    Posted: 14 Jul 2010 at 5:09am
Hello,

I am trying to display a specific date time in my report based upon a start date parameter entered.  For example, if the user enters a start/open date of 7/1/10 hh:mm:ss, then in the report I want it to display 6/30/10 11:59:59 PM, the previous date at 11:59:59.

Is there a simple formula that will do this?

Thanks in advance and let me know if I've posted in the place.
