Hi Harry,

With repeating elements you can un-tick the minimum count (Object > Binding palette), so that when the form is rendered there will not be an instance on the form.

However because in your case the body row is the repeating element and not the section, while you can initially hide the body row, I don't think you will have much joy hiding the footer.

As far as I can tell, you cannot script for the presence of the table section (visible/hidden), so having a checkbox to hide the section will probably not help.

The only work around I can think of is to un-tick the min count of the body row and have the checkbox show/hide the footer row of the section.

Example here: https://acrobat.com/#d=4Nj*BeqL1iG-6tfQBLoIfA

If you wanted to hide the body rows as well, then you would need to loop through, see the script in the click event of the checkboxes.

In relation to the headers, if you select the header row, in the Object > Pagination palette you can specify that the header row appears on subsequent pages. (this sometimes doesn't work when the table goes over many pages).

While you can disallow content page breaks within content for most objects, I don't think that you can specify it for sections.

Hope that helps,

Niall
