I need help in supressing a text (X) conditionally under three columns.
Exp:
Talble1.field1, table1.field2
Test values
field1=Fname+Lname1
field2=Low, Med, High
Now when

This is how the report should look for say three individuals.

Low Med High
X
X
X
I just need to show X under each column where value exists for each individual.
Hope this helps in understanding this question.

It's best to show example data and expected output. Your post appears incomplete also, as it says "Now when" without anything afterwards.

A simple means would be to create 3 formulas such as:

If {table.field2} = "Low" then
"X"
else
""

If {table.field2} = "Med" then
"X"
else
""

If {table.field2} = "High" then
"X"
else
""

Place each in the details.

If you then need counts, use Running Totals to count {table.field2} with the same criteria in the evaluate use a formula, except use:

{table.field2} = "Low"

etc.
