  Hi,

  How can I use column Visibilty when I have mutilple values selected in my parameter.

  With normal visibility I use:

  =IIF(Parameters!xxxxx.value = "xxxx", true, false)

  I need the multi option available so my team can select the various options. The parameter this is on is text.

  Is there a way I can do this.

  Thank you

  Hi,

  There sure is. Multivalue parameters are arrays so the best way to do this is with IndexOf. e.g.

  =Array.IndexOf(Parameters!Param1.Value, "myvalue") > -1

  Array.IndexOf takes an array (your parameter) as the first argument and the value you want to look up as the second argument.

  It will return a 0-based index of the value if it exists in the array and -1 if it doesn't, which is why you use > -1 as the condition.

  HTH

  (also to save you from RSI, Parameters!xxxxx.value = "xxxx" would return true or false anyway, so you don't need the IIF)
