Color Property Formatting not working

Hi,

I have a problem with a conditional format of the Color property in a matrix report. When the value of the textbox is greater than 0, the color should be Red otherwise it should be Blue. This is implemented via an IIF statement and works perfectly in Preview in Visual Studio 2005.

When the report is deployed, the formatting appears to be ignored and all values are the default value of Black.

Anyone else experienced this problem and, if so, is there a workaround?

Thanks in advance

If I am not wrong, matrix conditional formatting is applied by default at the details. You may need to do scope it at the right level, e.g.; =Iif(SUM(<field name, "group name")>0, "Red", "Blue"). Also, download your deployed report definition from the Report Manager (General report properties) and make sure the expression is there.
