Suppression of a Field?

I'm using FP 6.1. I have 2 fields side by side on the same line. The word(s) "Claim #:" is hardcoded and the actual # imports from a database. Next to it I have "Acct #:" hardcoded and it's number imports from the same database. My questions is: When there is no data in "Acct #:", how do I make it not print? Can I even do it with it being hardcoded and not database?

 

Thanks!

One option would be to create a rule that handles all the text in the field:

var account = Field("ACCOUNT");
var claim = Field("CLAIM");
var result = '';
if (claim != '') result += 'Claim #: ' + claim + ' ';
if (account != '') result += 'Acct #: ' + account;
return result;

If you need the account number to stay in a specific position, you may have to add tab tags to the code and check the tagged text box in the rule.
