Green Bar Matrix Display Difference? VS2005 Vs Web View

Hello:

I've created a simple greenbar matrix using the tips suggested by Chris Hays. In Visual Studio the row totals display with the correct alternating background color, but when viewing the report via the web, the report does not render any background color for the totals?

I've attached a rough example (I trimmed out a couple of colums, so don't try to add up the column values displayed with the total value). As you can see, the values for the Total column do not get shaded, even though in VS2005 it shows the Total column shading the rows correctly.

I know how to explicitly set the various properties of the totals value field (i.e, click on the little green triangle to set the properties of totals), but I can't figure out how to make it dynamic. Trying to reference ReportItems!ColorTextbox.value generates scope error.s

Thanks in advance for help on this one.
