how can i hide all PAID invoices?

how can i hide all PAID invoices?

once paid, i do not want to look at the paid invoices. all i care about are "Draft, partial, due, overdue, etc".

paid should be hidden. i want them hidden.

doing a custom view DOES NOT WORK. i have had a chat session with the help people 4 times without being able to tell me how to do it!

help!!
