Hidding blank fields in reports

I have a report that calculates some statistics from feedback report data
that is stored in a table. However, there is also a text comment field. I
want to include the comments in the report. However, the comment field is
usually blank, so at the moment I'm getting a long report with loads of blank
lines and only occassional lines of text. Is it possible to set up the
report so that the text line is only visible if there is actually text in the
field?
 
Stephen:

You don't indicate how your "comment" text field is set up on your report,
however, if it runs the width of the page, this is simple to solve. Make
sure the Can Grow property for the control is set to Yes. Then size the
control's height to .0007 (which makes it virtually invisible), but it will
grow to show the text if its there.
