If there is a better way to do this please let me know.

I have an app that displays the Fee’s associated with a player on a soccer team. We have multiple players on a team and multiple teams.

Here is screen shots of the data  
List of players on U16 Team

 ![Players](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/d/d5b8b55b3e725b2f218786966d06b8382b2c26be.jpeg)  
List of fees and Payments for a Player  
 ![Payments](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/3/38c9dbe626c093f664617ea41c2215b84d7653c6.jpeg)

On my U10 team I am testing the ability to only show the data that is associated with the logged in users. Which I have successfully done. So if the logged in users has a player on the u10 team that user will on see their players data. Example below.

U10 Logged in users

 ![Logged Inuser](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/0/060d3a084799aee20d0b42440916bf62723457b6.jpeg)

The issue i am trying to solve is that if a user selects the U10 team and **DOES NOT** have a player on the team they get the following screen.

**Is there a way to present them with another screen or image? maybe - You do not have a player on this team or You are not authorized to view this section or just an image?**

You can set visibility on any component based on a column value. Only show your separator lines if name, for example, is not empty or blank. You can do the same with a Rich Text component to show a message only if the name is empty or blank.

Cool… I got the rich text message to show up. ![RichText message](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/e/e507dd15e9df8de503515187a286d8b103353675.png)

For further clarification, take a look at @JackVaughan’s explanation in this video. It may help clean up your interface a little: [https://youtu.be/B8ivh42ZqVA?t=1078](https://youtu.be/B8ivh42ZqVA?t=1078)
