Hot do you show boolean field as checkbox? 1

[ausmoran]

IS there a way in crystal (version 9)to display the contents of boolean fields in a Crystal Report. Ideally, what I'd like to do is to "print" an unchecked checkbox when the field content is "no" and a checked checkbox when the field content is "yes."

I am totally a novice at this, so any highly detailed help you might be able to offer would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks in advance,
Austin

Create the following formula:


If your boolean statement = true then "o" else "x"

Place this field on the report. Then change the font to "wingdings" You'll have to play with the font size, in order to get things to "line up"

Thanks very much for your helpful input! I think you saved me about six hundred hours of building multiple subreports. Have a great weekend.
