How to handle ERROR: subreport could not be shown of a subreport.

    I need to be able to handle a subreport that displays ERROR: subreport could not be shown. I have a main/parent report that has a column and passes a value to a parameter in a subreport. This subreport receives either a database or server parameter. Now, when the subreport failes to connect, I need to be able to handle the ERROR: subreport could not be shown on my main/parent report or in the subreport itself. "ERROR: subreport could not be shown" is a normal result but I am trying to find a way on how to handle it better by providing a different message, subreport or not display at all. Please help, any version of SSRS is fine because I have all of them.

    There is no way to capture RS errors if you are using SSRS report manager. On the other hand, if you are using the report viewer control, you may have a higher chance of capturing the errors by leveraging Try-Catch block, as far as i am aware of
