Suppressing lines in group footer

[Kenneth]

Hello,

I am using Telerik reporting 2.5/VS2005/VB.net.

In a group footer, I want to conditionally suppress lines that have zero values.
Example:

Totals for conference 232322
800 callers        9
Local callers      5
Dialout callers    2
Total callers        16

If there are no Local callers, I want the following ....
Totals for conference 232322
800 callers        9
Dialout callers    2
Total callers        11

With no blanks for the rows, a total suppression of the lable and counter field.

Thanks, Ken

Hi Kenneth,

What you are trying to do is possible with hiding/moving of the desired processing items at runtime. You need to handle the ItemDataBound event of the section containing the items. When this event is fired, all items in the section are already bound which means that all expressions are evaluated. So you can check the result of the evaluation and hide the unnecessary items and move the necessary items to avoid gaps.

Find attached a sample report demonstrating the described approach.
Note: Pay attention to the line added in the constructor of the report so that the height of the group footer section fits based on the items in it.
 
I hope this information helps.

Best wishes,
Milen
