Using Crystal Reports XI with Oracle 9.
The format in which dates appear (e.g., MM/DD/YY or DD-MON-YYYY) can be configured using "File/Options/Fields" and then specifying the format for 'Date' and 'Date and Time'. This works fine for all fields EXCEPT for parameter fields. If I have a user-specifiable parameter that is a Date parameter, and I include that parameter on the printed report, the format of that date value is hard-wired to the format in effect when the field was placed. It does not seem to honor the setting specified as above.
Am I missing something here? Does anyone else see this problem? Can anyone suggest a workaround?
Thanks!
