The factory's closing for two weeks and I want to create a sign that tells this to the clients on all the reports, how can I do this? I'm guessing I'd have to use a sub-report but I'd like the sign to disappear after the closing period is over and I'd also like to find the easiest way to get it to appear in all the reports. Your help is much appreciated.

this is a very vague question but in general if you are asking about adding text to a report header consider
using a formula with an if then
place it into a report header b
make report header b suppress if empty
for the formula use the dates of closure as compared to today
e.g.
if datediff('d',CloseEndDate,today)>0 then 'Closing message here' else ''

Thanks! Do I have to create the text with the formula in every report?

I don't really understand your question.
Is it a sub report?
Are you bursting grouped data to recipients?

No problem, I'll rephrase. I don't really know if I have to use a subreport or not. My need is as follows: the enterprise would like to display an add on all of its reports saying that the factory's closing from june 6th to june 12th. I'd like that add to dissapear on june 13th, cause the closing period will be over by then. How can I do that? Thanks a lot for your help. Best regards.
