Hi, In crystal report how to show the text field with box style . Means the each character from word should be in separate box . e.g. umesh is like |U|M|E|S|H Umesh chape

Hello, This is a forum for Microsoft Reporting Services, not for (Seagate) Crystal Reports. You should post your question to a CR forum like http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/Forum/default.aspOlaf Helper * cogito ergo sum * errare humanum est * quote erat demonstrandum * Wenn ich denke, ist das ein Fehler und das beweise ich tglich Blog Xing

Thanks Olaf . Is this possible with Microsoft Reporting Services and How ? Umesh chape

Yes, it's possible. You create severale textboxes on the report; as much as required and this assume you have a known maximum of characters in the text (e.g a bank identifier code with 8 chars) In each textbox you use an expression like = GetChar(Fields!Bic.Value, 5) to get the char to show; here the fifth char.Olaf Helper * cogito ergo sum * errare humanum est * quote erat demonstrandum * Wenn ich denke, ist das ein Fehler und das beweise ich tglich Blog Xing
