New to Crystal Reports.
I have a date opened field and  a date closed field.
I need to select those records that have a closed date<= 30 days of the created date.
 
I have tried everything I know of and then some.
 
I am sure it is a very simple calc. and there are functions that are available.
 
Any help at this point will be HUGELY appreciated.
