Hi,
I have a Group Header containing some TextFields representing the columns Titles about the details data. I'm trying to suppress these TextFields of the details section is void... I've tried to use the EvaluateAfter function, but it doesn' t work...
Can anyone help me?
Ty in advance... :)
 
Try this:

Right Click the gray area to the left of the group header in question and choose Format Section.
In the Right hand portion of the dialog box that opens, click the X+2 button next to Suppress (No Drill Down).
Add the following line to the Formula Editor:

IsNull({table.field})

Replace table.field with a database field on your report that you would expect to be there under "normal" conditions.
Save and Close.
Test.

Yeah! TY!...
Perhaps it's due to the fact that i have 2 tables but they are not linked together. I took table2.field, where instead i select & group my records based on table1.field (it's a subreport).
