Use Database Fields in Report Title

[ixscr]

Please HELP!!

Hi all and thank you for your time!

What we currently do: The reports that are created in CR are all published to our CR Srv repository. Each report is than Scheduled and distributed using the File System in Destinations. For the File Name we use 'Use Specific Name', using the placeholders available by CR Server.

The Issue: The issue lies with the File Name since the Use Specific Name does not allow you to use the data within the report.

Is it possible to use the report Data Fields for the Report Title? Or is it possible to set the Report Title in a formula to use the Formula Fields instead?

Here is some basic info about our environment; we have Crystal Reports Designer 2011 (version 14.0.2.364RTM) and Crystal Reports Server 2011.

Thank you for your help!

Just drag field into a text box and place on Report header.

NB data used will be first record found in report.

Hi Ian and thank you for your reply.

The fields are in the report header but when I publish the report the Report Name is not using the report header title.

Thanks,

Sorry misunderstood you.

Thought you meant in Report Header section.

You might get an answer if you post in Crystal Enterprise forum, as that is very similar to functionality of Crystal Server.
