    Yes, I tried conditional suppression on the details, which works, but I would need to display the report at the Group level.

    Memo field 4000 chars issue in CR

    Hello All, I'm trying to display a memo field that is 4000 characters in Crystal Reports 2008, and it doesn't really work as expected. It doesn't work at all, acually. Crystal throws a non-descriptive error saying that it has stopped working. I try just displaying the field in the details...

    I figured it out with a Running Total and sorting! Too bad I can't delete my post!

    Great, thanks! That worked, but I flagged both by doing: if {@From Date} < previous({@Thru Date}) then red else if {@Thru Date} > next({@From Date}) then red else black

    Conditionally Suppress Records

    Create a formula to test for Right Heart Cath: if {TestName} = "Right Heart Cath" then 1 else 0 not necessary, but if you want, put the formula in details and do a Sum on it by the ID Group. (you can then suppress these or delete them) then go to Report Menu > Selection Formulas > Group and...

    How to make an exception for a certain record

    Thanks lbass, that works and is easier than the other solution (making a formula and referencing it in the record seclection). I was noticing it still doesn't get passed into the SQL Query Where clause. I know I can use a SQL expression with Upper to get it to pass in but I recall vaguely...

    Previous Date Sum Question

    You will have to do a manual running total using variables, you can google the topic if you want more info about why, etc, but it will be something like: (Reset may not be necessary unless you actually do need to reset it, put it in the section of your report where/if you want to reset) @Reset...

    different colors for a box

    There is no conditional formatting on a box that I am aware of. I would make a text object with a border instead and control that with a formula.

    How to make an exception for a certain record

    Thanks for your response. I ended up using Madawc's solution, although I was noticing it doesn't pass it into the SQL query so the filtering happends locally. CR85User's solution did not work for me as I have some records that have Acktest and it would not exclude those.

    How to make an exception for a certain record

    Hi, This is likely a silly question, I just am having a hard time come up with the solution at the moment. I have many reports which contain the following criteria: not ({LAST_NAME} like "*Test*") Unfortunately there are many records in our db which we cannot delete containing Test as the...

    Problem with Enterprise Rescheduling a Historical Instance

    Looks like restarting services fixed our issue.

    Problem with Enterprise Rescheduling a Historical Instance

    That works fine for me, and will resolve the issue, but I have always done this automatically just by doing a Save As from Crystal Reports and updating the password in the CMC.
