Checking Ranges: is "=" the same as "in"?

[taratr98]

Hi -

I'm updating a report for a client, and I got a report with some of the strangest Record Selection Formulas I've ever seen.

In particular:
--
{Option.Date} = {?Select Date Range}
--
Where {?Select Date Range} was a range-type parameter that the user selected. Were I doing this report, I would have used {Option.Date} in {?Select Date Range}.

My question is: what is the difference between using "=" and "in." Is this harmful?

Thanks.

Hi there,

"in" is the correct syntax for a range.
