Using AND in Switch Expression in SSRS 2008

Below is my code I use in the Color Expression in SSRS 2008 to change the color of the text.

=Switch(Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value > 500, "Red",
Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value < 250, "White")

How would I say if the DistanceFromOutlet.Value > 250 and < 500 it must be Orange?

So Red text for more than 500.

Orange text for betweeen 250 and 500.

And White text for less than 250.

The Switch function is evaluated from left to right so you can do this:

=Switch(Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value <=250, "White", Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value <= 500, "Orange", Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value > 500, "Red")

What I suspect is that you tried to do this which does not work:

Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value > 250 and < 500

That would work if you changed it to be explicit:

Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value > 250 and Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value < 500

Nest two IIfs:

=IIf(Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value > 500, "Red", IIf(Fields!DistanceFromOutlet.Value < 250, "White", "Orange"))
