Hidding some group header/footers depending on data being printed

edited March 2004 in General
Hi.

It's possible to show/hide a group header/footer while generating a
report? I have a hierarchical structure that will be used for grouping.
I looks like a master/detail report, where de master is the hierarchical
table. So I have this data (as a example):

Table Class (Code, Description, Classification):
1 Test 01
2 Other 01.001
3 More one 01.002
4 Another child 01.002.001
5 New 02
6 Another test 02.001

Table Itens (Code, Description, Class_Code):
1 Test 2
2 Blue 4
3 Red 6
4 XX 4

What I need to print is something like this:
Group: 1
SubGroup: 2
Item 1 Test
Total SG 2
SubGroup: 3
SubGroup: 4
Item 2 Blue
Item 4 XX
Total SG 4
Total SG 3
Total G1

Group: 5
SubGroup: 6
Item 3 Red
Total SG 6
Total G5

Any idea?

Thanks
Jonh D.

    Hi,

    Although it is not recommended to make changes to a report during
    generation, you can definitely try setting some of your header band's
    visibility property to False based on the values of some calculations or
    data records.
