is this a bug in Crystal Version 7 that just can't be worked around? I have a .txt file I'm using for a picklist in my province/state prompt. Both the value and description in my prompt show fine in the designer when I run it but when I schedule it on Info Desktop, only the value in the prompt will show. Is there anyway around this? I've tried making sure there is a tab between my value and my description in my .txt pick list and this doesn't seem to work. PLEASE HELP!

Not sure if this helps as I am using CR8 on Info 7.5.
In Info 7 picklists there has to be two tabs between the parameter and description.

That KB article is referring to the Prompt name value that shows up, not the values in the dropdown. I have the same problems. I've set a list of default values and descriptions for a parameter. I set it to show the description only. This works fine in Crystal, but in Info Desktop, it only shows the values. Any ideas on this?
Thanks.
Thanks.
