Hide a column with a condition

Hi all,
We want to hide a column when a specific condition applies to the values of the cells in the column. For example: if all columns contain ‘-’ , the column should be hidden. Does anyone have an idea? We use BO 5.0 with WEBI 2.5.
Thanks, Tim Lauret

Hi Tim,
I think that the only think that could come close to what you want is using alerts, where the format will be blank with no borders.

Here’s a (maybe crazy) idea:
You might try to put the special column in question in its OWN BLOCK (a table) and then you can “hide” the column (entire block) in the Appearance tab of Table format… If theere are add’l columns after the one in question, they will have to be in a 3rd block… Mess around with the relative positioning to get it to look good –
