Problem Note 2408: Hiding a column by setting Visible attribute to No in Columns property
window may still display label
Within a SAS/AF FRAME entry, if you hide a column in a Form Viewer
control by setting its Visible attribute in the form viewer's Columns
properties window to No, the label may still display in run mode.
To circumvent the problem, either select Form, Refill Using Attributes
in build mode if you want to remove all visual customizations and let
SAS redraw the form viewer contents without this column displayed or set
the column's Visible attribute programmatically in run mode. For
example, the following FRAME SCL code hides the AGE column:
sasdataset1._getColumnNumber('age',agenum);
sasdataset1.columns{agenum}.visible='No';
