Hello.

my problem is

that I have 2 titles in my report.
I put them in a group.

now I have create a parameterfield.

I want that I can select the title, which will be shown

for example in the Selection I select TITLEONE

and then I get the TITLEONE in my report

if I select TITLETWO
and then I get the TITLETWO AND a special Textfield which is in the Group.

how can I realize this??


thanks for help
 
How about giving us more details, like the exact names of the database or formule fields involved, and exactly what you what the titles to look like based on exaactly what parameters you select.

Either in Format Section, or Format Field - depending on what you want to suppress - click the [X+2] button next to Suppress.

In the formula editor window, type
Code:
{?YourParameter} = 'YourSecondValue'
for your first title, and repeat the process with the alternative value for the second title.

Can I say.

for example the group

-----------------------
[Title] for Cars
(the cars who were listed are........)
-----------------------

When first title was selected
then the group will show
-----------------------
  • for Cars
    (the cars who were listed are ........)
    -----------------------

    when the second title was selected
    then the group will show
    -----------------------
    [Part] for Cars
    -----------------------
    without the infotext (the cars.....)


 
You could have a formula field that tests the parameter and shows one title or the other. Or says 'invalid parameter' if a wrong choice was made.

Create as many formula fields as you need, and place them where you need them.
