Limiting Maximum selection in BOXI Multivalued parameter - crystal-reports

I have a BOXI report that uses a multi-valued parameter. My requirement is to limit the selection of values to 20 (maximum input by users can not be more than 20).
Can someone please suggest a way to accomplish this?

Crystal Report: Get Minimum Date

I have this concern using Crystal Report which I am not really familiar with. Here's my scenario:
I have an existing report to update, I need to add a column (ETA) which has a datetime value. It may return more than one rows per Item No, I need to get the minimum date only per Item No from the result rows.
I already tried some solution mentioned here http://scn.sap.com/thread/1952829 but found no luck.
I used a suppression formula for the Details section of the report, but haven't succeeded yet.
IF {TableName.DateField} = Minimum({TableName.DateField}) THEN FALSE ELSE TRUE
Any possible things you can suggest me to try? Thanks in advance for this :)
good to get this value from sqlserver side. you just create a function which return a single data (minimum date).
If you wish in crystal report side, it is something you make loop of hundred for a single row display. You can use running total field for this.
Select the field , select summary type and put into the detail section.
or you can create a formula with group name option like
Minimum({TableName.DateField})

please check
Running total field gives options for Min, Max, etc. but not Sum

Limit of the size of lists for customer parameters in crystal

Customer list cannot be bigger than 1000 items in crystal report.
Any way of getting round this with changing registry setting below ?
To display more than the default 5 pages (or 1000 rows) add the following key to the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Crystal
Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV
Then add the following String Value:
MaxRowsetRecords
Set MaxRowsetRecords to the desired value. As far as I can tell there is not a value that can be used to allow an unlimited number but it will allow more than what I currently have a need for. Hopefully that helps others searching for this wonderfully undocumented feature.
This registry change setting works and is the solution for this .

How to get the design in iReports

I want the below design in iReports where column is generated dynamically based on a formula.
How can this be done? Please suggest.
You can use list component to achieve this.
I suggest that you use the crosstab component.
The crosstab allows you to set a data source for printing the columns.
The problem is, I don't know (and maybe it is not possible) to dynamically adjust the column with. If the number of columns varies in size your report will not have always the same layout.

Parameters and Ranges of Values

I need to create a report in Crystal 2008 and I've haven't developed a report using Crystal in many years.
When the user runs the report, I want them to be able to enter a start date and end date. I assume I can do this by using parameters. My question is this. Can I do this with a single parameter value or will it require two parameter values? Ideally what I would like to do is to allow the user to enter a start and end date in one parameter/prompt combination. Is this possible?
Thanks - Randy
This is possible and what your talking about is a ranged parameter value.
Create an parameter in Crystal Reports
set the type to Date
In the options Area. you will see a option called Allow range values. Set this to true.
