In SSRS, if the item that is referenced by a Toggle Item property is deleted, the report is broken and can only be fixed by editing in code.

Create a tablix with two levels of grouping. Set the visibility properties of the inner group as follows:
Visible = Hidden
Toggle item = <some textbox in the outer group header>

Now change the name of the text box

Try to render the report. It won't.

Change the visibility properties of the inner group so that the Toggle item points to the NEW textbx name. Render the report. It won't.

Open the report in Code. Search for any references to the OLD name of the text box.

You will find that there are MULTIPLE <ToggleItem> tags for the Inner Group.

Using the regular report editor, remove the Toggle Item property. Re-open the report in Code and search for "ToggleItem".

You will see that a <Toggle Item> still exists for this Group, but points to an object that no longer exists under that name.

I expect that when an object is gone, that all references to it dissapear with it.

i expect that when i set the Toggle Item property for a group, that if one already exists, that it would get overwritten, not duplicateed.
