Crystal Calculated field Syntax help

Jim,



Don't know this off the top of my head, but when you get into formula
builder, it's got drop downs for those functions and excellent help. It
should pretty much walk you through the syntax.

Subject: [Vantage] Crystal Calculated field Syntax help





I'm converting a Vantage 6.1 Report Builder report to Crystal XI Release
2 for Epicor 9.04.

I need help with the syntax for a calculated field.

In Vantage 6.1 report builder, the syntax for the calculated field is:

iif(numeric(substring(JobHead.JobNum, INDEX(JobHead.JobNum,'-', 6) + 1))
= ?, yes, no)

What should the syntax be for Crystal Reports?

Thanks,

Jim Moore

I think this is what you want:



if isnumeric(mid({JobHead.JobNum},instr({JobHead.JobNum},"-",6)+1)) =
false then true else false
