It looks like this was never resolved, and I am running into the same issue. I am sure I will find out soon enough if it is preferable to revive this old thread or if I should create a new one, so I will start the process by attempting the former.
I have been using CR 8.5 with Sage MAS 90 3.71 and 4.05 and CR 10 with Sage MAS 90 4.10, 4.20 and 4.30. Adding a Date Parameter Field in CR 8.5 and 10 and the date showing in the Enter Parameter Values dialog appears as mm/dd/yyyy.
However, now in CR XI when I add a Date Parameter (Static) field it has the following text:
'Please enter Date in format "yyyy-mm-dd".'
I just spoke to someone who indicated that her client is unhappy with this change and we are looking for a way within Crystal to have the system allow dates to be entered in the old format of mm-dd-yyyy.
It should be mentioned that there is a Calendar Widget that can be clicked on to use a graphical tool to select the date or dates, but apparently these customers do not want to use that. Also, my CR XI R2 is on SP6.
Thanks,
