  Hi folks,
  
  i have a groupheader in flexreport with 3 subsections.
  
  I like to hide subsections 1 and 2 if grouppage() > 1 and have try to insert vbscript like this:

  if grouppage() > 1 then 
  GroupHeader.subsection(1).visible = false
  else
  GroupHeader.subsection(1).visible = true
  endif
  

  I test this code on different events (onPage, onGroupHeader_print, onGroupHeaderFormat) but nothing works.
  
  Thanks in advance for any idea to solve this.
  
  Niels

  p.s.
  
  I wondering that code like ```
  
  textfield.text = grouppage()

  Hi folks,
  
  i found a workaroud for this topic.
  
  Instead using the grouppage() function i placed a hidden textfield (CustomerIDSave.) to the first section of the groupheader and use following vbscript on Group_Header.onFormat

  if CustomerIDSave.Text <> "" & CustomerID then 
    CustomerIDSave.Text = "" & CustomerID 
    Group_Header.SubSections(2).Visible = true
  Else
    Group_Header.SubSections(2).Visible = False
  endif
  

  Greatings

  Hello,

  The workaround you use is correct as the GroupPage(s) finally update the values once the report has completely rendered. So, using a hidden TextField is a good option to hide subsections conditionally.
