Hiding or Showing a Field Based on Data Values

This advanced option is used when you want to control the display of data based on the value of the data. For example, if the value of the data to be displayed in a field is null, you may wish to suppress it. There are many other formatting rules that can be applied based on the value contained in the data. For more information, see the Report Designer User Guide (Developer Express), located in the folder where you installed the Report Manager.
