Hide Percent sign when using Percent Format
In my SSRS 2008 R2 report table, I have a text box that contains the following conditional logic for number formatting:
=SWITCH
(
Fields!Format6.value = "Int", "#,0;(#,0)",
Fields!Format6.value = "Percent", "0%",
Fields!Format6.Value = "Percent2Decimal","0.00%",
Fields!Format6.value = "Decimal","0.00;(0.00)"
)
The problem is that if Fields!Format6.value = "Percent2Decimal", the table becomes too wide, and I encounter problems when rendering the report to PDF. The table splits, and the last two columns appear on an additional page.
Is there any way that I can hide the "%" symbol when return the number back to the text box as a two decimal percentage? Do I need to consider some other way of controlling the size of the text box when using this format?
Thank you for your help.

If you make a Left() of your cell, using the index of the '.' + 2 as length?
I don't have anything to test it right now, but it might work!

I reached an agreement with the client to use one decimal place. I haven't tried using LEFT with this, but I imagine it would only work with strings. I tried to Cstr the cell, but that didn't work.
