  Hi joba!
  
  I'm in the same situation. Did you manage it. If I changed the group condition to <line> div 4 instead of fieldname the report not worked properly. It split one group's data into four rows with the same group name.

  leave your group condition as to what it should be
  add code to your masterdataband
  typical
  procedure Band4OnBeforePrint(Sender: TfrxComponent);
  begin
  Band4.visible := (<line> < 5); // value is one highter than what you want display.
  end;

  Thanks gordk!
  
  But how can I do that at runtime. Should I add before print event with script? Can I do that with fastreport shipped with delphi xe2? Thx in advance.

  I tried that at runtime this way:
  Report.ScriptText.Clear;
  Report.ScriptText.Add('procedure MasterData1OnBeforePrint(Sender: TfrxComponent);');
  Report.ScriptText.Add('begin');
  Report.ScriptText.Add(' MasterData1.Visible := (<line> < 4);');
  Report.ScriptText.Add('end;');
  
  Report.ScriptText.Add('begin');
  Report.ScriptText.Add(' MasterData1.OnBeforePrint :='+''''+'MasterData1OnBeforePrint'+''''+';');
  Report.ScriptText.Add('end.');
  
  But it didnt' work.

  AFAIK the version shipped with xe2 does not have scripting.
