Hi,

I'm trying to assign a Shared DateTimeVar a date value in a SubReport but when I do this it blanks the entire report out so nothing at all is displayed in preview.
 
The sub & main report is not linked.
 
If I comment out the assignment only, the report works!
 
If I copy the code to the main report & run it from there, it works!
 
This is the code:
 
Shared DateTimeVar myTime;
myTime :=  {Resource.EmploymentStartDate}; // if I comment this, it works.
myTime; // and of course comment this as well
 
I have set up the same data connection in the main report for testing purposes only. It works in the main report fine.
 
What is going on here?
 
Thanks very much for any ideas on this.
