| | Posted: | | | | I would like to design a report that only shows a DVD's Easter Eggs, but I don't want to have a DVD in my report that doesn't have any easter eggs. Isn't there a way to automaticly hide a DVD if no Easter Egg text is available?
e.g. If I own say 250 DVDs and only 150 have Easter Egg information, I should only have 150 entries in the report.
TIA

| | Posted: | | | | There doesn't appear to be any way built into the software to do that. You will need to it through Tags and manually tag all the profiles that have Easter Eggs then use the tag for your report (assuming you can use Tags to filter reports. I've never written a report or looked into how it's done so I can't say for sure). | | | "Rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men" - Douglas Bader

| | Posted: | | | | Workaround for finding all profiles with an easter eggs description:
Go to the General tab of the Filter window.
Activate the Substring Search checkbox.
Type a single character in the Other searches text box that will most likely appear in all descriptions. An "e" should be fine for most languages.
In the Other searches dropdown box, activate E.Eggs only.
You then can run a report on the filtered DVDs, or flag and tag them for future operations. | | | | Matthias |

| | Posted: | | | | You can also put, at the end of easter eggs, a code that will not be found elsewhere (and hide it with color if you want) For example $%$.
Then you search on $%$ and you have exactly what you want. | | | | Images from movies |

| | Posted: | | | | You could of course search for a 'space'... You'll have to copy and paste a space into the search box tho as if you just hit space it will just flag a title in the background. |
