    Posted: 09 Nov 2007 at 10:02am
I know this is a dumb question but I have two tables linked together by timesheetItemID. One table has all of the hours a person worked and the other table has all of the comments associated with the hours.
 
My problem is I want to show all of the hours even if those hours do not have a comment attached.
 
I tried using this formula but it only shows hours with a comment
 
if {VP_TOTALS.TIMESHEETID} <> {VP_COMMENTS.TIMESHEETID} then "No Comment"
else {VP_COMMENTS.TIMESHEETID}
 
Any help would be appreciated

On the Links tab, set the relationship to show all records from VP_TOTALS (a left outer join). Then in your formula, test if the Comment field is null and if so, show "No Comment", else display the comment field. 
If IsNull({VP_Comments.Comment}) Then
    "No Comment"
Else
    {VP_COmments.Comment};
