Textbox in Crystal Reports
I have a question:
Is it possible to create a Textbox in Crystal Reports, write texts in the InfoView/LaunchPad and in the same report generate output of these text?
This is how I picture this in theory:
Textbox in Crystal
Add some text
Click on send button
Text is sent to SQL database
Crystal reads out text from the database
Crystal hands over this text to the report
Can anyone help me?
Re: Textbox in Crystal Reports
If you add a parameter to your report, then when you run the report a prompt will be displayed and ask the user to enter something. This entry will be used to filter the generated report.
You need to tell us what programming language and what CR version your using.

Hi,
Is it possible to do this without programming?
I am using CR 2008.
I don't need to filter the report, i just want to add a text to the published report in the InfoView.
And I also need to save the Text anywhere, for example in a SQL Database.

Put a Textbox on a form.
Save whats entered into the TextBox to the database.
Run the report using the data from the database.

And, NO you can't change the text of a report when its display in the report viewer.
