I need to be able to convert an 8 digit number field (example: Number (20051208) to date field 12/08/2005) to a Date field in Crystal Reports XI. Is this possible without having to break the number apart and then puting them in the correct order and then coverting to a date.
I know for CR 7 and lower there is a Number to Date UFL that can be downloaded from Business Objects that will use a function called
numbertodate()
But I dont know if this UFL will work for CR XI and if so, where do you put the .dll's ? In the Readme file from BO it says to copy the .dlls to the windows\crystal folder but in CRXI there is not windows\crystal folder.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
