I want to add alternate row shading to make it easier to the user to read, but the syntax I tried below doesn't return any shading. Let me just say that I googled this and it was the syntax it said to use.

=iif(RowNumber(Nothing) Mod 2, "Sliver", "White")

Does anyone know how to make it work?

thx,

John

do you have these colors available in reporting services? check color property's available values.

Try this

=iif(RowNumber(Nothing) mod 2=1,"Gainsboro","Transparent")
