Author Displaying a Message if no chart data present

Hi, I currently have a report that displays a chart among other things. If
the report is called but no data is available for the chart i get a big
block of white space. Is it at all possible to display something in it's
place rather than just nothing at all if there is no data for the chart to
display?

Thanks, Simon

Yes. The chart has a "NoRows" property in the properties window. If the
chart's dataset has no rows and the NoRows property is set, a textbox with
the NoRows message will be shown instead of the chart.
