Help! I just started work for a firm that has created several regularly run
reports using Crystal, but no one here can tell me how to generate them.
Each report has a sample with and without data. I cannot figure out how to
create a new report. It looks like sample reports are populated with data
from something called spRptUSWCSLineAnnualCompEI. I assume its a table or
command of some kind.

I have tried to generate one annual report, and was prompted to enter a date
parameter, but without luck. Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Are you trying to run the Crystal Report from the Crystal Report
software itself or from an application? I use several reports that
will not run properly unless I run them from the vb.net desktop
application I have them written in. Form the app I usually have
written in some tool like a date-time picker or some other way of
passing a variable into the report. If I don't run it from the app it
doesn't get the variable necessary to generate the report's
parameters. So I was just wondering which way your's was designed...
maybe I can help.
