Hi
after an upgrade from BIRT 2_2_1_1 to BIRT 2_6_2 I have a report with a table cell "missing", that is the data in the cell does not show on the report. The same data is visible in another cell in the same table.
This works fine in older BIRT, but I am now stuck on why it doesn't show in 2_6_2. Can u help?

I include an example report which shows the problem.

In your table, select the second column and click the visibility tab.
You are using the following expression to hide the column.

row["customerInfoTextCol2"]==null || row["customerInfoTextCol2"].equals("")

Since this column (customerInfoTextCol2 ) does not exist it hides the
column.

ouch - clumsy of me... a case of copy-paste syndrome. It's a bit strange though, because when I look in the visibility tab there is no expression. I can only see it in the xml source and remove it from there.
I'll get back with a new example of the original problem.

Your answer turned out to be helpful although in another way than expected...
The original report had the same problem as the example report, that is - no statement on the visibility tab, but when searching the xml source I found a visibility statement.
The original problem was that the statement was true for the first element in my table, which made the column invisible. Then it didn't matter that the second element should have made the statement false, the data for the second element wouldn't show. By removing the visibility problem completely the problem was solved.

Thanx for helping!
