Finally got it working! For some reason, it was adding CR Basic DLLs to my app, even though I had upgraded to CR 2008. But now it's all good and I can look into your questions.

Good news and bad news. I figured it out, but there is a bug on the property you need. Display String always returns null. The other condtional formulas work (but it is only a limited set), but not Display String. I'm going to email my contact at BOBJ to see if they are aware of this for a future service pack. Here is the code snippet:


ReportObjects myReportObjects;
myReportObjects = rcd.ReportDefController.ReportObjectController.GetAllReportObjects();
ISCRReportObject myObj;
myObj = (ISCRReportObject)myReportObjects[0]; //use whichever object you want
string myFormula;
myFormula = myObj.Format.ConditionFormulas[CrObjectFormatConditionFormulaTypeEnum.crObjectFormatConditionFormulaTypeDisplayString].Text;

Here is another update (I've obviously have become obsessed with this question for the past two days). I found that the DisplayText and CSSClass conditional formulas always return null for ISCRFieldObject. However, they work fine for formulas. Interesting.

Now I'm off to see if I can figure out your grouping question.

*ping* :)

Any news on the boolean grouping question, or the other questions?

Thanks again!

*ping* Any news yet? It looks like it's been a while since you've been on the forum so I'd understand if you just don't have the time. Just wanted to check in again to see if anything came out of your looking in to the grouping questions... thanks...
