I have created a report in CR Version 10 and added four groups in the report (part of the requirement). It works fine, but whenever I deploy it on Crystal Enterprise server through Crystal Management Console all grouping data inside report and Group tree become hyperlinks. Group tree should be hyperlink that way you can jump to different group data, but I do not want data to be hyperlinked inside the report area (data fields are in group sections).

Question: Is there any way I can turn the hyperlink feature off without putting the report data in “Detail section”

Thanks
 
Doesn't sound like a hyperlink, it sounds like you've used the Hide (allow drill down) for the detail section.

Change it to Suppress and you won't drill into data.

If a field really is a hyperlink, then it has to have been formatted as such, so right click the field and select format field->Hyperlink and make sure it isn't designated as a hyperlink.

Opps, May be I haven't explain my issue clearly. The data which drills down is in Group headers not in the detail section. The detail section works fine and there is no drill down there.

Let see I have added four groups and in every group header section I have a field or two. when this reports deployed on Crystal Enterprise the "Group header sections" data become drill down (or hyperlink), may be because of grouping data. But I do not want the Group headers data to be drill down.

thanks
 
If you place group fields in text boxes, the drilldown feature will not work.

I'm not aware of this automated drill down aspect, sorry.

LB's suggestion may work, give it a try, or place them in formulas, that may work as well.

Bingo, LB's solution works pretty good. I tried using formula as well but didn't work.

Thank you all you guys
