I want to display my text box values on a crystal report header.

@StartDate=txtStartDate
@EndDate=txtEndDate

I know we can use FormulaFields(1) but how?

I could do it easily using Crystal Report 4.5. Now I got newer version of CR 8.5.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

 
I'm not sure if this is redundant but I create a Title formula:
"Report Date: "+ToText({StartDate},"MMM dd, yyyy")+" to "+ToText({EndDate},"MMM dd, yyyy")

Note that the MMM dd yyyy is the format of the date you wish and you can change it to whatever you want.

Note that you can also make the parameter field a range so that the start and end date are in the range of one parameter. You would then use the Minimum and Maximum fields with the ToText for your report header.

Hope this helps.
