How to hide or not print a page on certain condition in .NET Reporting RDLC

Question

I have a report where I have got three groupings.I display details' rows on certain condition e.g. I created a filter in details group where Status = True and display their total in page footer. Whereas Status = False is used for other calculations on page.
So I cannot just modify the datasource query to only have rows where Status = True. All the rows are required.

Now my problem is if there are no rows where Status = True, then still the page gets generated with header, no rows and total = 0 in footer. I do not want to generate a page if there are no details displayed and the total = 0.

Is there a way we can control the conditional visibility of a page in RDLC reports?

Hi Azeeth,

You can do it in two ways. Either you can check your conditions in your code behind. If evrthing is ok, thn only display the report. Or else you can write expressions for the visibility of the tables which you want to hide incase of your situations. This will load the report viewer. But can hide the tables based on the condions.

For Tthe 2nd option.
Right click on the table.
Click the tab Visibility.
Click the radio button Expression.
Wirte the expression like =iif(condition, true, false)

Happy Coding
:)
