View Full Version : Functions across multiple reports?

Hi! In Crystal I had to create a custom .dll with Visual Basic and I use that function extensively to do some quantities conversions.

In my inventory table I have fields that keep different quantities like ICPROD.EXISTENCIA = 1.02
For me, it means 1 dozen and 2 pieces.

Usually to do sums of columns I need to convert it to pieces, so, this amount in pieces if 14.

I can write a function to do the conversion in VRW (i guess), but as you will notice, I will need to do it hundreds of times across multiple reports.

Question:
1.) Is it possible to create a custom .dll to add my functions to the function list in VRW?
2.) If not (which I think will be the answer), can I create a function and put it on a repository somewhere and just pass it parameters?
3.) If not again, what can I do? If I can't have this functionality, it will be impossible to migrate.

Thanks in Advanced.

Boris,

Currently you cannot do any of them but a solution for it is on our list.

Oh Boy! :(

I think it will not make it for the final release.... maybe after the final release, this year?

What about the Group tree?
