I have a field in a report that I am supressing if there is no data
for that field...
It seems ok...
Is there a way to adjust the report so that the space left for that field on the report is used by whatever follows instead of having a big gap in its place?
Thanks in advance for responding
hi,
it is not possible for one field space.if particular line is empty then the gap will be adjusted.
Make the fieldheight 0 ( or almost 0) then switch the "can grow" option to on. If there is no data the height will be 0 and people won't notice it, but if there is data the field will grow as much as needen.
I did as u said but it's good at design time...
When I run it does grow as needed.. that's good
but is there any way to make whatever follows to move up
accordingly..?
Thanks
This may work for you.
Place a Text field on your report.
Move the fields in question "into" the Text field.
Adjust the properties of the Text field to suit your needs.
Are these fields in the same section? You can add additional sections. For example you can make a DetailsA, DetailsB etc. Place some fields in each one of these sections. Then in the Format Section dialog box, check the UnderLay Following Section property (for the "higher" section).
