1 answer:

I would expect that you could place an expression that results in True or False in the Visibility property of the Group1 group to do what you need

The propeties can be set by right clicking:

and then editing

Hi Jonathan, But there is no option for "Column Visibility" in matrix.but in a table,we can right click on the whole column and make the "Column Visibility" property to 'Hide'.But in matrix ,that optiion is not active.

@kasunsm.kt I do not understand what is the reason behind using a matrix and then try to hide the Row Group column? It would have make sense to show or hide the Row Group (a row) entirely.

But If you still want that, then Showing Or Hiding the textbox of Row Group could only be the option you have (Text Box Properties -> Visibility -> Show Or Hide). This will leave the column space in there but would not show the Row Group.

Hi, 'Amount','Name' columns are added dynamically...there can be more...thats why I used a matrix...

I want to hide the 'Group1' column.because when client view the report,someone don't need that column to be shown...then I should give them the ability to hide that column.First of all I have to check whether it can be done or not...thats why I'm trying to hide that column as a example...
