Looking for the SSRS Format expression codes I stumbled on this forum. The way I've got around it is by setting the format I want using the text box properties, then checking the format code it sets in the Properties window (bottom right hand corner one) under "Format", copy and paste this code into your Format expression with "" as wrappers and hay presto you get the format you desire!

In case someone stumbles upon this thread, I wrote a couple of articles that explain in detail how SSRS formatting works and what options are available. Here they are:
MCITP SQL Server 2008 (BI & DEV); MCTS SQL Server 2008 (BI, DEV & DBA)
