Hmmm. I’ll give that a shot. Thanks again, Bruce From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of jan johansen Sent: Tuesday, February 11, 2014 9:29 AM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Report Region Refuses to Disappear Bruce, I think I've run into something like this before using a report variable. I think it's a chicken and egg thing. When does a report variable get evaluated? You may want to move it from a report variable to a before generate eep.

The additional requirement is to release the vertical space, so as to not leave wide gaps between visible lines. Thanks much.

Want these NULL regions to disappear/collapse. Background: A Break Header contains Region with Component ID: [ ppRegionLevel4 ]. The Region contains DBLabel control: [ glCodeNUM4 ], which displays correct data values. The goal is to have the Region and Break Header disappear/collapse whenever [ glCodeNUM4 ] is NULL. To this end, the [ Before Generate Custom EEP ] for the Break Header is coded: IF vglCodeNUM4 IS NULL THEN PROPERTY ppRegionLevel4 VISIBLE FALSE ELSE PROPERTY ppRegionLevel4 VISIBLE TRUE ENDIF RETURN Report Variable [ vglCodeNUM4 ] is defined as: 2 : TEXT : H4 : vglCodeNUM4 = (glCodeNUM4) What am I missing here?
