    Thanks Dell. SAP agreed I should put in an enhancement request. Seems like a pretty basic feature that Crystal/BOE should really have.

    Any input? Anyone? I worked with SAP and they couldn't provide a solution. The only closely related issue online was: http://tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=181599 (for an old version).

    COMMAND DATE RANGE - Yesterday 7AM to CurrentDate 7AM?

    Hello all. In Crystal XI, I'm debugging my SQL COMMAND syntax: This worked in Group Selection, but trying to use logic in a COMMAND instead: {REG.START_DT_TM} >= datetime(currentdate - 1,time(7,0,0)) and {REG.START_DT_TM} <= datetime(currentdate,time(6,59,59)) Thanks for your help!

    How to get &quot;Next Next&quot; Value?

    Hi lbass, thanks so much for your input. My teammate changed approach on how to attack the report. Turns out that the data had a "STEP" field (Step A, Step B, Step C, Step D, Step E). Under each Case# group, the 5 records were sorted in same descending order by Step. He needed to diplay the...

    How to get Maximum (Group 2) of Minimum (Group 1)?

    Ian - nice solution! Implemented the Reset, Eval and Display formulas in appropriate sections using Datetime(YYYY,MM,DD,00,00,00) instead of Date(YYYY,MM,DD 00:00:00)... and finally saw the MAXIMUM (GROUP1) of the MINIMUM (GROUP2) date that I wanted to see! Awesome solution, very excited. Now I...
