Report Heading

[CARLEENHOP]

Hi

I am setting my crystal report up in an external program where the user runs it from. I want to be able to print the report heading based on either a)the criteria the user enters or b) the name the user saves the report within the external application.

Either way I am not sure how to achieve this. i guess the application needs to pass a paramater and then that parameter needs to be displayed but I have no idea where to start.

Thanks

Crystal allows parameters to be entered. You can display the parameter value in the report header, if you want. I don't know of any way to alter the field called 'Report Title', which is the Title from Document Properties, at least with my set-up.

Title will also appear as the name of the report. If the Title is left blank, the name of the file will be used instead.

Does this help?

PS. It helps to give your Crystal version - 8, 8.5, 9, 10, 11 or whatever. Methods sometimes change between versions, and higher versions have extra options. In this case, it probably makes no difference.
