Trying to do report by order date

[John_Davis_(Guest)]

Hello,__I am trying to build a report that prompts for the date range.__I have tried using ripram(sp?) and as you know it only works with strings and characters. I cannot figure out a way except for using (RI query?) to do any sort of prompt for date and user input.__Any suggestions?__John Davis

RIPARAM will only bring back a character string.__But if that string is in date format such as "01/01/2002" you can use the expression:__ctod(riparam("DATE"))__to convert from character to date.____In Version 10 the newer parameteRR field allows specific date field prompting.____Kathleen__R&R Support
