    Time and Date formula

    Mike and poujor thank you for your help. At this point I have some understanding of what I am doing and will post back after taking time to figure out exactly how to formulate things. I tend to use the Record Selection Formula and that is why I have more problems.

    Remove full duplicate lines

    I am very new to Crystal and usually use MS Execel. However, when outputting this report automatically I'd like for the report to remove duplicate lines, instead of surpressing them. How do I do that? Here is the example. Raw Data: Date-Time-Item-Account 3/16/2011 - 12:00PM - Orange - 001...

    Simple Decminal Place Question

    Sorry, I'm still a newbie to Crystal. When I input the formula: ToText(({WRK.AAMT_001}/100), 2) The system gives me the error 'A number, or currency amount is required here.' The field is definitely numbers, so i'm not sure why this is happen.

    Formula to remove duplicates

    Hi turkbear/LB, I've tried totext({WB3.KEY})+{WRKLOB.ACT} However, it doesn't appear to do anything in the output even though I am able to input it in as a formula without error. I'm a beginner at this, can you define what "totext" does?

    Formula to remove duplicates

    So from your example just put the two fields in the formula to eliminate duplication? totext{WB3.KEY}+{WRKLOB.ACT} I tried a variation and it states that "there is an error in this formula. Do you want to save it anyways?
