Shrink/Hide Empty Fields on a Group Foooter

Hi All,
I am printing 2 amount fields on a group footer. The group header/footer works fine for me since I can print the data for each transaction no and page break it.
Now, I am printing separate amount totals per transaction placed on the group footer:

Amt1 will not be displayed when it's Null or = 0
Amt2 the overall total will always be displayed.

Q1: How can I make Amt 1 appear/hide?
Q2: How can I make Amt2 shift up when Amt 1 is hidden? (case when amt1 is null or =0)

I've tried some options of Dock, Can shrink properties and it's not helpful..
Any suggestions please?

Thanks.

You put Amt in is sepate FooterBand and add this to the beforePrintEvent of the footerband;

Code: Select all

this.FooterBandAmt1.Enabled = Amt1 != 0 && Amt1 != null

Yep. Thanks Marco, your suggestion worked

I've added another group header/footer pair and used the BeforePrintEvent condition.
