Get Parameters for Crystal Reports

[troyddaniels]

I am wondering how you get parameters for an accpac report (e.g. from acct x to acct y). If I take a form and copy it, change it, and then save it and try to run it from the report section under a different name I get a long list of variables and a window asking for the paramter value. How do I get it to pull up a form like that of the original report? (basically what I have done is taken the Transaction History, slimmed it down so it doesn't print to a million pages, and saved it as condensed.rpt but it won't work)

Thanks

You need to create your own report front end in VBA and then pass the parameters to the report.
Record a macro while you print the standard Accpac report and you will see how it is done.
