I've built a report that works great in Crystal 11. It has 2 parameters, 1 dynamic and 1 static. When I run it from within Crystal, I get the Parameter window and I have one dropdown listbox for the dynamic parameter and another one for the static one. When I save the report then attempt to run it from our application though, the static parameter works fine but the dynamic one is changed to a Discrete Value that requires me to type in the name of the field instead of clicking on a value in a list of choices.
The data that is reported on is from a Microsoft Jet database (Access) and a new one is built whenever the user presses the Print button on the report window. This local database is built before the report is actually called. Does anyone know why I'm unable to see my listbox when I run this report from within our app, but it works fine in Crystal?

Thanks,

Mike

Well, I've got both versions on my machine (XI and 2008) and I tried to create this report in 2008 first and it didn't work there either. When I would run it there it would work great the first time I ran it in Crystal but if I saved it then ran it again I would get a login box wanting my Username and Password. Got the same thing over in our app too. That was pretty frustrating so I decided to try to build the same report in CRXI to see if I got the same results. Well, I don't have a login prompt but I don't get my pick list so it's still not working the way it should.
I've been working with Crystal for about 12 years now and have NEVER had a problem with getting prompts for login information as the data is always stored locally on the computer in the same folder as the .rpt.
