Report Model Expressions

I would like to define a new field in one of my Report Model entities, by
creating an expression that references some attributes of an entity related
by a role. Is this possible?
Also, is there a kludge I can use to handle the fact that there is no IIF
function available?

buggy. I need to combine 3 attributes. I was able to concatenate 2 of them
with a new field definition, and add the 3rd as a column expression. When I
tried to combine the 3 in the new field definitiion, I kept getting errors.
Also, I understand that one can inject one's own expression directly into
the rdl, so I am going to experiment with that as a means of getting IIF.
