NoRows Leaves Extra White Space

I have a report with multiple tables and datasets. The problem is if one of
the tables/datasets doesn't have any data I get too much white space between
the sections. I tried to set the visiblity property on the table but that
doesn't work if there is no data being returned via the dataset.
For example:
John Does (1st table)
Background Info (2nd table)
Education (3rd table)
This looks fine because there is data in all 3 tables/datasets
Now if there is no background info I get this:
John Doe (1st table)
Education (3rd table)
When I want this:
John Doe (1st table)
Education (3rd table)
I can't combine the info to one table for reasons I won't go into.
Thanks!Try putting each table inside a rectangle and setting the rectangle property
visiblility to Hidden = True if no rows are returned for the rectangles child
table. Additionally, put all 3 rectangles/tables inside a 'master'
rectangle. This will help control some of your whitespace issues.
