Textobject, for example

dim tb as craxdrt.textobject     set tb=rpt.sections(2).reportobjects("text1") ' page header section     tb.left=somevalue     cr.refreshex false ' false means we dont want to reload data from database

there rpt is xraxdrt.report and cr is crystal report viewer control.

hi Goran
thank u for reply
i fount a way else for doing it,i mean creating reports at run time .
i mean we create the whole of report by coding
but i dont know more about your code i think your idea some differ from my idea .i want you send me some more information about your code .
thank u more and more

I always work with external reports, therefore rpt object represent this external report. Every report has sections, and these sections can be accessed through their indeces/names. Every section has collection of report objects, and they can also be access through their indeces/names. So I dont see what is it that you didnt understand? Since you say you are building report in runtime, then you are aware of all these objects....

hi Dear
so how we can pass this setting to report ?by formula or other thing?
and can we use several formula?
thank u more and more

I dont understand you. You are working here with CR objects, therefore, everything you change on this objects will reflect crystal report when previewing it. The only thing you need to know is what section is the object in, what is the name (index) of the object to change it properties in runtime.
