MEASURE PROPERTIES

I have a report that has multiple measures coming from an OLAP data source.
Some of these measures are counts, some are % and some are $. How can I set
the format property for each. Thanks.

www.kerzner.comIn RS 2000, you have to set format codes on the textboxes where you show the
field values.
E.g. P0 for percentages without decimals, P2 for percentages with two
decimals, C for currency values, etc. More information on format codes is
available on MSDN:

NOTE: format codes only have an effect if the contents of the textbox is not
a string, but a numeric data type. You might need to use conversion
functions to make sure the value is a numeric value. Common conversion
functions are listed here:
