Hi,

I was wondering if it is posible to have a textbox that is visible when viewed through a viewer but is hidden if/when the report is printed off.

Hello PJB,

Generally there is no out of the box solution to hide a textbox when printing. However depending on the viewer in use (Web, WinForms, Silverlight or WPF Report Viewer) we could suggest a workaround based on having two identical reports one with the textbox and one without it and within your application to execute the report without the textbox while printing. 

In order to achieve this you have to make your own custom UI for the printing button and hide the viewers print button. For example if you are using the Web Report Viewer you may find interesting the How to print report on client machine without showing the report help article.
