Conditional Statement

[l8kerfan]

I am trying to insert a picture when the word critical comes up in the report.

Is it possible in 8.5 to write a conditional statement to insert a picture file? Or do I need to upgrade to XI to do so?

Thanks.

Where are you trying to insert the picture? Is it always the same picture or is it based on data? Are you looking at a specific field for the word "Critical" or just "anywhere on the report"?

The easiest way to do this is to always have the picture and then to write a suppress formula for it that will suppress it if it "Critical" is not on the report.

A computer only does what you actually told it to do - not what you thought you told it to do.

I am trying to import the picture in the details. On the left most side of the each line when the importance is labeled "Critical". It is the same picture every time.

Do you have a sample suppress formula I could look at?

Thanks.

Insert the picture, then right click the picture and select fromat field->X2 next to Suppress and place:

{table.importance} <> "Critical"

Substituting your field for {table.importance}

-k
