Hello Michael,
We assume that you experience this only when previewing the report and this is caused by Visual Studio caching the report preview. If you make a change to the designer itself (i.e. move a textbox by a pixel) or run the report in your actual application, it should show the correct value for the expression.
Sincerely yours,
Steve

So let me get this straight. If I make a change in a user function I order to see the results I have to do the following.
1. Make my code change in the user function
2. Make some sort of designer change
3. Build the dll
4. Open up my application
5. Build and test
This makes for a very long desing cycle. Also be advised that it is not just user functions. Even changing the designer to point to one of your built in functions you have to do the whole process again. There has to be a better way.

Hello Michael,
I guess you're changing the behavior of your user defined function and the report keeps displaying the previous result. As of now the reporting engine uses some expression caching mechanism that most probably is the reason for the wrong behavior you're talking about. We consider this an issue and logged it in our bug tracking system. It will be fixed in the upcoming service pack.
Your Telerik points have been updated for bringing this to our attention.
Best wishes,
