Crystal Report Parameters

[Krogoth]

Hi,

I have a problem with the parameters passing.

Suppose you have a report that contains three sub reports. These sub reorts are linked to the main report columns. But the main report requires two string parameters to be passed.

How can I pass parameter values to the report. Currently I am using the Report.ReplaceSelectionFormula property to do but it is not the correct way to do things :-)

So Can you guide me on how to do it ?

Thanks,
Krogoth!

Not sure exactly what you are saying but to pass a parameter to Crytal Reports from VB, you use the ParameterFields property

Dim objReport As CRPEAuto.Report
ojReport.ParameterFields("ParameterName").SetCurrentValue (Value)

Of course, the ParameterName is the name of the parameter you named in the report.

I am using Visual Basic 6 and Crystal Reports 6.
The Crystal 6 Report Engine is added in the project reference area.
When I try to do the following:
dim objReport as CRPEAuto.Report

...it does not give me the "CRPEAuto" option. All I see are "CR" options.
Does this code utilize a later Crystal Report engine?

Thanks to anyone who may answer. It is appreciated!
