Referring to report items

Hi,
Is there any way to directly access a value contained in, for example, a
textbox?
If I were to create a textbox ('textbox1') with a default 'value' attribute
of "Hello World!", how would I make 'textbox2' get the value of 'textbox1'
and set its own 'value' to equal it?
I thought maybe it would be something like an expression in textbox2 along
the lines of: "=Controls!textbox1.Value"
Of course, I can see problems if controls aren't rendered etc, but I thought
I'd ask.
Thanks,
CraigTry =ReportItems!textbox1.Value

Referencing a total for a group inside that group?

Is there any way to do this' I am trying to display percentages of the total
along with the number of items. What I want to do would look something like
this.
Group header:
Detail X X/Sum of all X's
Group footer Sum of all X's
I can't seem to find a way to refer to the item in the footer inside the
group. Can this be done? If so how?
Thanks in advance.I found it!
What I had to do was:
Group header:
Detail X X/Sum(X,"Groupname")
Group footer Sum of all X's
In case anyone has the same problem.

Reference report items within a custom assembly?

How do I reference report items (such as textboxes, datasets, tables, etc...) from within a custom assembly?

Thanks!

You have pass them as paremeters (reference or by value) to the custom assembly method.
