Refresh Parameters Window

[stuartgmilton]

Hi Folks,

My report has a few parameters, so when I refresh it, I keep getting asked whether I wish to use the current parameters or choose other ones.

Is it possible to force the user to always enter new values?

Thanks,

Stuart

This is the way that Crystal Reports designer works.
If you're always running your reports in the designer then, when you refresh, you'll always be asked.
If you want to ensure that it always asks for new values, then close the preview window and then click either Refresh or Print Preview.

But when I release these reports to be used through our .NET application, I want it to pass the report variables from the application.

Is this not possible?

That is possible, but it's not clear how it's related to your original question. The Crystal runtime components expose properties and methods for setting parameter values programmatically.

view, e-mail, export, burst, distribute, and schedule Crystal Reports.

If I had to guess, it sounds like what you need to do is enter some code in the clicked event of the Refresh button. In that code, set the default behavior to False, set the parameter values programmatically, and run the report.
