how to extract elements from parameter input 8.5 crystal

[fab2007]

pax

report needs user to enter partnumbers and quantities

- i have one string parameter to enter "part numbers" and use this in the selector

- i have one number parameter to enter "quantity"


i think i need to use " {?qty}[x] "

i am not familiar with the "indexing" of parameters

any help or examples??

Are you saying that the quantity entered will be specific to the part entered? But that the user may be entering multiple parts (with their corresponding quantities)?

thanks

using (2) parameters:
parts via {?parts}
and
quantities via {?qty}

the subscript function {?qty}[x]
being increased and limited ubound({?qty})

-- answer you question "yes" but.. problem duplicate entries in the parameter qty

Sorry, I can't follow this. Please try to write complete sentences with more information.
