Q: sub-report; show or not show

Hello,
I have a sub-report and I need to show it if the data available otherwise
non of the data should be show including headers and title, how can I do this?
Thanks,Use iif statements on the visibility in properties of each object you want
hidden.
e.g.
=iif(fields!data1.value = 0 or fields!data1.value = "" or fields!data1.value
is system.dbNull,true, false)
says if the data is zero, an empty string or null then don't show it, else
show it.
hope that helps.

Thanks for your help. Can I do this on the sub-report to show it or hide it
instead of going each item in sub-report and using iif?
Letâ's say I have a parameter, if it is true, show sub-report, if not hide
it. Is this possible?

master report, go to properties and visibility and stick the expression in
the box.
=iif(parameters!name.value = "true",false, true)
if parameter is true then show else don't show.
