    Last Full Year

    LastFullWeek and LastFullMonth exist, but there is no LastFullYear? I'm sure there must be a solution for this - getting last year's data for comparisons is certainly a routine operation that happens often - but I haven't found one. I don't want LastYearYTD. I need all the data for last year...

    How do I pass datadate through add command

    I have a report where I want the end date to be the previous day. When doing this in Crystal's record selection I tell it datadate-1. How can I pass datadate-1 in an add command so I don't need to use Crystal's record selection? Thanks!

    How do I check for 1st day of the year?

    I have reports that need to check what day of the year it is. On anything other than Jan 1 the reports will pull YTD data. If the date is Jan 1, I want the reports to pull PreviousFullYear. I have played around with DatePart but have not figured out how to do it. Thanks!

    I am using Crystal XI R2 against an Oracle DB. The string in a DB field contains an ID that looks like "uswknp09". I parse the field to get just that ID. Now I need to convert that ID to a full name based on the DB table fields FIRST NAME and LAST NAME. How do I create a formula that ties...
