Do you want to display the date parameter in the proper format? ToText would do that, ToText({your.date}, "dd/MM/yyyy")

If you want the parameter different, I don't know of a method, except to enter it as a string and then use LEFT, MID, RIGHT and DATE(yyyy, mm, dd) to turn it into something Crystal will treat as a date.

It helps to give your Crystal version.
