Hello everyone,
i have a big formula with many variables (booleans, strings, datetime, numbers) and i would like to monitor the values of the variables.
is there a way to see that?

(when the formula crashes due to an infinite loop, the values of the variable are shown)

Thanks!
 
There is no way to "debug" this directly in Crystal. In the past I have resorted to "old school" debugging techniques from the time before debuggers. I temporarily put the formulas I'm interested in on the report so that I can see the values while the report is processing. By analyzing this information, I can usually figure out where the problem is. After I'm done, I'll remove the formulas from the report.
