Parameter based on Formula
Does anyone know if it is possible to set a parameter field that is based on a formula field? If it is, how do I do it? I'm in Crystal 8.5.

I answered my own question. I set up a Parameter field and entered the items from my formula, then plugged the Parameter into the Select Expert {@DesigGroup} = {?Affiliate}.

Yes it did, I just didn't tie the Parameter itself to an actual field. It works great.
