Creating A Report Control (1 Viewer)

[sxchopr]

Hi Everyone,

is it possible to create a new report control specifically a Label, using the no data property on the report? I want to create a generic code which puts a label in a report which has no data. The message I'm getting is that the report needs to be in design view to create a report control. Any help would be appreciated.

It's true. The report has to be in design mode in order to add a control to it.

You could have an invisible control ("No data" label) that you make visible at some point. Don't know if this is what you are after.

Hope this helps,

Thanks Peter, but I was after creating a generic code, which I could just call from the report without having to do anything else.
