Rocky,
You are right, filtering can be done in other ways to suppress detail lines.
In some cases, however, we would like to suppress subtotal lines also. This looks like it is going to be a bit more complicated.
Thanks for your help.
Brad

Now why do you suppose they had to make the Format events not to fire when
using Report View?
If course if you were trying to suppress certain detail lines, doesn't the
filtering features of Report View allow that?

Rocky,
Yes, the Format Event fires if we don't use Report View.
The catch is that we are using features of Report View that we don't want to
give up.

So if you left that out:
DoCmd.OpenReport "Report100",,,, acViewPreview
Just like we do in A2003, would the Format event fire?

Rocky,
Here is more info about Report View...
Access 2007 includes a new view for reports called Report view. You get a
static snapshot of your data with the traditional Print Preview, but with
the new Report view, you can dynamically filter the data and drill down to
print only the information you need. Just right-click inside a control and
select various filtering options from a contextual shortcut menu.

Oh. 2007. All bets are off. Actually not familiar with acViewReport
parameter - must be new for 2007? What's it mean?

Rocky,
Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.
It appears that for some reason the Format event is not getting initiated
when I use "acViewReport".
For a quick test, I simply put a MSGBOX in the Format event and opened the
report. I did not receive any message.
I am using 2007, in case that makes a difference.
Thanks again,
Brad

Brad:
I use the Format event of the Detail section all the time to do this.
Preview or Print shouldn't matter.
I use:
If Nz(Me.fldMWCIInventoryQuantity) = 0 And Nz(Me.Allocation) = 0 Then
Me.MoveLayout = False
Me.NextRecord = True
Me.PrintSection = False
End If
Sub in your own conditions on the If. This was cribbed directly from the
Detail_Format event module. But it works in the Format event of any
section.

We are using this command to open a Report DoCmd.OpenReport "Report100",
acViewReport, "", "", acNormal
I would like to suppress some detail lines and subtotals based on the value
of another field.
The "On Format" event apparently does not get initiated with acViewReport
The "On Paint" event does get initiated and can detect the conditions when
we would like to suppress a line by looking at the value of a field.
The catch is that when I try to use
Me.ABC.Visible = False
I receive the following
Error 32521 - You can't change the value of this property in the OnPaint
event
There is probably an easy way to do this. I must be missing something.
Thanks,
Brad
