Keyboard Input

[Monkey820]

Is there any way to add a prompted field for the user to keyboard input their own address information on a report?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

You could use a series of parameter fields, one for each line, but I wouldn't claim that it will be highly appealing to the user.

Is user address information stored on the system? Or should it be?

No, it would be in the case the address differs from what we have on our ERP system.

Will the user be running Crystal Designer, a Crystal viewer, or an application with an embedded viewer?

An app with an embedded viewer

Why not capture the input within your app and then pass the values as parameters.

Then you could have multiple formulas in the report such as:

if {?MyParm1} = "" then
{table.field1} else
{?MyParm1}

-k
