On my main report I have several subreports that are being pulled from different tables. If a subreport has no data, I wish that the subreports below them "move up" in order to save printing space. Please see attachement. I know how to save the space with fields (can shrink) but not subreports themselves. Each of the boxes (in the lower half of the report) you see are actually memo fields and are individual subreports.

You'll note that this report is actually 2 pages long. There are subsequent subreports on page two.

Thank you in advance for any help with this (everyone of my reports take two pages if the last subreport has any data).

Me.MySubreport.Visible=Me.MySubreport.HasData

Rich,

I can't tell you how much I appreciate your reply...but where do I put this and how. I'm sorry no VB skills.

I truly thank you for you help.

In the OnDetail format event of the main report

I'm using 2003 and see no OnDetail. Have On Open, Close, Activate, Deactivate, No Data, Page, & Error. Do I implement just as you have written, or do I change the name of "MySubreport"?

Change the name of the subreport to that of your own, click the detail section of your main report to get the OnDetail format option

I take it you refer to the detail header. I see the On Format (for Section Detail) but I have several subreports. I can't understand how to implement this. In the code?

Me.MySubreport1.Visible=Me.MySubreport1.HasData
Me.MySubreport2.Visible=Me.MySubreport2.HasData
etc etc

Rich,

Still can't find OnDetail. I see On Fomat...is this it? Do I place what you are telling me as an event and then code builder? This sure turned out to be all about nothing.
