Title: Not showing blank columns..
Post by: Kenneth on 28 Oct 2011 07:55:25 AM
Hi talented board members  :)

If I run a report and all lines in a column are blank, then I don't wan't it shown.
How do I do that in a list report?

Thans in advance!!

Use a style variable on the columns and set box type to none if the requirement is met..

Should I use a boolean?

Crosstab or List properties, Suppression.
If you set the Box type to None, it will not show data if there is any.
