I am in report designer, have a data source - from a sql data base/connection - i can run through the data source wizard through test and see the data i need to use in this report.  I grab a textbox or a htmltextbox from the toolbox (Telerik Ajax Controls) - and place it on the report - then go to the Properties view, go down to the Value property, click it to bring up the Edit Expression and when I select Fields, the box where the data source fields should be says "No Data Source".  I have done many reports - and this box displays the data source fields just fine, and now it does not.  Where am i overlooking? 

Thanks in advance.

This text means that the report(parent table, crosstab or list) is not databound.
Do you have a DataSource(E.g. SqlDataSource1) in the Report?
Also, check the Report's(or table's etc.) DataSource property - it should be set to a DataSource(e,g, SqlDataSource1).
