Displaying date range.

[Jim Kitterman]

I'm very new to stimulreports. I am sure this is a basic question, if i need to pass in lets say a date range start and end, not really in the dataset but i need to display "startdate To endDate" on the report. How would I go about this? I'm reading documentation now but havent seen that scenario yet. Thanks

You can add 2 variables to your Report Dictionary, lets say "StartDate" and "EndDate". set their types to "datetime" when creating.

Then when you call your report from code you could do the following:

Code: Select all

StiReport report = new StiReport();
report.Load("c:\\reports\\DateStuff.mrt");
report.RegData("MyData", MyDataSet);
report.Compile();

report["StartDate"] = DateTime.Today;
report["EndDate"] = DateTime.Today.AddDays(7);

report.Show();

I forgot to mention that you can drag the Variables you create onto the Report Page then so that they will be displayed.

This was perfect, thank you.
