Eliminate the blank spaces
Please help. Before I post this message I already read many posts that have
the same problem. I have set all my text boxes property Can Shrink and Can Crow to "yes". Make sure my text boxes are not over lapping each other. I also tried to put [name of field]Null in the filter property. however, the blank spaces still appear on my report. If you have other solutions to this problem. Please help me. Thank you.

Are you also stating there are no controls (text boxes, lines, labels,...)
to the left or right of the expected shrinking text box and the value in the text box is Null? Try display the border of the text box and see if it shrinks as expected. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP -- "qkimchi via AccessMonster.com" u15272@uwe wrote in message news:5735b4a7bab30@uwe...

To help yourself diagnose just what is happening, add background colors,
borders, shading, or some such to the text boxes. You can remove these once the problem is solved. "qkimchi via AccessMonster.com" u15272@uwe wrote in message news:5735b4a7bab30@uwe...

Would you mind sharing your report's field names? This looks like it might
be fairly normalized if the Year and category values are not field names. Maybe you should share your report's record source SQL view. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "qkimchi via AccessMonster.com" u15272@uwe wrote in message news:57371b1b48340@uwe... sorry but I am kind of confuse at this point.

I take back my comments about "fairly normalized". Wow, have you considered
redoing your table structure? Or maybe this is the result of a crosstab query. Either way, you might want to redo your expression. Your =IIf([txtFinancialTotal]=0,"",[txtmedicaltotal]) will never shrink if txtMedicalTotal is not null. I would work hard on normalizing prior to spending much time on anything else. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP -- "qkimchi via AccessMonster.com" u15272@uwe wrote in message news:573754cc23640@uwe...

The solution is not in the property settings of the report, you need to
change the properties of the field in the database table. Open the table in the design view. Look at the "General" tab and set "Allow Zero Length" to "Yes." Then go back to your report and the field will be skipped if there is no value. Hope this helps. BBMCM "qkimchi via AccessMonster.com" wrote: Please help.
