    Posted: 27 May 2010 at 12:10pm
Hi Experts,
 
I am learning Crystal Reports XI.
 
I am working on a report that sometimes returns no data.
 
I need to show the headers on the report when no data is rerturned.
Can this be accomplished?
 
Please help.
 
TIA

depends on what is in the header.  I would think that any straight text and parameters would display, but obviously nothing related to data will display.

How about, showing text box with "No Data available for this report.."?
I know how to handle this in vb or ms access.
 
Thanks

Hi
 
Insert TextBox in Header with the text
"No Data available for this report.."?
*Right Click the TextBox
*Select Format Text
*Click X+2 formula button next to Suppress and enter the code below
  not isnull(count({Table.FieldName}))
 
Cheers
Rahul
