    I want to expose indicators based on a specific text, like "True" for example.

    If the value in the textbox is "True", then show green indicator, else show red indicator.

    How do I fill the Indicators Properties.

    It is possible to use indicators this way?

    Thanks

    You can use an expression for the indicator value to return a value in the right range for your indicator.

    E.g. =Iif(Fields!fld.Value = "True",75,20)

    would give you green for true or red for other values if you were using traffic lights with the default indicator states.

    Thanks

    It is possible to base a Traffic Light indicator comparing values from textboxes?

    For example:

    I have to compare these 2 columns:

    %Realized (the data to this cell is based in an expression - Textbox1)

    %Planned (the data to this cell is based in an expression - Textbox2)

    If Textbox1 > Textbox2 - Green

    If Textbox1 < Textbox2 - Red

    If textBox1 = Textbox2 - Yellow

    Any solution?

    Thanks

    Best Regards

    I don't think you can use ReportItems (e.g. your textboxes) in an indicator expression.

    You should be able to use your expressions directly depending on their scope. If they are for each row I'd create calculated fields for them and use these.

    If they are summaries for groups then you can use the summary expressions directly in the indicator expression.

    As before indicators work on percentage/numeric values so you logic needs to return a value of this type.
