SetParameterValue not doing what it says!!!!!

[ChubbyArse]

Hi all,

I'm having trouble setting a boolean parameter in a crystal report which I'm calling from a VB.net windows Form application.

The parameter is called ShowScrappedOnly and is set to a boolean.

This is the code that I try to set the value with:

rptReport.ReportDocument.SetParameterValue("ShowScrappedOnly", chkScrappedOnly.Checked)

chkScrappedOnly.Checked is a checkbox on a form and evaluates to True or False.

When the report is run the parameter dialog box comes up asking for the parameter I've just set. However, if I spell the parameter name wrongly it gives an error of "Invalid Field Name"

I include this line to check the value of the parameter:

rptReport.ReportDocument.DataDefinition.ParameterFields("ShowScrappedOnly").CurrentValues.Count

and it gives me 1.

It's obvious that the report is not getting the value that I set, as the dialog is popping up, but on the flip-side if I set the parameter with the wrong name it complains???

Any ideas on this anyone?
