   Const begins_with = 2

   Const current_layer = False

   Const rows = 1

   Set objPPRep = GetObject(, "CognosPowerPlay.Report")

   objPPRep.Rows.Item(1).Activate

   intFound = 1

   Do While intFound <> 0

      intFound = objPPRep.FindNext("Star", begins_with,
_

         current_layer, rows)

      If intFound = -1 Then

         objPPRep.Rows.Active.Select

         objPPRep.HideSelected
