    Posted: 23 Apr 2010 at 11:21pm
I have created a crosstab with percentages - see below but only want to keep the Yes column - is this possible?
 
                                       Yes    No
Australia                          28%  73%
Austria                             60%  40%
Belgium                            41%  58%
 
etc.
 
Thanks
Janet

Janet,
 
You can modify the column only to show 'Yes' and ignore for 'No'.
 
Hope it help.

I can see how to hide a column in an ordinary report but not in a crosstab one - I am being very stupid?

Janet,

Sorry for misleading.
You can try these options:
 
1. You could always customize the crosstab style to have the font for fields in the summary column (headers, data, etc.) have the same color as the background making them invisible. Also set fontsize as small as possible to have a smaller 'empty' column
 
Or...
 
2. You can use conditional formatting for this.
There's a function GridRowColumnValue that can be used.
Example of use:
- Rightclick on the field(s) to be hidden -> 'Format field'
- Enter a formula like below for a conditional suppress or conditional formatting:
            GridRowColumnValue ("FIELD") like "VALUE"
Tip: you can choose FIELD from 'Functions' -> 'Formatting functions' -> 'Row or column names' in the function tree in the formula editor
 
 
 
hope it help.

Your second option has got me most of the way there thanks but I now see a column with no data in it. Is it possible to get rid of the column altogether? Thanks for your patience.

Sorry for late to reply.
 
You are right. It'll gives you a blank column.
 
Last thing that I can do is (maybe not suitable with you):
To highlight column 'No' with black colour.
 
In my test I create a formula 'xYes' and make it as column.
It will gives me 2 columns 'Yes' and 'No'.
Then I make a 'highlight' for column 'No' with formula:
if value xYes='No' then
- font colour = black
- background colour = black
 
And I make it samething with the result.
 
So for column 'No' it will gives me black column.
 
 
 
hope it help.
Or maybe someone else can give better idea/solutions for you.

Thanks Emir. It is one way round but really I wanted to hide the whole column. Perhaps it is not feasible within a crosstab.

i just try this steps and it might be fit with your issue.
sorry for being too much late to answer.
 
i've created a formula @yesno => if {tbl.acctype}=1 then "Y" else "N"
 
i made a crosstab with AccDesc as row and Yes/No as column.
and it count all transactions where the TypeTrx is '1'.
so it will print as:
                                       No      Yes
Accrued interest Dep        2         0
Fax Machines                    1         0
Car allowences                 0         1
Cash with Cashier            1         0
Bank Charges                   0         1
 
And i've modified my crosstab on for the 'Summarized field' from 'count of @yesno'  to  NthLargest of @yesno where N is '1'.
 
and it printed as:
                                       Yes
Accrued interest Dep        
Fax Machines                    
Car allowences                 Y
Cash with Cashier             
Bank Charges                   Y
 
 
 
hope it help for all.
