Hi, help!
I am running CRXI with SQL Server 2005 and use multi-value parameters for the user to select Names to include in the report. The Names table is related to other tables that have the data I need in my report. The report needs to output data for all the names selected, even if there is no data for that name in the other tables. How can I do this??? Is it a simple change to my selection formula (isnull({namedata}) then 0)?? Can't seem to figure this one out!!

The Names table needs to be the primary table that is used to link to other tables in the report. The link to the other tables should be a left-outer join.

Thank you, makes sense, but I still am not getting all the names to show in the report. I am only getting names for which there is data. If there is no data, I still want to show the names with blanks instead of data. What else can I do?

So glad to have all this help out there!!
 
Remove any selection criteria you have on the tables to the right of the Names table.
