When you create a paramter, click on default values, browse table and browse field to populate the listbox of defaults. However this is not dynamic in crystal. If I added a new customer 5 minutes later your report listbox would not include it.

If you are talking about a listbox that is reasonably static, you could do this once a week or so and its not big deal.

There's also a neat tool at that creates a .txt file that can be imported into the default values list. I have read about it but not checked it out. Assumming it works, and you can somehow schedule it, there may be a solution here.
