Blank DBText.

edited December 2004 in General
If a DBText is blank (ie no data in the field) how do I print todays date on
the report but not post anything to the table.

Cheers

    Hi Steve,

    I'm a bit unclear about what you would like to happen. If a certain DBText
    component is blank, would you like your entire report blank except for the
    date? If so, you could simply set the detailband's visible property to
    False. If you want to replace the blank DBText with the date, you could
    toggle the visibility of the DBText and the SystemVariable in the
    DetailBand.BeforePrint event based on what the record is.
