Using a SharedVar in a dateTime function

[sxmnl]

Hi, I have a main report that has a StartTime and EndTime
I have shared these variables to my subReport. To use as a start time and end time in my line chart. Both {@StartTime} and @EndTime are a datetime variable. This is my code below. I keep getting a error that it need a date

Help Please and Thanks

{NUMERICLOG.TIMESTAMP} in DateTime ({@StartTime}) to DateTime ({@EndTime})

What data types are these variables?

{NUMERICLOG.TIMESTAMP} in DateTime ({@StartTime}) to DateTime ({@EndTime})

Assumes that your variables are in a format that will convert to a type datetime (as opposed to just a type date).

You haven't shared any specifics about data types, or what's contained within them, hard to help much without that.

thanks for the response.

{NUMERICLOG.TIMESTAMP}=(DateTime)value
so does the @StartTime and @EndTime that is what it shows.

This is the Format I recieve on my SharedVar

shared datetimevar End = 2/25/2003 9:35:53PM
shared datetimevar Start = 2/25/2003 2:50:33PM

If you need more Info. I will provide it.This is Killing me

Thanks

Are you trying to use these values in the selection formula of the subreport? You can't use shared variables in the selection formula. Ken Hamady, On-site Custom Crystal Reports Training & Consulting
