access thread: Access97 printing problems


Message #1 by stan@4... on Wed, 29 May 2002 18:35:46
I?m trying to produce a report using Access 97. I am grouping my data by 
customer. The detail consists of invoice and payment transactions for each 
of the customers. Since some customers are paid in full, the group footer 
balance, under the "Balance" field is zero. "Balance" is a calculated 
field.

I want to suppress all the zero balance group footer balances along with 
the detail information associated with those records. I am only interested 
in printing the detail records and the group footer balances of those 
records that still have a balance other than zero. 

In the following example I do not need any of the AAA customer data since 
the balance is zero

           Customer	Date 	Invoice	  Payment    Balance 
           AAA	      01-May-02	1,500.00 	     1,500.00 
           AAA	      05-May-02	  500.00               500.00 
           AAA	      15-May-02		  2,000.00  (2,000.00)
	         Totals:	2,000.00  2,000.00       0.00 
				
           BBB	      01-May-02	1,500.00 	     1,500.00 
           BBB	      05-May-02	  500.00 	       500.00 
           BBB	      15-May-02	          1,000.00  (1,000.00)
	         Totals:	2,000.00  1,000.00   1,000.00 

Your help will be eternally appreciated if anyone can offer me a solution 
to this problem.

                   Thanks,
                   Stan

Why not base the report on a query that filters out any customers that have
a 0 balance.

Hi Stan, try putting the following code into the report footer  'on format'
property:

If [Balance Field] = 0 Then [Balance Field].Visible = False

Hope this helps,
Regards, Wesley Kendrick
