What is render variable?Where do you exactly use in developing a
report?

Answer Posted / the_xxx

Render variable is used to conditionally hide particular
part of the report like column, Summary, footer, header
e.t.c. By using Style variable also we can achieve this, By
setting the property Box Type to 'None' for a particular
part of the report after selecting a condition variable (
Boolean or String) as Style variable. And we can perform
conditional formatting by using Style variable for Report
columns and this cannot be achieved by using Render
variable. For both Render and Style variable we have to
define and use either Boolean variable or String variable in
Conditional Explorer. I hope you understand the difference.
