Suppress field based on suppressed field 1

[djj55]

Hello, I have a detail with several fields where I am suppressing one field if it is duplicated. Now, of the several other fields, I want to suppress two others if the field that has been checked for duplication is suppressed.

I do not program in Crystal every day, and have forgotten how to tell if a field is suppressed.

I know where to put the code but I just cannot remember the code to use.

Thank you for any pointers.

You will just need to put the same suppression formula in those fields as you did in the field being suppressed.

Thank you for the reply.
I used the "Suppress If Duplicated" check box on the "Common" tab of the format editor. Thus it determines the duplicates and I need to determine if it has been done.

Thanks

In format field->suppress, you can use a formula like this:

{table.field} = previous({table.field})

...where {table.field} is the field for which you checked "suppress if duplicated".

Thank you, I will try it tomorrow as I have another (VB.NET) priority at the moment.

Thank you that worked with a little tweek of adding in the group ID {id} = Previous{id} in my IF.
Thanks
