Changing text box property in report during runtime

NR

Actually, I want to dynamically change the fontbold property of a control (textbox) in a report during runtime.

In form it does work out, but I am not sure whether it works with reports.

If its possible , how can it be done.


Thanks in advance.

I think it is not allowed. Only way is create two controls and set the visibility of appropriate one.

Actually, you need to create 2 sections. 1 with normal font, 1 with bold and then decide which section to show.

Another way would be to create two controls (one normal, one bold) and put them on top of each other. Set the source expression of each to different variables; make sure one has the value you want to display and the other is blank.
