Hi, Im using CR V10 on a BW environment. Our users need to have the possibility to change some of the data in their report (like adding or substacting an amount to the one displayed) untill the last minute, which they can easily do now with excel (Bex), but not with Crystal or any other...

Hi Synapsevampire Thanks for replying but I did that already, and it makes my report display the lowest date but it does it for every group. In my report I only want to see the lowest date of the action, whoever did it. Ex : Paul creates contract1 on 06/02, and then Mike enters some new data on...

Hi I'm using CR 8.5 I have a pb with a report which I want to show only the data corresponding to the lowest date. ex : I have 2 groups of employees, who did an action on a contract at a certain date.

Hi, I'm using Crystal 8.0, and I have a problem with a shared variable (date format). I'm creating it in a subreport, so that I can get it in the main report. It works fine, though in the main report it doesn't seem to be recognized as a date in the main report, as when I try do do a select...

Hi I'm using CR 8.0 I have a report with several subreports and I would like it to show me values included in a date range. The values should be within yesterday 5.00 pm and today 5.00 pm. I think I need a parameter to do this, but how? I've created 2 variables to get the begin and end dates...

Hi I'm using CR8 I created a variable I named @yesterday: datevar yesterday; yesterday := (currentdate-1) I'd like to turn this variable into a Datetime variable that would give me yesterday's date AND time and the time should be 5pm all the time. I tried various types of formulas, such as...

Hi I'm using cr 8 I have a report based on one group, which is quite long (about 3 pages) I would like the group header section to repeat on top of every page so that the user doesn't have to flip pages back and forth to see Group header info. But it doesn't work, it only repeats when a new...

HI I'm using CR8 I have a report to which a query is linked. When I refresh the main report the query doesn't display the most up to date records. I can't get to update the query data either. I have unchecked Save data with report but it doesn't change anything Any idea?
