dynamically changing DataElementName property of text box

sql server reporting services: HELP!! I have a report that we dynamically change the order that the columns
appear based on user input. Further I want to control the DataElementName
of the textbox that will contain that field. I can not seem to find a way
to get access to this property using any type of code. I have tried passing
a ref to the textbox, but cant find the object that would be containing it.
So here is my question.

Can the DataElementName be dynamically set? Since I can change the order
of the columns I would have expected that I can also change the DataElementNames
that are on each of the textboxes. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks

Rich

You would have to Change the RDL... I don't think you can change the
dataelementname from the report itself..
