I wondering the best way to hide details of the reports based on the count.
My query has select top(1000), so only the top 1000 items are returned.  If I get 1000, I display a message saying please refine your parameters.
How should I set the visibility to hide the details and the groups.  I tried to set the binding of visibility to the expression
IIF( count(fields.field1) < 1000, true, false) , but that's not going to get a total count of the items.  What's a good way to do this?  Is there a total result set count?

I guess, you can always run another query asking the SQL server about the count
SELECT Count (*) FROM ... WHERE ... and then use it in the report
