Question

I use a string file in SQL to create a report in crystal reports. The problem is that crystal reports is not interpreting the page breaks. Is there a split function that can search through a string and every time Owner no. occurs, split the string into a new record? The string are large,(above 1000 characters).
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Place in Details section:

//{@block 0}
Local Stringvar CRLF := Chr(10)+Chr(13);

If Instr({table.field}, CRLF) Then
  Split({table.field}, CRLF)[1]
Else
  {table.field}

insert this formula its own Details section; mark section ‘suppress when blank’ and ‘new page before’:

//{@block 1}
Local Stringvar CRLF := Chr(10)+Chr(13);

If Instr({table.field}, CRLF) Then
  Split({table.field}, CRLF)[2]
