Conditional print suppression ?

[Former Member]

I have placed a link style subreport in a group header section. I would like for the subreport's caption to not appear when the report is printed. Can this be done, and if so, what would the condition name (ie: drilldowngrouplevel, et. al.) be in the suppression formula?

I have not seen anything that would allow suppression a field/section when printing

Hi

The report that you view is exactly what gets sent to the printer. There isn't a feature to suppress only when sent to printer.

The only suggestion I have for you would be to add a parameter to your report and use it to conditionally suppress the fields that you don't want visible in your printouts.

For example, create a Boolean parameter named "Hide Fields for Printing". Then add a conditional formula to the Suppress option of each field that you want to suppress in printouts. The conditional formula would be something like:

{?Hide Fields for Printing}

When you want to see the values when viewing on the screen the parameter would need to be set to False.

When you want to suppress the values when printing the report the parameter would need to be set to True.
