Deleting Items Programmatically

[Michael Love]

Hi there.

I have a report where I have a picture and a few textboxes in the report header. These items are only needed when the report is for a certain type of company. So, what I want to do check to see if it is that certain type of company, then delete/remove/hide those items programmatically. Is this possible? If so, where is the best place to do this?

I achieved the same result by checking for the condition in my group header data bound handler, then making the items not visible as such:

        void groupHeaderSection1_ItemDataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            long contractorId = (long)this.ReportParameters["ContractorId"].Value;
            long operatorId = (long)this.ReportParameters["OperatorId"].Value;

            // If this is an Operator employee, make all contractor items invisible
            if (contractorId == operatorId)
            {
                this.pbContractor.Visible = false;
                this.tbContractorLabel.Visible = false;
                this.tbContractorName.Visible = false;
                this.tbContractorAddress.Visible = false;
                this.tbContractorCityStateZip.Visible = false;
                this.tbContractorPhone.Visible = false;
            }
        }
