How to format the subtotals of a Reporting Services matrix differently, using InScope - Rob Farley : "Here's the scenario. Your SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) report has a matrix, showing the sales of each salesperson per year. You put conditional formatting in place so that cells in the matrix that have sales over 1000000 are in a different colour - which is done by putting a formula in the property 'color', like =iif(me.value > 1000000, 'Red', 'Black')" But then you put subtotals into your matrix (right-clicking on the column/row field to get the option), and you find that all the subtotals are being coloured Red, because together, they add up to more than 1000000. And this becomes a problem, because you can't put different formatting on the subtotal as you have on the rest of the inner cells of the matrix. That is, without having a slightly trickier formula.

In this tip I am going to start my brief discussion with OPENQUERY and OPENROWSET table functions, its limitation and how the new EXEC AT command overcomes them. Solution SQL Server 2005 introduces an enhancement to the EXEC command to allow dynamic SQL execution on the linked server. The new EXEC AT command addresses the above limitations of OPENQUERY and OPENROWSET. EXEC AT specifies that command_string is executed against linked_server_name and results, if any, are returned to the client.  The linked_server_name must refer to an existing linked server definition ...
