Hi @rp@n,

Probably you can just put empty expression for the column or remove it completely.

Hi @rp@n,

It's correct.

Split "Returns a zero-based, one-dimensional array containing a specified number of substrings."

RE: hfunction in Visual Studio to separate string

hi Sergei,

it's work for me

=Split(Fields!Dimension.Value, "-").GetValue(1) //First value

=Split(Fields!Dimension.Value, "-").GetValue(2) //Second

=Split(Fields!Dimension.Value, "-").GetValue(3)

means here the

value = "1222502-00000023-001-001";

1222502 = 0

00000023 = 1

001 = 2

001 = 3

So, based on the above expression it's pick the value 1 position value after "-" i.e 00000023

rite?

Hi @rp@n,

Have you checked StackOverflow article with examples?

=Split(Fields!Dimension.Value, "-").GetValue(0) //First value

=Split(Fields!Dimension.Value, "-").GetValue(1) //Second

=Split(Fields!Dimension.Value, "-").GetValue(2)

Hi @rp@n,

There is 'Split' function available in SSRS expressions.

You can use the x++ string functions to achieve that: docs.microsoft.com/.../xpp-string-run-time-functions

You can use strFind to find a specific character from a string (or from part of a string).

And you can use subStr to copy a part of a string to another string.

You need three pieces of code:

a: All characters after the first "-" and before the second "-"

b: All characters after the second "-" and before the third "-"

c: All characters after the third "-"
