Does some one know how to send as a parameter
The Table or the Database that a Crystal Report
will use.

Thanks
 
Yes, when you create the parameter click on "set default values" and you can then select the table and field to read and then add to a default values list.

The downside to this approach is that the list is not dynamic -- If you add 5 new records today, they will not be in the list.

If you are working with fairly static data this is OK as you can recreate your default values once a week or so, but with highly dynamic data this is not a good solution, nor do I have one. Software Support for Sage Mas90, Macola, Crystal Reports, Goldmine and MS Office
