date range with From:field.........To: field

[javier3623]

Date range: I need to have my heading to look like this:

From: 04/01/2007 To: 06/30/2007

what would the whole thing need to be done including the space in the middle.
I have selected the date range but I don't know how to display my heading like that!

How do you set the dates range?
By Parameter?
By Formula with fixed dates?
Please explain

I just selected my dates from the Select Expert and nothing else.
I didn't set up any parameters nor formulas.
I have my report ready with all the data. I need the heading to show the beginning date and the ending date. If I change the dates on the select expert, then the "heading" to change as I select the new date range.

Create 2 parameters with the Date type:
(in the field explorer, right click on the parameter field ->NEW)

1st one - DateFrom
2nd one - DateTo

Then in your record selection formula print:

{your_table.date_field}>={?DateFrom} and
{your_table.date_field} <={?DateTo}

To show the parameters in your report, insert them into your PH section (you can find them in your Field Explorer under the Parameter Fields section).
Then insert a text object(s) into your Page Header to print the text
'From: ' and 'To: '.
I mean you can place these 2 parts of text in 2 separate text objects or you can print them in one and then insert parameters into it, which is more convenient if you need to move or format it.

Hi, I have basically the same question.

Is it possible to do this with only one parameter field?

Do the parameter fields need to be date ranges, if I'm using the double parameter field method?

Thanks!
