How do i Hide fields so that they don't take up space on my form in infopath 2003?

[Saravanan]

Hi



I am saravanan, i am new to infopath, i got ur mail id from Google
group. actually in my case i am using 2 repeating sections under one
section. if i hide one of the repeating section from that( using
Conditional formatting) the space we desinged for that repeating
section is still shows in the out put form, that means that it is
hiding the section and inner things. Can't i use that space???? Or i
need to set some other propery to utilizz that space?



Sample here

output

I am hiding R1 by using conditional formatting but still the out put is
like this



Section

Note:



The space allocated for R1 is still there, how to delete that space at
the time of hiding the Sections or any control?

Put each repeating section into its own section and set conditional
formatting on the section to hide the entire section.

i tried that way also but still the spaces are coming in the output form
i tried putting each repeating sect in to one section and i tried hiding the
section by conditional formatting but it hides the section as well as fields
inside the section but the spaces allocated for section remains there in the
form, how to solve this problem
