Print When expression doesnt work

[Congor]

Hi,

 

ive got a subreport which has a repeating detail band

for table data. Ive put a print when expression

to that detail band that says

 

Code:

(($F{Remark} != null && ${Remark} != ""«») ?
 Boolean.TRUE : Boolean.FALSE

 

If there is no remark and it is not an

empty string print this row of the table, right?

 

But this doesnt work, the empty row got always printed.

 

Does anybody know whats wrong? Or how to say:

Dont print a table row if it is empty!

 

 

Thank in advance

First, there is an error in that code, you write ${Remark}, but it has to be a field or variable or parameter like the first one $F{Remark}.

 

there exists another property, removeLineWhenBlank. If you use IReport, you can check that property.

i didn't use subreports so far, so i don't know, if that works in that combination.

Thank you, i got it, I added a

"Print When" expression for

the whole detail band:

 

Code:

(($F{Remark} == null || 
$F{Remark}.equals(""«») || 
$F{Remark}.equals("''"«»)) ? 
Boolean.FALSE : 
Boolean.TRUE)
