I am a beginner and learning on my own, While playing around with existing reports. I came across this expression

=Cstr(Choose(12,Split(Cstr(ReportItems!HeaderValue.Value),Chr(177))))

I am able to understand the most of the functions but what is 12 in here similarly in following expression

=Cstr(Choose(26,Split(Cstr(ReportItems!HeaderValue.Value),Chr(177))))

is it related to columns of the table, if that is the case how will i know which number is mapping to which column name?

I tried to map the columns value of report to the main table ID, it is not same? What am i missing

For a brief description, the n-th field in the group of defined fields, such as the following example, (8,1) is WhseShptHeader_PostingDate.

=Code.SetData(Cstr(Fields!CompanyInfo_Name.Value) + Chr(177) +
Cstr(Fields!WhseShptHeader_ShptDate.Value) + Chr(177) +
Cstr(Fields!WhseShptHeader_No.Value) + Chr(177) +
Cstr(Fields!WhseShptHeader_ShipmentNo.Value) + Chr(177) +
Cstr(Fields!WhseShptHeader_LocName.Value) + Chr(177) +
Cstr(Fields!SalesHeader_SellToCustName.Value) + Chr(177) +
Cstr(Fields!SalesHeader_ShipToAddr.Value) + Chr(177) +
Cstr(Fields!WhseShptHeader_PostingDate.Value) + Chr(177) +

Hi,

The Choose function uses the first parameter as the index of one of the remaining function parameters. The first argument must be an integer.

You can refer to the blog about RDLC report functions:

Best Regards,
