having problems with details selection

i have a packing slip report with 2 detail sections. can i select which details section to display/print as the line item based on whether the line item is a stock item (orderitem.type) =1 or a miscellaneous item (orderitem.type) = 3 ?? i don't want to use the suppress method, it needs to be one section or the other. thanksWhat's wrong with conditionally suppressing each detail sub-section as required? Would seem to be exactly what you want.

Handling nulls in matrix sub totals

I have a matrix where I am using the inscope function to return different
calculations depending on which group it is in (ie the detail is just the
value and the sub totals are sum(values)).
In for the subtotal group I have used:
iif(isnothing(sum(Fields!CurrentCount.Value)), 0,
sum(Fields!CurrentCount.Value)
But this is still returning blanks where there are no values in the group to
sum together.
Can anyone suggest how to get around this issue as it ?
TIA
Andrewyou might try iif(sum(Fields!CurrentCount.Value = nothing)

expression then you need to add a perenthesis onto the end. I tried to
recreate your problem and I get a 0. Weird
