Question: I can hide objects on forms by changing their Visible property; however, this doesn't work for report objects. Can't I hide field objects or text objects on my reports?

Answer: Of course you can, though you have to be slightly tricky. Simply change thier Font.Color properties to White. Since most printers use plain, white paper, this has the same effect. After all, it's pretty hard to read white text on a white background.

Please note that you may need to experiment with the actual colors if you're printing reports on colored paper. This should only affect certain types of (expensive) color printers. Experiment as needed.

Also, it's a good idea to preview your report. In certain combinations, your white text may appear on screen. If that happens, consider moving the object behind one that obscures the area. Also, resize the object so that it doesn't use much display space.
