Hi
I have a comma separated string field Mail_Prefs that I need to spilt and then create a parameter field in the selection record that looks at the array.Any suggestions?

I can Spilt the field into an array but I can't make that a formula (as the result of a formula cannot be an array that the parameter then references.

Am I better off creating a view that makes the array first somehow and the Crystal parameter then references?

Thanks.

if you want a dynamic LOV in the param defined by the data in the string you will have to use a stored proc or view to extract it and use that as the source.
