Crystal Reports

[anishnair]

Friends ,

I am working with windows application with C#.As i am new to crystal reports am having a doubt.
Iam displaying the report fom dataset by passing two parametes.
After passing these two parametes i am binding the data into a dataset. The code is given below

Dataset ds1=new Dataset();
rptwithItemDetails cr = new .rptwithItemDetails();
cr.SetDataSource(ds1.Tables[0]);
crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = cr;
crystalReportViewer1.Refresh();

So when the report loads it will load from the dataset.
My requirement is that i have to set some report heading in every report(4 fields).
So i am fetching that details from my database table and loaded into another dataset say 'ds2'.

How to pass that values in the dataset as paremeters for setting report heading.

Or can i choose any other option? (Note that the report heading have four fields which is fetching from database table)
Please help me .
Thanks a lot in advance.

[prajaktaran]

You can take it either while designing a crystal report from toolBox- TextBox Object
or

If you want to combine the text from number of tables then u have to add that table and then add the field u need.

I hope it will help u.

DataSet can have many tables. Instead of using another DataSet add report header details to that second dataset table and pass the whole dataset not only the first table
