hiding fields in a record that have no data

[Balds]

I am assuming this is pretty simple to do, but I am not sure how. I have an
asp intranet site I am building. I have a one admin form that allows users to
post a meeting. They meeting has an area to select a start time and end time.
in the start time they can select all day event, in which they end time is left
empty. How on the detail page the user sees, can I hide a field if there is
not data in it. dreamweaver has the ability to hide a recordset and display
something else if the recordset is empty, how do you do it for just one field
and not the whole recordset. Thanks Craig

Select the dynamic code on the page and use the server behavior "Show If
Recordset is not Empty". That will make the area you selected visible only
if that field has info for that record.

Pseudocode:

if (length(myfield) > 0) then
print myfield
end if

I tried both methods and couldn't get either one to work. I have tried the
'show if recordset is not empty' before and that seems to only work if I am
talking about a whole record not just a field in that record. I should mention
that I also need to hide the field tag also so I have a <tr> web site:
(website field from database) </tr> I need that whole <tr> to hide if there is
not a value for that field. I also tried the following: But I do not think
I am sure how to implement this. I am a novice in asp coding. where do I put
that, is there any other syntax that needs to go with it? is that enough code
to hide the field name tag also or just the field itself? if (length(myfield)

> 0) then print myfield end if
