Hi there, i will try to be short.

I'm asking me if someone somewhere already do a process of this kind.

If i have example a date field with (example : Openfilesondate : (dd.mm.yyyy)),

i try to get a way to show less date if no date input.

The only way to do that is it, like by a script when i choose my layout, i say if date on openfilesondate, go to layout with date, and if not go to layout with no date.

There any way to make some field not apeared or juste be gray if another field got a value?

I appreciate.

Thanks

Do you want the field to Not appear on the layout if the "other" field is not filled in?

You can do this with a relationship and a few fields...

DataField

DateField

cDataField = not isempty(DataField)

iOne= 1

Relationship

cDateField = iOne

then create a portal on the layout 1 row high.

place the date field inside the portal but make sure the field is not related it should not have the (::DateField)

On records where Data Field is empty you won't be able to see the Date field. 0r any other fields/buttons you place inside the portal.
