Right click on your section editor and edit. (On the left of the page).
Go to the details section and click on the formula button. (No tick required).
You will need to change the formula to suit your field but something like this should help.

If {yourfieldname} = false then true else false

This will remove the entire row where the value is false.
Basically, all this formula is saying is if the field value is false then suppress the row, otherwise show it.

Hope this helps

Actually, if you click SUPRESS under the details Section the formula would be:

{yourfieldname} = False

That's all that's necessary as it tells it to suppress if the field name is false.

Same as I'd do, although I'd go for:

Not {yourfieldname}
