Date Night

Difficulty: 🔴🔴⭕⭕⭕

Do dates and date ranges trip you up? This course is intended to reinforce and build your understanding of how to handle dates in your reports. We cover dates and date-times, discrete dates and date ranges. We will review formulas like dateadd() and datediff(), and provide some new toys to play with too. Students will work on two reports, one focused on goods and services, and the other on service restrictions. This 3-hour seminar is intended for people who are already familiar with developing reports in Crystal Reports.
