Sam: If you conditionalize the whole row, that row should disappear when you turn the condition off. The colored borders indicate that you've correctly conditionalized it (rather than just conditionalizing the text within the border). If that doesn't make sense, let me know. Miriam - Or

Sam, It sounds like you're using unstructured FM? We are, and we considered going to Structured FM, but the learning curve and conversion time just wouldn't fit into our very tight (R&D) timelines. (I still fantasize about it, though! LOL) We have the same setup here with our product

Hi Sam, When you apply a condition to a table row, the cells in this row get a thick coloured border. That's intended behaviour. When you hide the condition indicators, this border disappears. Is this what you want to achieve? Apart from that you can also delete a condition and also the text and
