Please HELP!!

Hi all and thank you for your time!

What we currently do: The reports that are created in CR are all published to our CR Srv repository. Each report is than Scheduled and distributed using the File System in Destinations. For the File Name we use 'Use Specific Name', using the placeholders available by CR Server.

The Issue: The issue lies with the File Name since the Use Specific Name does not allow you to use the data within the report.

Is it possible to use the report Data Fields for the Report Title? Or is it possible to set the Report Title in a formula to use the Formula Fields instead?

Here is some basic info about our environment; we have Crystal Reports Designer 2011 (version 14.0.2.364RTM) and Crystal Reports Server 2011.

Thank you for your help!

Thank you Lockwelle.

In the Report Header I have the following as the first text object:

Testing Report - {TestingHeader} {DateTime_From} - {DateTime_TO}

than I have some fields in the details and some special fields in the footer. The report Title in the Document Properties is set to: Title - Summary - Check 4.

When I Schedule the report in CMC, the Destinations is set to send the report to the File System using a name that i set in the File Name which I selected "Use Specific Name". This option does not allow me to use the above text object that I have in the Report Header.

Maybe I did not make my self clear... what I need to change here is the Report Name (title) once its scheduled and published, so, the published report name will read:

Testing Report - Filename Testing Report - 2012-10-02 - 2012-10-02.xls

(please note the date since our data is based on yesterday date)

Currently the report name is using the "Use Specific Name" that I'm setting up in CMC and the name that is being generated in is: Testing File Name-2012-10-03-16-49-23.xls which the name is not what we need.

Thank you,
