Tony, You can NOT pass parameters directly to Crystal reports.
However, you can pass parameters to a VB program which can start your Crystal Report and give the parameters to the report. I was going to demonstrate this at the Developers conference, and if I can get it working good enough package it up and sell it. It is not very easy to do, but can be done with the right tools, patience, and time. Since the conference was postponed, I have not finished it. I do have all of the pieces written to do it, they just all need to be put together.
