Hi All,

I have a report (using CR XI) that uses conditional suppression.

Simple stuff, it prints out a few data values if at least one of the values is not null but prints a row of text (made up of the appropriate number of “.00”s in the right places) if all data values for the line are null.

In print preview on the screen it works perfectly but when I print it out, all the zeroes disappear and all that is left is the dot!

In case anyone is wondering why I doing it this way at all and not simply unselecting the “suppress when zero” checkbox it is because this report is a subreport of another report and if all the data values are null in the sub then the main just has a blank patch (rather than zeroes).

Anyway, any ideas re how to get the printer to print out what the preview says it will?

Thanks,

HywelC

Hello again,

I tried to export the report as a PDF and that works perfectly too. The problem just seems to be with the printer...very odd.

Did you set the page setup correctly?
