Column printing - Print in column 1 when fieldvalue is True and print in Column 2 when fieldvalue is

Kim Greve

Hi.

Is is posible to split a masterdata band up into two columns where Column 1 contains those rows where the fieldvalue = true and if fieldvalue = false

Or is there any other way to do this.

My problem is that I have a list of students i a schoolclass who should have there photograph taken.

When a student is photographed the field PhotoTaken is set to True. But some of the students isn't in school the day the class was photographed. And I would like to make a list of who's been photographed and whos not.

I can make a list with all the names in the dataset and show a checkbox with a checkmark if the student is photographed. But the readability of the list would be much better if I could split then into different colums.

use 2 memos in the band both will have the same datafield
in the obp event of the memoviews or the band write code to set their visible property.
ie
memo1.visible := (<datasetname."fieldname"> = true)
memo2.visible := (<datasetname."fieldname"> = false)

Hi gordk.

Thanks for the suggestion. Allmost there, but that's not exactly what I need.

This way I get the two columns but, when a string is printed in the left column, a blank line is printed in the right column and when a string is printed in the right column a blank line is printed in the left column.

I need the lines to lool like this:


Text in Left column........................Text in right column
Text in Left column........................Text in right column
Text in Left column........................Text in right column
Text in Left column........................Text in right column
Text in Left column........................Text in right column
Text in Left column........................Text in right column
Text in Left column........................Text in right column


Any other suggestions?
