No need to define the variable. In your print command just use a where
clause.
Example: print reportname order by columname1 whe columnname2 is not null
and your report should print fine.
Also I would examine the need for a breakpoint. Unless you're printing one
record a page or need sub-totals, there is no need for the breakpoint.

Good luck.

Hello everyone:

I have a table that contains three rows.  There is a column in the table
that allows me to enter an expiration date for any row, thus allowing me to
eliminate it from selections etc. if so desired.  One of the rows currently
has an expiration date the other two rows do not.

I have a report that is connected to said table.  I have also defined a
variable in the reoport as follows:

vCourse = ActNickName in Activities whe ActID = ActID and ExpireDate is NULL

The variable is in the display seciton of the report and a break is set on
Id number.

The reports prints the correct two rows from the table that have no
expiration date and a blank row for the row that does have the expiration
date.  Is there a way to keep the report from printing the blank row?

I realize that I can project another temp table with only rows that have no
expiration date and then run the report from that table but I was wondering
if there was a way to "automatically closeup" the blank spaces on the
report.  I also know that I might be able to do something like that with the
label generator.  Any idea's ?
