Printing Parameters for Number of lables? 1

[RickBooker]

Using Crystal 7. I have a lable report that has various parameters ie. stock code, descriptions etc. Is there a way to add a parameter to tell how many labels to print? I understand that it can be done from the File/print menu as number of copies. But was looking for a way to do it by using a parameter. Any suggestions?<br>
Thanks<br>

How about create a table called NUMBERS with the numbers 1 to 10 (or whatever). Then 'link' that to your label report table, selecting records from NUMBERS that are less than equal to a parameter. What you would want is a cross join of these tables, so that if you wanted 3 copies of each label, you would select three rows from NUMBERS (ie 1,2,3), and you would get three copies of your labels. Hope this makes sense. <p>Malcolm Wynden<br><a href=mailto:wynden@island.dot.net>wynden@island.dot.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

Thanks MalcolmW. Your reply works great and I'm sure the idea can be used in other ways too.<br>
