     Posted: 15 Jun 2010 at 6:20am
I am trying to make a report for a jail system using crystal reports 10 that displays inmates that were in jail during a specific range of dates entered through start date and end date parameters.  The problem is our jail system only records the date the inmate came to jail and the date he left, with no data in between.
 
So if I was to enter a start date of 7/1/09 and an end date of 6/1/10 how would I make inmates with a jail commit date of 5/5/09 and a release date of 6/11/10 show on the report?  Also if they dont have any release date could I still have them show up on the report?

You have to write your select statemnt to handle the instances you want to include. I think this will work:
@startdate in table.startdate to (if isnull(table.enddate) then today else table.enddate)
or
@enddate in table.startdate to (if isnull(table.enddate) then today else table.enddate)

After reviewing the report in more detail while it has almost everyone that needed to be on there.  For some odd reason some people that should be in there aren't showing up.  It seems people that have commit and release dates that fall within the set parameters are not displaying on the report, for example...
 
Start Date Parameter set to 7-1-07
Release Date Parameter set to 6-30-08
 
Inmates Commit date - 9-13-07
Inmates Release date - 3-12-08
 
(Edit)
Directly after posting that I realized adding
 
or
@table.startdate in @startdate to @enddate
or
@table.enddate in @startdate to @enddate

 
to the previous code seems to work.
