   you can accomplish this with a format trigger   
      
   go to the property palette for the object you want conditionally hidden,   
   under 'Advanced Layout', click the big fat button next to 'Format Trigger'   
   in and if/then/else statement, enter a condition under which the object   
   should be hidden and return false   
   remember to return true for all other conditions
