Print "No records for the current month." for Blank Report

[OldGrayMare]

I am using Crystal 11.

I want to print "No records for the current month." if a report for a month has no records that match criteria.

What I tried (below) is not working:
Formula 1 (@RecordCount)
If Count({HPD_Help_Desk.Incident Number})= 0
Then
{@NoRecordsText}

Formula 2 (@NoRecordsText)
"No records for the current month."

How can I get the text, "No records for the current month." to print in the body of a blank report?

Thank you so much,

OldGrayMare

Go to file->report options and make sure that "suppress printing if no records" is NOT checked. Also make sure that you do not have "convert nulls to default values" checked. Then use a formula like this in the report header:

if isnull({HPD_Help_Desk.Incident Number}) Then
"No records for the current month."

In my continuing search for the answer to my problem, I got it solved, so please disregard my request unless you have a better or easier method than this:

I created another Page Header section and conditionally suppressed it this way:

IsNull ({HPD_Help_Desk.Incident Number}) = False

THANK YOU, LB! I do like your way better.
