Hi Folks,

I have inherited a report which just has a body block, and its all I have to work with!
For info it is called as a sub report from another report.

In the body block the first line has some labels and the second line aligned under each label is a field containing the data for that label.

The result of the above is that I get a label line then a data line then a label line then data line and so on it doesnt look nice and is confusing and messy on large volumes of data.

To tidy it up a bit I want to suppress the labels after the very first label line has been output which I have managed by making the labels on every subsequent label line invisible, the down side is that it leaves a blank line where the labels would have been had I not made them invisible.

How do I suppress this blank line in the report, basically ignore outputting it ?

Why don't you put the labels in the page header instead of the body?

I don't know if it works but if you need to keep the labels in the body make them invisible and change the Height Property.
