Problem with a SQL Command in Crystal Reports
This expression in my SQL Command seems to be gumming up the works:
CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), DATEADD(year, -1, {?BeginDate}), 112)
I get the attached error message.
The funny this is that if I simply replace {?BeginDate} with a string value like '20091001', everything works like a charm. This makes no sense since they're both strings and should give the same result.
Any ideas?
