Hide row if element is empty [message #953451]

Hi all,

I have this expression in an element in the detail row of my table:

if(dataSetRow["INSTR_NAME"] == null)
{
'hide row'
}
else
{
dataSetRow["INSTR_NAME"]
}

However instead of displaying the string "hide row" I need it to actually hide the row.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks

Select the detail row, by clicking on the detail row tab to the left of the table, when the table is selected. Then, go to the visibility section of the property editor. Here, you can enter an expression like:

row["INSTR_NAME") == null

If this condition return true, the row will be hidden, if it return false, it will show. Hope this helps.
