    Hi
    you cannot place stretched memos one above the other in a band!
    But you can attach a child band abd set memos to stretched in that band.

    That's useful.

    How would I suppress the child band on a per record basis? I don't want it to pad out my report when it contains no data.

    NB: I populate my report using OnGetValue, if that has a bearing on the above.

    Thanks

    you can retrieve and test value in obp of master, test the value of var and set visible property of child band.

    >>d test value in obp of master

    obp? = OnBeforePrint?

    I use OnGetValue for all my data, can this still be used in OnBeforePrint? e.g.

    if ( [extranotes] ??? .IsEmpty() )
    bandChild.Visible = false;

    Yes
    When fr encounters a variable it checks to see what it must do
    see notes in docs on programming.
    if <condition exprssion> true then child1.visible := false else child1,visible := true;
    or in obp event of child
    visible := [expression that equates to true or false];
    regards ;)
