     Posted: 19 Jun 2009 at 8:05am
Hello,
I need help with suppressing ‘Page Header Text Objects’ in Crystal XI. I have four groups and one Page Header with all 10 Text Objects available in my Groups; the issue is that I need to suppress certain Text Objects when I drill down to the Group Level – each Group has different Fields and Sums (I am currently displaying all available Fields in the Page Header but my users want the Page Header to follow the Group fields. I have done extensive research and it appears that since my objects are in the Page Header, they will be displayed with the Groups no matter how I drill. Is it possible for me to conditionally select the Text Objects and suppress them based on what is visible in my Groups? I have tried all the Crystal Syntax that I know (which is limited), but to no avail...
Please let me know if I can clarify more.
Thanks in advance..

Two options come to mind and you can use them together.

1. You can conditionally suppress a section based on the value of the group header field ... {table.group1field}="ABC"
2. You can also conitionally suppress items based on the drilldown value
drilldowngrouplevel=0
drilldowngrouplevel>0
drilldowngrouplevel<1
etc.
