>>>>He meant "do not print when blank" checkbox, which I actually don't remember as a property of a control (but then I've already developed a deja vu amnesia - there are things I forgot multiple times) but perhaps as a setting on whole bands... Never mind, that would also work. Except now it's becoming complicated - there's a conditional expression in both values, there's this "skip when blank" applied to two controls... just having proper PrintWhen makes it far simpler, IMO.

>>>Yes, I meant "do not print when blank"
>>>Funny how memory works. Mine works when I get away from the computer. Just like this question, how to print some lines in Bold Font. I thought about it a lot and could not find a solution. Hence I wrote a question here.
>>>Then, I went to bed. Immediately, I remembered another report where I wanted negative numbers to be printed in Red font. And someone, here on UT, suggested that I create two textbox controls, one in black and one in red. And use only one (using IIF() based on the value. So, the solution to use two textbox controls came to me right away.
>>>Conclusion: we need to get away from the computer more :)

>>I've a similar memory retrieval problem but where the "search result" ends up becoming available days, weeks, months or even years after...

>This is why there are tons of books on "memory tricks" :) Very lucrative business since most people get old and many of them lose memory :)

Na, we don't loose memory. Just the access path is missing. :)
