How to Ensure that a Textbox Will Stay Alinged with a Matrix in SSRS 2008?

Hello All,
I am very frustrated with this situation that I have at the moment regarding a matrix.  My matrix is laid out and styled the way that I like and it works, however I need to add a title above it and i've chosen to do this with a separate textbox. 
The problem I now have is that when I run the report, the textbox may or may not be the same length as the matrix. 
What method can I use to ensure that my matrix will always line-up correctly with my textbox?
In a very general way (screenshots are stupidly not allowed in this forum), here is what I am looking for:
                           WEEKLY SELL-OUT
Row Group  Column title 1    Column title 2   Column title 3
WEEKLY SELL-OUT is the title which I need.  I've put a rectangle around the matrix and tried aligning them, but each time the data is refreshed the matrix may or may not be aligned with the WEEKLY SELL-OUT textbox.
I've also tried putting a title within the left corner texbox within the matrix itself, however this is ugly and not what I want.  I need it to be centered with the entire matrix and not just withing the textbox. Doing it this way does this to my matrix:
WEEKLY SELL-OUT
Row Group  Column title 1    Column title 2   Column title 3
Again this is not what I want.  I want it to be centered and using the textboxes inside the matrix does not allow me to do that.  Also, i'm not able to merge cells within a row in a matrix, only within a column.
Surely there MUST be a way to do this properly - can someone help?

Seemed like a good idea -- to embed the matrix inside the lower cell of a 1-column, 2-row table -- but I couldn't get it to work.  When attempting preview, it resulted in an error -- "The tablix 'matrix1' has a detail member
with inner members.  Detail members can only contain static inner members."  The matrix works fine outside of the table.  I'm not sure if properties of the matrix or table could be adjusted to remedy the error.  The 'CanGrow'
property for the table is set to 'True'.
UPDATE:  It is critical to put the matrix in the
Header cell, not the
Details cell.  Delete the Details row (cell).  Create a new header row above the existing Header that contains the matrix in order to add a title and center it.

  • How to ensure that the bookmarks toolbar stays sisplayed at all times.

    In the current version of Firefox, the bookmarks toolbar is hidden by default. Is there a way of canging this?
    Perhaps by tweaking a setting in 'about:config'?
    It was suggested that I replace the 'localstore.rdf' file.... But this makes no difference at all, correction, it works for a couple of times and then reverts to a 'Hidden' toolbar again.
    Help!
    Any other suggestions please?
    Kind regards

  • How to ensure that if i have an email it shows up as unread and also notifies me

    I have set up the notification for emails in iphone6 but it seems it is not working. In the older version of the iphone it came up above the email icon showing that how many mails have been recd. and unread. How to ensure that this works.

    Sign into hotmail on your computer and there should be a tab for mobile or device settings. In there you can tell hotmail to listen to what you tell it to do on your mobile device.
    I will say I've seen minimal functionality, although it doesn't bother me too much since my hotmail is largely unused.

    My guess is that you previously synced the iPhone with a different computer in the past. You will probably want to set up Home Sharing.

    With a PDF Dynamic form using show/hide actions, how to ensure that when the completed form is saved, closed and re-opened, the form still show the fields as before it was closed?
    I have developed a form with fields hidden by default, that become visible based on box ticked or radio button selections.
    My problem is that, when I close the form and re-open it, it comes back to it's default presentation, regardless of the information already recorded in the form (including in the now hidden fields.
    How to correct that
    Thanks in advance for any hint you can provide.

    I've had the same problem. This solved it...
    Go to the "Form properties..." in the File-menu. Select "Run-time" to the left and in the box "Scripting" Preserve scripting changes to form when saved: choose Automatically (Script-based state changes are saved locally in an insecure fashion. This option cannot be used for certified forms).
    Hope it works for you to...

  • I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

    I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
    Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

    1
    Close all iWork applications
    2
    Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
    3
    empty the trash
    4
    shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
    let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    5
    Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

  • How to ensure that latest version of Flex application is loaded

    Hello experts
    I have a bit of dilemma here. I am working on application which is going to be used at various locations (globally).
    Level of technical knowledge of users varies quite a lot so do operating systems authorizations of the PCs they are working on (various companies with different level of security).
    At the moment I am facing issue where some users are still using older release of the Flex application even after refresh and deletion of temporary internet files.
    Is there any way to ensure (using some AS code or Flex project settings) that only latest versions of SWF files are loaded (not the one from buffer/cache)?
    Regards
    Michael

