    Posted: 24 Jun 2008 at 12:57pm
I'm trying to use an array to populate multiple values on my report, but it is only populating the last value in the array.
 
Shared StringVar Array strDxCodes := MakeArray({Query1.CLCL_ID}, {Query1.IDCD_ID});
Local NumberVar iIndex := 0;
Local StringVar strDxList := "";
for iIndex := 1 to UBound(strDxCodes) do
(
    if strDxCodes[iIndex] <> "" then
    (
        Local StringVar Array strDxCodes := split(replace(strDxCodes[iIndex], "'", ""),
".");
        if strDxCodes[1] = {CLM153_CLMS.Claim Identifier} then
        (
            strDxList := strDxList & strDxCodes[2] & chr(10);
        );
    );
);
strDxList;
 
I don't think the carriage return chr(10) works, is there anything else I can use for a carriage return.
 
Can't see the problem, Help.

When you call MakeArray it initializes the array. Thus clearing out any previous values. You should put this declaration in its own formula that only gets called at the beginning of the report (ReportHeader possibly). If you wish to change the size of an array, use 'Redim Preserve' to keep the previous values intact.
 
I have extensive coverage of using arrays in reports, with sample code, in my Encyclopedia book. You can find out more about my books at Amazon.com or reading the Crystal Reports eBooks online.

Oh yeah - try using carriage return + line feed
CHRW(10) + CHRW(13)
