Friends ,

I am working with windows application with C#.As i am new to crystal reports am having a doubt.
I am displaying the report from dataset by passing two parameters.
After passing these two parameters i am binding the data into a dataset. The code is given below

C#

Dataset ds1=new Dataset();
rptwithItemDetails cr = new .rptwithItemDetails();
cr.SetDataSource(ds1.Tables[0]);
crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = cr;
crystalReportViewer1.Refresh();

So when the report loads it will load from the dataset.
My requirement is that i have to set some report heading in every report(4 fields).
So i am fetching that details from my database table and loaded into another dataset say 'ds2'.

How to pass that values in the dataset as parameters for setting report heading.

Or can i choose any other option? (Note that the report heading have four fields which is fetching from database table)
Please help me .
Thanks a lot in advance.

Solution 1

You can use Parameter in report

Or

Add a Text box in the header of the report.
Change the "Name" of the Text box to say "txtHead"

Now in your application write those code

Dim objText As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.TextObject
objText = rptReport.Section4.ReportObjects("txtHead")
objText.Text = ds2.tables(0).rows(0)("HEADER")

Note this code is in VB.Net. Please convert it in C# in your way

Please give code in C#

Well, if the answer satisfies you (other than language), use any VB to C# and convert it. Expecting exact code is not good, a direction has been given to you, try out now.
There are lots of free VB to C# converters on internet. Just Google it!
