Hi,

In crystal report how to show the text field with box style . Means the each character from word should be in separate box .

e.g. umesh is like |U|M|E|S|H

if you know the max size of the string you can code for it, if the string has no max size, you can't do it as CR doesn't like dynamic controls to be created...at least not that has worked for me.
 
I would probably have shared stringvar array variable dimensioned for the max, then in loop set the variable. then where you want to display value, I would have  accessor formulas that would display the correct array value.
