Hi All,
I can't find a method of programmatically (via a formula) 'Hiding Block' within BOXI. This was available in Version 5. I use BOXI and Version 5.
Many of our reports written in Version 5 use extensive Page formatting formula within the 'Table Format\'Hide Block' facility.
Does BOXI have such functionality (I don't think so or maybe I'm blind)?
or has anyone derived a system of doing such?
I can see a possibility of hiding blocks by making all fields Null upon a given criteria. But that would mean writing a variable for all fields, and it would mean that to 'unhide' would involve re-programming all such variable. What a task.
