Access fields in the Fields collection by index

Is there anyway to access the fields collection using an index?
e.g,. =Fileds(0).Value ?
I want to create a calculated field based on two columns (position 1 and 2)
in a matrix report, but their column names change based on the dates as
paramaters.
Any ideas?On May 3, 11:06 am, Eric <E...@.discussions.microsoft.com> wrote:

You should be able to access the position 1 column via: =Min(Fields!
FieldThatIsPivoted.Value). The second positioned column will be tricky
to capture though. Otherwise, you should be able to handle this in the
query/stored procedure that sources the report (via while loop or
cursor). Hope this helps.
