empty memo

rbuser

Hello

i have a dbmemo that could be empty. Above the memo i placed a region.
The memo is shifted relative to the region. But if the memo is empty there
is still an empty line in my report. What could be the problem ?

Met vriendelijke groet, With kind regards,

Hi Frank,

Try toggling the visibility of the memo object based on the whether there is
data present and see if that removes the empty space you are seeing. Try
using the Band.BeforePrint event to check the field value and set the
DBMemo.Visible property accordingly.

i don't like coding in my reports. Isn't it possible to do it in the report
itself.

Using RB 10.06, I created a simple test report that contains a Region with
Label inside the region and an empty Memo below it. The memo is configure to
stretch and to shiftrelativeto the region. I do not notice any extra space
occupied by the memo. In the design layout the memo is one inch tall, but in
generation it collapses.
