I need to change the background color in my report for employees hours over 50, however this is a toggled item within a bigger project hours.
How would I phrase the IIF statement to reflect?

something like below
IIF(Fields!emphours.value > 50,"red","Black")

i assume field name is emphours. you need replace it with actual field. also the above has to be set for background color property

This works only to highlight all the fields.
These fields I am using this IIF statement is in a column group. Basically the employee is toggled to open up the indiviual hours, and I only want the indiv hours to be highlighted when over 50. But when not expanded the hours are the project total hours and not to be highlighted.

Sorry to get back with you so late...but unfortunately I cannot as it has some confidential and sensative information within. It made all backgrounds red and not sure why...even the under 50. In a nutsell, I would like to see this report with total project hours, then toggle the employee within each project. When I toggle it will indicate the total hours by each employee with that project for the next year (column group). I would then like to see everyone who have worked over 50 hours to be highlighted red (the hours only)
Hope this makes sense. Thanks for your help.

so are you doing sum inside expression? then you need to use same expression for condition check inside background color property.
