Hi,
I have now purchased & updated licence pro version so that l can use runtime parameters to email reports to specific users.
Report runs and displays data based on parameter in Crystal reports as expected
Report runs in and displays data based on parameter Logicity Desktop as expected
Report produces runs but produces no data when run via solution builder / workspace mode / scheduled task to email.
Reports with no parameters work as expected.
Parameter is formatted 'lastname, firstname' (includes the comma)
Have tried wrapping in quotes , both single and double (',")
After what seemed to be a perfect solution for what l needed, is this a waste of money.
Looking for a solution
Regards,

Colin

Hi Colin,

The "," is a special character that a Logicity Parameter will not accept. Would it be possible to write a formula in Crystal to rip the comma out of the field with a replace? If this is an issue for you that will keep you from utilizing the benefits of Logicity Pro please email me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and we will issue you a refund. Thanks!!
