HIDE BLANK PAGE

rbuser

Hi!

I have a report (rb Enterprise 10.07 + delphi 7)to list customer-invoices, 1
page for invoice_num. I hide all items and subreport when, by example, the
agent of the invoice is 1. The problem is that there are blank pages that I
want to hide.

I want add source in the report to hide this pages.

How can the report hide the blank pages (1,4,6)
Example
INVOICE NUM AGENT NUM PAGE NUM STATE
1 1 1
BLANK
2 2 2
DATA
3 2 3
DATA
4 1 4
BLANK
5 3 5
DATA
6 1 6
BALNK

Hello,

For future reference, please use your real name when posting to these
newsgroups.

How are you separating each invoice into separate pages? If for instance
you are using groups with the NewPage property set to True, you would
temporarily need to set this to False for the invoices that do not contain
any data.

Hi!

I have a master data (mainData) and many details (detaildata1, detaildata2,
detaildata3, detaildata4,etc). When detaildata4.reference is 'HIDE', I hide
all the component in the main report page (dbText, label, subreport, etc)
with source in the report

DBDetailData4ReferenceONgetTExt(text:string)
begin
if (text = 'HIDE') then
begin
detail1.visible:= false;
.....
.....
end
else
begin
detail1.visible:= true;
end
end;

it's no depends of the group report, when DBDetailData4Reference "hide" all
the "items" the page report is "empty" but it print blank-page
is it possible hide the blank-pages?

Thanks

Hi!

Ok! but, please again... could you answer the question about hide blank
pages?

Thanks!

The OnGet text most likely fires too late to change the actual space taken
by the detail band. I would suggest that you try setting the PrintHeight of
the DetailBand to phDynamic and check the value of your datafield (and hide
the components) in the DetailBand.BeforePrint event or
DetailBand.BeforeGenerate event.
