    Posted: 11 Sep 2012 at 11:17pm
Hi,
   I have designed crystal report with visual studio 2005 XML driver connectivity. created report through XML file XSD schema. more than 5 XML file data im having.

i drag & drop the 5 XML file fields in Reports.

i want to display the report data depends parameter from outside report.

ie, if i need,third XML file data means send one parameter for displaying that particular XML data then it will show in viewer.

i confused with send parameter from outside.

how to get particular XML data in viewer.

Thanks in Advance.

As I understood you want to get your data from an XML file
if you want to do that you can see this video, I think it is helpful:

So, if I understand you correctly, although your report connects to 5 different XML files, you only want to show the data from one of them based on a parameter.  Is that correct?
 
Assuming that all five tables have the same number of fields, you would create a formula for each field you want to display and another one for each group you need on the report.  The formulas would be in this type of format:
 
Switch (
{?MyParam} = "1", {Table1.Field1},
{?MyParam} = "2", {Table2.Field1},
{?MyParam} = "3", {Table3.Field1},
{?MyParam} = "4", {Table4.Field1},
{?MyParam} = "5", {Table5.Field1},
True, "Not Found")
 
Use these formulas on the report instead of the actual fields.
