I have a pre-existing crystal report and would like to be able to use multiple barcode labels as the input into a parameter that allows multiple values.
When I attempt testing this report, the report runs as soon as i scan the first barcode into the parameter.
I even attempted setting up two parameter fields to enter barcodes in and when i tested this the report ran after scanning the first barcode.
Any enlightenment pro or con would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
I think when you scan, it is passing a newline character value (Enter Key) so, it is running for first scan itself.
Can you try to create a new parameter which should not allow you to pass some value.
So, first parameter will not run for single value.
Thanks,

I have no idea how to proceed at creating a parameter that does not "pass some value". Can you direct me to information about a parameter like this?
