I've been working with SSRS and Matrix style reports for a while so I'm pretty familiar with matrix reports, but today, a user pointed out something that I seems really wierd. I wanted to post a picture of the report, but I am not able to so I will try to describe in words.
This particular reports has 2 row groups and 1 column group (not that I think this is of any significance). In one of the row groups (happens to be the child row group), I have a bunch of values. Normally, when the report renders, you get a distinct list of the values that are in that group. But for some odd reason, I have certain members of that group that are repeating.
Does my question make sense? Using a simple example, it's like I have a month group, and rather than showing the 12 months (Jan through Dec), it's rendering more than 12, where certain months are repeated. I've checked to make sure there isn't any padded white space or anything like that in these repeating members.
Has anyone seen this behavior and have an idea what might be causing this?
EDIT: This may be worth noting. I have the group members formatted to be centered in their cells. When I look closely at how these repeating members are rendered, one of them is shifted slightly over to one side. So, for some reason, SSRS maybe "seeing" them as two different members.
