Please help..failure when using greater than symbol...

[emmee]

Hi,

I am using Crystal 9i and trying to programme record selection using csp. I'm trying to add in a greater than symbol i.e.
(>) but it keeps interpreting it as < (something like that which is the HTML code for the symbol.) However, Crystal does not like this. When I go into Enterprise Console and manually manipulate formula adding a symbol (>) it works....but I need to do this dynamically.

Thanks

Emmee

If you run the report from Crystal Reports rather than from the management console, are you getting the expected results?

Hi,

As suggested, I've just tried going into Crystal reports directly and using the same selection formula. If I use >, then it works fine but if I use &gt; (code for >) then it fails saying string, boolean, number expected here because it doesn't understand '&gt;'

I don't understand. You are using the same symbols in your post above. What do you mean by &quot;code for '>'&quot;. The formula itself IS code. Why not just use the one that works?
