VB & Crystal Reports

[Akshaya]

Hi,

I have report created a report using Crystal Reports. I am calling the report from Visual Basic applications. Report is based on some views, which are generated before calling the report in the user interface created using VB. Views are created based on some date conditions, which the user will input from the User interface. The user interface is nothing to do with the report generation it just calls the report with the dynamic data. I want to pass these dates to the report and show them on the report. The dates passed to the report will not contribute for the data population or for the report generation. The values, which are passed from the user interface, should be visible on the report.

Please send the sample code or a site where I can get the information.

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

You could setup Formula Fields in the Report which just contain Empty Strings, then you can access those Formulas within VB and Put any Text you like into them to be displayed on the Report.
