search for the word vb.net in multiple databases but want to return it as a single result set. You would do this

Select Article from Database1.OwnerOfTable1.Table1

WHERE Article like '%vb.net%'

UNION

Select Article from Database2.OwnerOfTable2.Table2

WHERE Article like '%vb.net%'

|||But how do you show the results?|||

Hi

You could use simple "like" clause to search different tables.

Full-Text search might be better in performance here is an article: Setting Up Full Text Search: A Step-by-step Guide
