    I assume this is in the context of creating custom Word report layouts.

    A report rely on a report dataset, which is a view on top of underlying tables, in the same way as UI pages are views on the tables. There could be a difference between these in naming, and there are unfortunately no documentation on this.

    A large percentage of the reports, and thus datasets, are optimized for RDLC layouts, which in some cases are not suited for Word layouts. The reports that are shipped with Word layouts out-of-the-box have been optimized for Word layouts.

    Which specific reports are you working on?

    Regards,
