Showing Parameter Values In Your Report 2

Hello,

I am currently using Crystal Reports 8.5 and have a report in which I show the parameter values that I have selected for the report. I currently have two parameters that won't show on my report.

One of my parameters is a date range and when I refresh the report, the date range that I selected for my parameter does not show up.

The second parameter is a pay company, if I select to see multiple pay companies, only the first pay company that I entered shows up as an entered paramenter.
Any ideas/suggestions?

Thanks so much for your assistance,

megmccartney :)
 
Your date range - try creating two formula fields - min(<DateRangeParam>) and max. Then use these instead.

For the other one - I'm just looking for a link.
 
You need to write a formula for the data range parameter such as this:

"This report covers "&totext(minimum({?DateRangeParm}))&" to "&totext(maximum({?DateRangeParm}))

On the second parameter, assuming it is a string data type, use the join() function.

Join({?MVStringParm},",")

You can also do some conditional supression to get exactly what you want, but I haven't been able to find the link, sorry.
 
Thanks Katy44 and dgillz, both your tips helped and my parameters are now showing! Thanks again!
