Hide or Shrink a detail row ?

  • Hi-

    I have a basic report with one group and 2 detail lines.  The second line was added to display LONG text like a person's "Title".   My probelm is, if the person doesn't have a title, I want to make the row invisible - make its height zero, toggle its visibility, make is "shrink" - whatever way works.

    Unfortunately I've made the "CanShrink" proprty True but the row still appears even though there is no "Title" for a person.  How can I hide this detail row if there is no data ?

    Thanks - B

  • Ok Finally....

    There is no visible "Expression" editor for the "Hidden" attribute of the parent "Visibility" attribute for a table row - BUT - you can edit one anyway...

    So, I set the tablerow visibility property based on the "is nothing" proprty of my textbox in question and voila - it works...

    So, this is in the "Hidden" part of the properties...

    =iif(Fields!MySometimesEmptyField.Value Is Nothing, true, false)

    HTH someone - B
