I have a report which has columns A and B
Column A is grouped and Column B has numeric values
A total(sum of column B) is made for each group(column A)
My question is once a total is zero for a group
entire group should not be displayed in the report.

Column A    Column B
-----------------------
A           -10
       -20
       +30
total        0
-----------------------
B         +10
       -20
       +5
total        -5
-----------------------

only group B should be displayed in the report..

Thanks in adv for any ideas...

Hi,

Retrieving then hiding these rows seems like an inefficient way to achieve your requirement. It would be more efficient and far easier to code a summary filter with the expression [Column B] > 0 and with the Scope setting defined as Column A.
