Calculated Variable - setting to blank when zero

rbuser

Hi,

When I was using a sum variable, there was an option to have a blank if the
result is zero. However in a calculated variable there is no option for
this. What is the best way to achieve this, DisplayFormat maybe?

Thanks

Alex

In the variable's OnCalc event, you can set its visibility.
if Value = 0 then

Variable1.Visible := False

else

Variable1.Visible := True;


We usually recommend that the visibility of components be set in the band's
BeforePrint event, but in this case, the OnCalc would be the only timing in
which you could set the visibility for the variable.
