supress detail section

Is there a way to just supress a detail section based on a field in the detail section? I know through the section expert you can suppress blank sections, but can I somehow add a formula so that if fieldA = "something" that the section suppresses as well?
Thanks!

I believe you just need to hit the [x-2] button right next to the suppress option in your section expert, and add a simple formula ...

table.field = whatever

that will suppress any detail section where that formula is true.

Tom is right. I have used this several times and have been court out by the "keep together" option which at times can hide all the details....or was it groups.... either way it's good to be aware of it

I feel sorry for people who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning that's as good as the're going to feel all day!
