Thanks ... I have an Access background. In Access, I could enter dates in a form, then pass (reference) those values to a text field on the report. I'll just have to get used to the CR way.

Follow-up ... I know how to setup a date range using parameters that will prompt for input, but how would I reference the start date and end date individually? And, can I suppress the prompt? I'm relatively new to CR, so bear with me. Thanks.
