Topic: Select Expert help Posted: 22 May 2007 at 4:06am
Hi, Im totally new to crystal reports and I wanna know if ts possible to use visual basic variables in the select expert of CR.
I have a public variable .Public globalSocialSec As String. in a Module of my visual b project.
As my formula i have this: {Students.SegSoc} = "globalSocSec.text"
But this obviously is not comparing the globalSocSec variable contents with the data in students table. How can I solve this? is there an expression to pick up the contents of my VBasic project variable?
