need steps to modify the CSS for viewer/ toolbar

I want to use the CSS stylesheet to modify the viewer/ toolbar.
This may be a dumb question, but can anyone please tell me:
What are the steps to modify the CSS?
Also - please tell me what kind of things I can do with it?
I have been trying to open the CSS in a text editor and playing with
it, with limited success and limited vision of what can be done.
ThanksHere is a little more specific question:
All the properties regarding parameters I see in the CSS are as below.
I want to change the font size of the parameter prompt, and I would
like to put 3 in a row instead of 2. Is that possible?
Actually - I would like to some more... but even if the above is
possible, it would be helpful. Thx
.ParametersFrame
{
border-bottom: 1px darkgray solid
}
.ParamLabelCell
{
padding: 10px;
padding-right: 5px;
vertical-align: baseline
}
.ParamEntryCell
{
padding: 1px;
vertical-align: baseline
}
.ParamsGrid
{
margin: 0px;
padding: 1px
}
.InterParamPadding
{
padding-left: 1px
}|||hey,
ok, sorry to hijack your question, but I am wondering about the same
thing. Something else I'd like to do is add to the toolbar if
possible. For a parameter textfield for a date say, I'd like to place
a calandar control if possible...
Anyone know if it's possible to get at the code for the control
somewhere and hack at it there to make personalised changes?
Also, something else that might sound silly but - even as the report
is being generated there is an animated gif. Anyone know how to
change that?
Thanks...

Maybe there is no way of hacking into the "parameter viewer" but can
anyone please explain what are the things I CAN achieve... with the
current functionality?
I have tried reading the SP1 readme but that does not seem to say
anything.
I want to know this before I decide on building my own viewer.
Thanks

Need One Parm/Main/Subreport/SProc

Hi, I've seen threads discussing this issue but have not seen an answer to my own specific question. I'm working on a simple dumb shell of a report in Crystal 8.5 as a test for how to pass parameters into a sql server 2000 stored procedure via a subreport. I'd like to deliver this as straight Crystal without using vb or other shells to call the report from. I am getting multiple requests from Crystal for the same parameter used in the Main, Subreport, and the Stored Procedure, and I would like to enter this once because it's all the same information.

Eventually I need to modify a copy of a main report with data and about 8 subreports, all pulling from stored procedures using one parameter called ID. I am getting many requests for this ID parameter and I think they're coming from the Stored Procedures, as I am linking the parameters to the subreports OK via subreport links.

The subreport wants to link into the stored procedure using the parameter name from the stored procedure, which is @.ID. The main report only wants to give the subreport a subordinate link such as ?Pm-@.ID. I cannot name the stored procedure parameter with a name like ?Pm-@.ID because it violates the rules of transact-sql. It sees the hyphen as a subtraction. I can see the logic of using the same variable names, but how do I get rid of that bothersome hyphen?

I have also tried using shared variables and they connect to the subreport ok, but I'm still not closing the loop by linking into the stored procedure based on the shared variable.

I am trying to use the same information in multiple places without making the user enter the same information over and over again.

Has anyone had this problem before?Hello? Is anybody here?|||Still searching for a solution, if anybody has some experience with this it would surely be helpful.

Thanks,

Bob
