String Variable Pass Through

CA Forum: Formula

Good Afternoon,

Our company is currently switching from Crystal 8 to Crystal 11.

The previous report have been going smoothly however i've run across a couple that seem to have a similar issue.

Both contain the use of StoreStringVar and FetchStringVar to pass formating information from the primary reports to the subreports.

As of this moment i've been unable to find a similar type of formula utilized in Crystal 11.

I will continue to review the forums here in hopes of finding a solution, however I will also ask here.

sys.StoreFormat

//This stores the value from the sys.Format formula to be passed into the subreport for the conditional formatting.StoreStringVar ("strFormat", {@sys.Format});

sys.FetchFormat

//This fetches the value that is passed from the main report for the conditional formatting.FetchStringVar ("strFormat");

Above are the two corisponding formulas as found in the current reports.

Any help deciphering this little mystery and solving how to work this properly with C11 would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Lewis "In over my head"/
