Hi,

I am trying to format my text as follows in a single text box(SSRS2005)

test1: value1
testing: value2
test3: value3


My textbox.value = space(5) + "test1:" + space(1) + "value1" + VBCRLF +space(2) + "testing:" + space(1) + "value2" + VBCRLF + space(5) + "test3:" + space(1) + "value3"

VBCRLF works fine..
But the spaces are not getting displayed.
I tried using functions like Padleft,Space,StdUp, but could not get that output.

Thanx

But the spaces are not getting displayed

This worked for me. I substituted parameter values for your "value1". Here is my string:

=space(5)+"Value1:"+space(1)+Parameters!OutputType.Value+VBCRLF+space(5)+"Value2:"+space(1)+Parameters!OutputType.Value

If you Value1 is a field or part of dataset, remove the double quotes for starters.
