Could someone tell me how to make labels invisible if value of the field is blank, in a query or Report.

Sam
 
Ok.. I have to put the cursor on the Source and then right click on it and I get the option "insert Script Block -> Client"
Now i am getting error " Object doesn't support this property or method " txtN2.value"

When I tried If (IsNull(txtN2)) then...
I am getting error on second line " Object doesn't support this property or method 'l5.style'



Sam
 
Bottom line: why not using a snapshot instead of a DAP if the issue is only to publish a report ?
 
In your original post, you have L5.style.visibility, now your getting an error on l5?
When you type in L5. does a dropdown appear immediately after you type the period? If it doesn't, then it's not recognizing the control name. Sure you spelled everything correctly?
Like I said, I'm at a disavantage because I don't have your version.

PHV - in a snapshot you can't control the visibility of the controls. Anyway, while at this point it would be easier, I would like to figure out why it works on my part, but not his. The trouble is I can't reproduce his work on my version of Access. But, bottom line, it's his choice.

Isn't a snapshot just a view of the result of a report ?
The OP said that the report printed well ..
 
Yes drop down appears immediately. Also I changed the name of the label. But all in vain.

PHV - I think I see our differences. You're looking at what he's creating as a regular report. So just produce the report in Access then change that to a STATIC html. I'm seeing it having a form functionality, going record to record. Thus some fields will have data, then they may not on the next record. I guess it's because I've always started from DAP's.
So, I assumed something wrong (wouldn't be the first time).
Samusa - is this an Access report you're translating to a DAP or did you originally create this as a DAP?
If you're exporting a report, they become a STATIC html web page. You can't dynamically change them like a "form". Can you create a DAP from the recordsource of your report?
At least, I can now hide fields.
 
Yes it is Access Report that I converted into DAP. But I am getting same error on a different DAP as well.

Sam
 
You are the Man!, Yes it worked. I created new page and pulled 2 fields from table on the page. It works fine. Now I have to figure out why it did not work on other page.

Sam
 
Ok .. I got it working. I put the Sub....End Sub script immediately after
<SCRIPT language=vbscript for=MSODSC event=current(info)>
<!--
FixEnabling
-->
</SCRIPT>

It did not generate any error.

Thank you fneily for your time and help

4 days, it's St. Paddy's Day, PHV recognized the static attribute, it's Friday, you figured the coding sequence in your version. Let's all have a drink tonight. Well, I am.
 
Yup.. I still need some help from you on creating Logon page so that users can access these DAP's with proper user name and passwords.

Have a nice weekend!

fneily: It works perfect when DataPageSize is 1. Since I need to change DataPageSize to "All" for generating reports but it pops up script error when I select "All".Any idea???
