Hi Everyone I am using crystal 10 to develop reports.

I have a situation that I am not sure how to resolve, hence my post.

I have two date fields that are of type string, which I need to compare.
If they are the same "date" then format them as bold.

The formula I have put on {first_tx} but does not work is below.

IF {first_tx} = {last_tx} then
{first_tx} CRBold
{last_tx} CRBold

I get the error the remaining text does not appear to be part of the text.

Thanks in advance

Hhhhmmm ...

I tried putting this formula on {first_tx} but got the remaining text does not appear to be part of the formula.

IF {first_tx} = {last_tx} then
{first_tx} CRBold

Thank you this is now working, and thank you for your patience.
