Default calculate 2 textboxes
I'm not sure if anyone had try to calculate two textboxes in the detail section of the table, but this seems nearly impossible. It seems something so simple, but yet i can't figure out how.

For example I have a field in textbox1 and another in textbox2 in my table. All I want to do is ReportItems!textbox1.value + ReportItems!textbox2.value in textbox3 and get my result, but it only allows me to do this in header or footer. I know this can be done as easily in my SQL query, but it just annoys me not being able to do this.

Anyone got any ideas or know if RS 2005 will suppor this?

To clarify I can caculate it within same grouping but can't if in different grouping. For example Textbox1 is the detail for a dataset1 and textbox2 is another detail of another dataset, textbox3 where I want the result of both textbox1 and textbox2 to go to.

I've never had a problem with this. This capability is the same in SSRS 2000 and 2005. Here's an example... (create a new report, view code and replace all with the following):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Report xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/10/reportdefinition" xmlns:rd="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SQLServer/reporting/reportdesigner">
