Hi,
If you mean can you change the datasource based on what the parameter value is, then, as far as I know,no, not in CR itself ( You can in a VB app that uses CR, however)..

Reports designed in Crystal are strongly bound to the Datasource used at design time and cannot change it 'on the fly' without using tools from the SDK in an application that 'wraps' the report execution with custom code.

hello
I can't find any example how to assign ConnectString to the Crystal Report as parameter
I want in VBA to point DataSource to backup database if primary base will damage

bye

Hi,'
I believe that it would not be a parameter in the report itself, it would be a form item ( or other user input method ) that then passes the choice to the Crystal Report object..
