I have a report of rebate information and it has a date paratmeter set up for the user to input the start and end date [includes date selected] ... 1/1/2013 to 3/31/2013.
 
When the report prints, I would like the date parameter from the user, to print in the header next to the report title.
 
Rebate Report        1/1/2013 thru 3/31/2013          [today's date]
 
How do I get the parameter to print? I'm sure it involves a text box with the field in it but I can't get it to work.... it just prints the name of the field.

Thanks much!
Minco

I solved my own question. I created a formula called PrintParam and used this formula:

Totext(Minimum ({?InvoiceDate}),"MM-dd-yyyy") +

" to " +

Totext(Maximum ({?InvoiceDate}),"MM-dd-yyyy")

 
I inserted the formula field in the page header where i wanted it, and it's been working beautifully!
