Replacing column with other column when Data is blank in Crystal report

Please use like below -

You have to write a crystal report formula-

if isnull({col1}) then {col2} 
else 
{col2}

Edited my last comment.

From the image, it seems you want to suppress the field Weight itself when the value is blank and shift other 5 fields to left is it?
If so, you need to set the x position dynamically.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Yes,

I want to shift the columns to the left when the Weight column is blank or null.

If the weight column is not null then it will display normally. without any column shifting.

I have one boolean field for viewing or suppressing weight column namely, IsWeightVisible

will it be useful?

Not sure what is that used for.
Is it the one which give blank data or some data for Weight column? If yes, then you can use that instead of the field to check for blank.
If not, you need to use the field which gives the output for Weight column.

Basically, we try to check whether the value for your Weight column is blank or not.

Yes, IsWeightVisible provides the condition whether the weight is available or not.

So if I create same fields like washing, drying, etc and set the suppressing property to True or False then it will work!

I suppose.

You are not setting any suppressing, you will be writing X position shift formula for each of those  5 fields.

Seems it's confusing for you? Share the report with some sample data. Unless there are additional calculations, it shouldn't take much time.

Kindly find the report on this path: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1BarTF3CSqMKyqWp15AGyXdp_AePSO0lS

Report Name : Report2

Secondly, I have implemented the suppressing format, because the formula you explained I didn't understood

I don't see the information you shared via screenshot in the report you attached. Is it the one you are working or is there any suppression? Can you share with same sample data or further details of section in which those details used?

Apologies.

Hi,
This is what I see when I open your report.
Can you tell me which field will have blank data?

Are the other 5 columns the same data types as the weight field?

If so you could do it with formulas

If IsWeightVisible  then
   {Weight Field}
Else
   {Washing field}

Similarly for the other 4 columns.

Suppress the last column with the IsWeightVisible  parameter

If you view the report, under field washing there is a field Weight

I am still trying to figure out the Weight you said under Washing.

As per your original requirement, it's suppose to be on left of Washing, Drying etc..

But now you are saying Weight is under Washing, but that isn't visible at all.

All I see is a OLE object then a text object with message "Do not wash - non lavare", then another OLE object followed by the same message displayed earlier.

I have deleted the the fields for your understanding.

Can you explain with reference to the latest report you shared on what field you want to move. it would be better you have screenshot of latest report with instructions on what fields to be moved without changing anything further. You are changing the content again and again which is not helping to resolve the issue.

I think you have it working with weight suppressed and washing moved over.  Just do the same thing for the other objects.  Create a copy and put it one column left.  Same for the big header make a copy and move it left.  Use the same suppression.

Oh, I didn't think of that. Yes, I could see those 2 fields overlapped from the Report Explorer. But I can also see that there is no dynamic position is applied on the Washing field. Position formula needs to be changed for the same.

Yes, that is also a better idea. I hope @Sailee knows about this. Else, we could help her.

She is using it on the weight and wash fields.  Just a matter of extending to all fields.
