Title: Conditional Formatting Issue
Post by: Desperado on 11 Jun 2007 08:53:39 AM
Hi All,

I have a report in which when a user selects a value from the drop down menu in the prompt page, the report name has to change according to that.
I used a conditional bolck and did it . But the problem now is  i'm displaying asofdate() in the header.
if the user selects option 1, then the date display will be in the form of "mm/dd/yyyy"  and if the user selects option 2 from the drop down , then the display will be "mon dd, yyyy" .
i tried using another conditional block for the report date also . But that isn't working ..... i want the date to be displayed as mm/dd/yyyy

Everything seems to be fine . i checked the data format properties and everything .....

can some one tell me where the exact problem is ???

Thanks in Advance
