    In Crystal XI .. can't get formula to work right.

    Report has detail plus two group levels. My formula concatenates string values from detail level such that at the end it contains every value from the column in a single string. It is working absolutely perfectly ... only on the detail lines. Problem is, the formula evaluates again between the...

    In Crystal XI .. can't get report recap to work.

    thread766-1488292 My problem is very similar to what the user described in the cited thread. I have a 2-group tabular report containing sub-totals at the bottom of each group. User wants a recap of all the sub-total lines. I know I can easily do that as a sub-report, but to the best of my...

    Crystal XI, crosstab reports, subTotals and percentages

    Problem #1. In the report totals row, Crystal adds 154 + 1 + 50 +126 +8010 +618 and claims the sum is 8958 instead of 8959. Problem #2. Throughout the report, counts of zero are shown as being a non-zero percent of the row total. Since the report merely counts, and all the tallies are...

    dates in Crystal XI

    User wants to compare data in a current period to data in the same period a year earlier. Current period is defined by begin and end parameters. What's a good way to calculate the begin and end of the prior date range? I tried the following (for the begin date) but Crystal complains that...

    in Crystal XI, next(fid) & OnLastRecord

    What results are returned for IF fid <> NEXT(fid) when there is no "next" row? thatis, the fid is already in the last/final row? I tried pairing the above inequality with "not OnLastRocord" but it behaves like I might expect if the NEXT(fid) part was returning a null resulting in an...

    Crystal XI - problem with View SQL query

    View SQL query shows me a query which specifies a hard-coded date range (from 2004) even though there is no explicit criteria specified either in the ADD clause or in record/group selection. I don't know how that query got there, and I need to either modify it or else delete the whole thing...

    in Crystal XI, what format is date if default null is selected?

    There is a report option to substitute "default" for any null value in the database. "Help" says this is zero. But this doesn't make sense to me for a date field. 1. In a query or formula, what format do I use to reference this default/zero date value? 2. Is there a way to specify a default...

    'LastFullMonth' function in Crystal XI

    After I ran a report (in Crystal 11) utilizing LastFullMonth as the primary selection criterion I observed that it ran fine and produced correct data; then I published and scheduled a it (in InfoView). One time it ran and selected no data and another time it blew up complaining that...

    passing a value from main to subReport in Crystal 11

    I have a report where the input parameter passed to the main report is passed down to two subreports. I'm trying to find a way to pass a calculated date instead of the input date, but the "Change Subreport Links" window does not allow me to do that. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Is there...

    'enforce' option of joins in Crystal XI

    The blurb returned by Crystal's "help" talks about "enforce" as though the person asking what it means knows what it means. I don't. 1. Does "enforce" cause the machine to do more work in selecting records? 2. What difference does it make whether a join is enforced? I have a report...
