I had already done that and it still doesn't work with the print.  Visually in the report designer it is correct, but when it generates the PDF or PNG it doesn't understand to only create based on that custom size.  We used to use NetSuite and it did work properly in that system when generating PDFs for custom sizes.  Any ...

bbullins- There is an action called Show/Hide Field/object, using this action between the conditonal actions should give you the results you need.  The actions you will need to get the results you need are : Start Conditonal Statement, End Conditional Statement and Show/Hide Field/object. -Michael

mlepitt- On the report properties for Paper Kind select Custom and that should allow you to manually set the page size. I tested this and it works -Michael  

 Thanks. I understand the logic and I see conditional statements in the action tab but I fail to see how based on that condition I tell it to show or hide the fields. I also am struggling to see how to execute the end if.   Is there a way to manually code it and not have to go through the wizards?

I tried first in Chrome and FF - that wasn't an option. I then tried IE and saw the print image option, but it again printed as if it knew it was going to be 8.5 x 11 and came out blank.  I printed to a regular printer to see how it was handling it and it had Page 1 of 1 at the top right and the URL for the generated image at the bottom, ...

bbuliins- This is possible, on the Text Change event for FieldA put a conditonal statement to check if FieldA is Yes, if Yes Show the other fields. I would also check to see if FieldA is No and then hide the fields based on that. Some other things to note it may be best to set the default for that field to No and initially hide the 3 extra ...

 I would like to expand on my question. I have the fields and dropdowns working correctly but we would like to make subsequent fields conditional as to whether they are displayed or not based on the first dropdown.   For example at first you only see 3 fields FieldA - Dropdown (Yes or No) FieldB - Text FieldC- Text What I would ...

Sorry. Should have said what QB version we have. We just upgraded to Premier 2012. Thx for the link. I'll try installing the updated manually (even though I'm already on 2010) and see if it works. Will report back with results. Thx again

Blake- Do you happen to be using QB 2011? I've come across this once before, read THIS. It has to do with Instant Start a new feature in QB 2011, you may want to try disabling it or performing the steps listed in the above link. -Michael

We are still trying out Method at our business. Everytime we log into the computer where the Method engine is running, we are unable to open QB (don't use QB everyday, just 3 days a week). An error occurs saying it's already running. The process is clearly resident, but the QB GUI is not running. Only way to solve it is to kill it in ...
