I think, it could be leveraged throug parameters

You can create then pass value to the given parameter
oReportDocument.SetParameterValue("ParameterName", DateValue);

take a look on the crystal report articles section, there are a lot of them speaking about how to deal with pramameter

but in my point of vue it is worth to define this from the crystal report itself using crystal syntax as it is simple solution, and you have a lot of wizard those could help you a lot

hi, thanks for your kind information. it is very useful to me. i need another clarification.
1. I bind the record in crystal reports through data set in c#.net windows application. in that some data values are 0 and some negative numbers. I want to suppress 0 values at run time through C#.net coding and the negative values should be in []. eg [-9000]. i want to customize these through .net coding. give some idea about that
