Email report (or link), only if there are records to be viewed.

Any idea how to have a Report Subscription only email the report or link if
there are records returned by the reports query or dataset?The only way I've seen to do this is with a data driven subscription.
Unfortunately, DDS is not available in non-Enterprise edition
installations. If you can't do DDS, the best you can do is use an
expression like ="No data available to report" in the NoRows property.
The subscription email still goes out but the report contains an
explanatory message instead of a blank page.

Were you able to do this? Have the same need to email the
report ONLY if there are any records. Please let us know.
Best regards,
Steve.

Do you have any examples of this
? We need the same logic. Am looking at the step 3 window and the place to
put this in but am not sure.
Thanks, Steve.
