Unbound Field

[Jefftopia]

I am attempting to get a Crystal Report to display the text from a combo box in my VB6 app without saving that text in a database. I have never used an unbound field in a CRpt but it seems like that is what I am looking for. Just don't know the formula to do it.

Anyone have any experience adding text directly from a VB form to a CRpt?

thx.

You can probably do this by creating a parameter and passing the combo box values to it, then display the parameter in the Crystal Report in a formula:

// This assumes a recent version of Crystal
join(?PassedParm},", &quot

Otherwise you'll have to loop and concatenate the values from the parameter in a formula.

**RESOLVED**

I added a text box to the Crystal Report and populated it from VB using the following line of code:

Report.Text1.SetText cboSort.Text

Makes sense...
