We may want to make label for our textboxes: Category, Subcategory, and Product:
Prior to SQL Server Reporting Services 2008, you can only do that by creating two separate textboxes, so you can set separate font styles for each textbox.
SSRS 2008 and above have another property, called placeholder, that allows us to set different styles for literals and expressions within a single textbox. Let's do that:
="<B>Category:</B> " & Parameters!Category.Value(0)
You can also format the value in a textbox as a plain text by setting its format in the Placeholder Properties dialog box. In our example, we can make the expression bold by setting its Font property to Bold in the Font tab.
You can have multiple placeholders in a single textbox. All placeholders can be formatted individually.
Run the report to see the changes. We should now have Category:, Subcategory:, and Product: in bold.
