I have something like this :

Name
address1
address2
City
State
Zip

If address2 is empty, I want it to hide that whole row. Even if I remove the lables, it leaves a line return there.

I'm using Formview but can also use details in Visual Studio 2005

Thanks

if you are using a table do it like htis:

<tr runat="server" visible='<%# Eval("Name")!=null %>'>your label goes here</tr>

if you are not using a table consider using one so you dont have problems with the line return that is left after you remove the label.

Use a PlaceHolder around your control and set the PlaceHolder's visibility based on the content of the control it holds.  If the control's data is Null the PlaceHolder will be hidden and won't even take up space. 

<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder1" runat="server" Visible='<%# (Eval("YourItem")) %>'><asp:Label ID="YourItem" runat="server" Text="YourItem" Visible='<%# (Eval("YourItem")) %>' ></asp:Label></asp:PlaceHolder> 

You might need a <br /> just before the closing tag to make sure that the data above and below don't end up next to each other.  If you put it outside, it will always be there and you could potentially end up with 2 or 3 breaks between items if there were a few Null items being hidden.

I tried this but if gives an error : Conversion from string "" to type 'Boolean' is not valid.

<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder1" runat="server" Visible='<%# (Eval("address2")) %>'>address2:
<asp:Label ID="address2Label" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("address2") %>'></asp:Label><br /></asp:PlaceHolder>

any ideas ?

Maybe like this? <asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder1" runat="server" Visible='<%# (Eval("address2")).ToString().Length > 0 ? true : false%>'>

This will not hide the row/cell from a table but see if it gets rid of the data.

I can't tell because there is not data there to start with, that's why I'm trying to remove the row.

If I try it on a row with data like this :

<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder1" runat="server" Visible='<%# (Eval("address2")).ToString().Length > 0 ? true : false %>'><asp:Label ID="address1Label" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("address1") %>'></asp:Label></asp:PlaceHolder>

It errors out with Character Not Valid / Syntax error

Got it !

<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder2" runat="server" Visible='<%# IIf((Eval("address2")).ToString().Length > 0, "true", "false") %>'>
<tr>
<td>
address2:
<asp:Label ID="address2Label" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("address2") %>'></asp:Label>
</td>
</tr>
</asp:PlaceHolder>

 This works! Thanks for the help