    BTW, I have added following line to the HTML template/wrapper:
    <META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">
    but it is still picking up older version of SWF file on certain PCs. It does read latest HTML (wrapper) file though. Seems that caching is only enabled for either certain file types or files exceeding certain size.
    I have decided to do something a bit daft (or cheeky, depends how you look at it) as temporary solution and rename 2 main files (main SWF and HTML) to something like:
    Application_name_ver_XYZ.*
    It can be done in couple of minutes after release build has been exported (no need to update project itself). That way I can fool browser so it will pick up latest version (since its different file with different name).
    Main application consists of 10+ modules and some of them are compiled into separate SWF files. I am loading them inside application using ModuleLoader component. I have set parameter cachePolicy to "off" as I am not going to rename all these modules each time I am releasing new version of application.
    The end result is that main application is refreshed but all modules that are being loaded are picked up from cache (old versions).
    So as a last resort I have decided to change folder name of my application. That way all the files (main app and modules) are considered as new files since location of all of them has changed. It is just a workaround, it does work but it carries certain risks. If user will use old link application will still load (older version) and then consequences can be catastrophic (even corruption of data).
    Has anyone experienced same issues?
    I know these are more browser/network issues but how do I deal with them. Some of these people cant ask IT for support (for various reasons). Is there anything else I can do to ensure that users across the board will use latest version of application?
    Regards
    Michael

  • EnsureVisible in TreeView: how to ensure that horiz. scrollbar is aligned left

    Hi,
    I have a tree view with eg. following nodes
    # People
    |
    +--# Custumers
    |
    +-- # Anne Charles, Hillroad 14, 7766 MyTown, My Country
    |
    +-- # Steve Jones, Forestroad 12, 7766 MyTown, My Country
    With the command
    Me.treeViewM.Nodes(0).Nodes(0).Nodes(0).EnsureVisible()
    I can ensure that "Anne Charles" is visible within the treeview. My problem is: If the treeview is not wide enough to show the complete node text of this node, the horizontal scroll bar is automatically moved to the right so that node structure shown left from the "A" in the text "Anne Charles" is not visible any more. Thus
    Anne Charles, Hillroad 14, 7766 MyTown, My Country
    Steve Jones, Forestroad 12, 7766 MyTown, My Country
    is visible and the node structure is hidden.
    Question: How can I ensure that the node "Anne Charles" is visible and also the horizontal scrollbar is aligned to the left, which means that the node structure left from the text is still visible?
    Best wishes

    Look at following code project also: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tree/NoScrollingTree.aspx
    You need PInvoke.
    At Top
    Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
    And Following Functtion 
        Private Const WM_HSCROLL As Integer = 276
        Private Const SB_LEFT As Integer = 6
        <DllImport("user32.dll")> _
        Private Shared Function SendMessage(ByVal hWnd As IntPtr, ByVal wMsg As Integer, ByVal wParam As Integer, ByVal lParam As Integer) As Integer
        End Function
    After Ensure Visible call the above Function
        Me.treeViewM.Nodes(0).Nodes(0).Nodes(0).EnsureVisible()
            SendMessage(treeViewM.Handle, WM_HSCROLL, SB_LEFT, 0)

  • Dual band router that ipad will stay connected with

    Is there a dual band router that ipad3 will stay connected to

    My son-in-law uses a Netgear model WNDR3700-100NAS Dual Band Router. I just bought one but it hasn't arrived yet. This router is compatible with the iPad: 802.11a/b/g/n, supports 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, supports WPA2 encryption.
    I have ATT UVerse, but the UVerse router range is quite low. I bought a wifi repeater, which increases the range somewhat. The output from the UVerse will be plugged in to the Netgear router.

  • Why am I not informed that another program will be downloaded with Adobe update

    why an I not informed that Adobe update will install another program with in,such as McAfee.. I don't want programs that i don't choose myself

    oh, you may be right.
    when you go to the flash player web page, Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player you'll see the mcafee option.  but if you allow auto-updates, you may not see that.
    i never allow flash player to auto-update for that reason (and because i am a flash developer and use a different flash player version to debug web-based swfs).  you have limited (or no) control over what happens when you allow flash player to auto-update.
    i hate that and sympathize with the plight you went through.  it happened to me once many years ago.  i learned to never allow that again. 
    hopefully, you were able to uninstall mcafee and not have any residual problem-causing detritus left on your system.

  • I need to install iWork 9 on my new mac that has Pages 5.2 that will not open my older Pages docs. How do I ensure that the 9 will open them instead of the 5.2

    I need to install iWork 9 on my new iMac that currently has Pages 5.2 which will not open my older Pages docs. I do not want the 5.2 to interfere with the opening of my docs in the 9. How do I ensure this without removing the 5.2 (that might improve with age)? If I rename the 5.2 for now, will that work? Thank you for any assistance.

    Just install iWork '09 and make sure you update it to the latest v4.3:

    You can run both Pages '09 and Pages 5.2 but will need to right click on your files to open them with the right version, because all Pages files have the same file extension: .pages.
