How do Parmeter Strings work in Crystal Reports?
I have a report that I need to update but I am not sure how the parameters work. When I hoover over the parameter it has string behind the name.
ASKER
This report has 9 parameters and I only need 2 the site name and the date. The date can have a range. See below this is how it looks. I cannot find where the "Site Name, Date & to" is coming in at.
Site Name:004 Beverly Hills Acad. Date range: 20/05/14 to 02/11/14.
Site Name:004 Beverly Hills Acad. Date range: 20/05/14 to 02/11/14.
It might be easiest if you could post the report (.RPT) file.
It's possible that you're looking at a text field that had the parameters added to it, so the one report field is actually composed of different parts, like "Site Name:", then one parameter, then "Date range:", then the minimum value from the date parameter, and so on.
What are you trying to change? Are you actually trying to change a parameter in some way (eg. to a different data type), or are you trying to change something in that line that you posted (eg. change "Site Name:" to "Site:"), or something else?
