Show on form but not in detail view

[TE21]

I have a form that has a column [Break] that asks Yes/No questions. Based on “Yes” responses other columns will appear. I need the Yes/No [Break] column to always appear on the form, but if “No” is selected on the form, I need it to be hidden on the Details page. Since other columns are shown/hidden based on answers from the [Break] column and I need it to show up on the details page if “Yes” was chosen it has complicated things a bit. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks Steve. I’m a rookie with this but refuse to let it beat me, so I apologize in advance. I tried the CONTEXT(“Break”) = “Form” as a Show_If expression. I was thinking the “Form” meant the view type. I found out I was wrong. Is there an expression that I could use to allow the Yes/No [Break] column only show on a form view?

TE21:

CONTEXT(“Break”) = “Form”

Try instead:

("Form" = CONTEXT("ViewType"))

You are the man! Thank you Steve! Worked perfectly!
