Hiding bands dynamically

rbuser

Hello,

I want to be able to suppress a detail band based on the data driving the
band. I tried putting ppDetailBand1.Visible := False in the BeforePrint and
BeforeGenerate events, then setting Visible back to True in the AfterPrint
and/or BeforeGenerate for the next iteration, but it seems to stop
generating the band from that point forward.

What's the best way to hide a detail band without affecting the remaining
bands?

Thanks,

Mike Van Nuland

Hi Mike,

Instead of waiting for the AfterPrint event to set the detail band's
visibility back to True, just toggle the visibility inside the BeforePrint.
Something like...

if Report.DataPipeline['Worthless'] then
ppDetailBand1.Visible := False
else
ppDetailBand1.Visible := True;
