Hi All In a recent post I indicated that I've just moved into a new job (reporting) in a new organization and I've noticed some oddness that may or may not be significant. In the SQL that goes into the rdl files here, I've noticed that there is almost NEVER any commenting in the code. Furthermore, there is often a complete absence of easy-on-the-eye formatting, with everything jammed up against the left margin. Am I missing something here? These people have years of experience with SSRS whereas I have less than 12 months and so I'm wondering whether there are any gotchas that mean you should not comment the code in RDLs the way you would in a *.sql file. Regards GPO

I've put comments into SSRS queries before without any problems. And formatting does get retained. I suspect that the more complex queries are developed outside of SSRS before being copied in, or built up using the query designer, which may not be so well-behaved.

@ThomasRushton I have discovered a gotcha (in SSRS2000 at least). If you put something in a comment that can be interpreted as a parameter it looks like you'll throw an error message. I had: in an rdl and got the following message
Same thing occurs with
