Hiding table Column

Princi

<div>Hey,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Trying to hide the column from table based on printPrices parameter (value would be Y or N) at run time. My Requirement is: Table is having 4 columns: Part Number, Description, Qty, Price.</div>
<div>If printPrices parameter value is Y then display the Price column with values else display table with rest 3 columns (Part Number, Description, Qty).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Problem is: On passing printPrices as 'Y', report is working fine but If we pass printPrices parameter value as 'N' then getting below exception:- </div>
