Displaying Parameter Values in a Message Box or String 1

[crimsntyd]

Hi,
I have a viewer in VB that works really well, and even gives the user a message when there are no records for the parameters they've entered (I'm using Crystal to handling parameter input, not passing them through VB). What I'd like to do is show the parameters they selected in the message box that appears (or some other way). But, I don't know how to retrieve the parameters in VB. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

VB 6.0
Windows 2000
Crystal Reports XI

That can get tricky if you're dealing with multiple value or range parameters, but if you're just dealing with single values, you can use the 'hidden' CurrentValue property of the ParameterFieldDefinition. This code would should be placed after forcing a ReadRecords, or immeidately after sending the report to a Viewer:

Dim strMsg As String
Dim i As Integer

For i = 1 To rpt.ParameterFields.Count
    With rpt.ParameterFields(i)
        strMsg = strMsg & .ParameterFieldName & " value: " & .CurrentValue & vbCrLf
    End With
Next i

MsgBox strMsg

Thanks! I'll figure out the range stuff.
