    Posted: 11 Feb 2008 at 3:13pm
I have a report that needs to print different column headings on the drill down report than on the summary report. In crystal enterprise, I could use
drilldowngrouplevel to control whether the headings displayed or not. What do you use in .net ? It doesn't seem to recognize drilldowngrouplevel.

thanks,
Kris

You can't modify the report from .NET once the report starts generating. You have to do that with formulas within Crystal Reports. There are grouping functons you can use to dynamically modify headers and turning sections on and off as a report prints.

Thanks for your response.

I understand that I need to do this within Crystal. In Crystal Enterprise, I had a formula for the heading in Section Expert that looked like this:
IF DrillDownGroupLevel > 0 THEN FALSE
ELSE TRUE

Unfortuneatly, that doesn't work in Crystal .Net. So my question is... is there something that will work in place of it to control the display of the heading ?

thanks again, Kris
