Hi All,

I have a crystal report document which is opened from my asp.net 2.0 application (C# code). In the design time i fixed my date fields as MM/dd/yyyy format.

but now we are going to implement the project in different culture. so now i need to change the format of date field at run time thru asp.net 2.0 (C#).

Help is highly appriciated.

Thanks in Advance.

hi all,

i got solution for this problem.

when we need to change the format of a date field or number field or string field, we can use the parameters.

Do the following to format the date field.

1. create a parameter that accepts number values.

2. Right click on your date field and choose format field.

3. go to the datetime tab and click on the formula section for "Order".

4. insert your parameter here and save.

5. now the selected date field is formated as per the given format

6. 0 - YMD; 1-DMY; 2-MDY. these are the numbers can be given by the parameter from your application.

Hello, I am trying to build a Crystal report VisualStudio.NET for an ASP.NET application. I would like to build a report that doesn't connect to any particular database at design time because I am planning to pass a dataset to the report at runtime. From what I have read, it sounds like unbound fields might be the answer. However, I am having trouble figuring out how to bind these unbound fields to my dataset at runtime.

I have recently created a report in crystal(10) linking to a dataset as the datasource. I notice however that the fields available in the report all have STRING format and therefore i cannot change format in crystal(10) e.g. I wish to change a date field to have the format dd/MM/yyyy. The main problem here is that the dataset seems to store data only as string. Is there anyway i can avoid this. Many thanks,

Is there a way to change the "print date" field in vb/vb.net code? I have a report that uses keywords like "MonthToDate" and "YearToDate" to genereate the report, I want to be able to change the relative date to those fields. Basically exactly like the "set print date and time" dialog box under the reports menu in crystal reports designer. So far I have: Dim cr As New ReportDocument cr.Load("report.rpt")

Hello I am creating some crystal reports (for visual studio 2005) based on the content of certain .NET objects. I'm doing this in .NET 2.0. For one of them I'm using a Cross-table to summarize the information of a bunch of objects. The actual data is numeric. Since these reports are meant to be flexible number formatting must be configured as defined by the requirements. For example, sometimes the values will have to be rounded to 5...
