Make textobject bold based on condition in crystal report

Question

In my crystal report, there are two columns Name and Amount . What i want is if Amount is blank then Name must be bold otherwise it will be in regular font. I don't know how to write formula for this condition. any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

You should be able to:

• Right-click the "Name" field
• Select "Format Object"
• Click the formula button next to "Style"

If your Amount field is a number (probably is, but you used the phrase "is blank"), then compare it to 0 instead of an empty string.

Answer 2

Try this

if Isnull(<<Databsefield Amount>>)
then crBold
Else crRegular
