Hi,

I have a requirement where as user will choose the from and to dates based on which the data has to be displayed. I have created the Calender Object for From Date and To Date with the Expression/Database field. But what ever the date i am choosing in From Date the same is reflecting in To Date and Vice Versa.

Also i have tried creating the Calender Object using the variable where as by providing the min and Max value. But calender is showing only one month where as there is large amount of date is there .Almost three years.

Can somebody help me how to over come this.

Hi,

I guess you are using the same field in both the calendar object. Create a seperate date field from the existing table and keep it as a stand alone table. So now you will have 2 date fields (1st in the original table and 2nd from new stand alone table)

Use these two fields in each calendar object and map them to two variables. Use these variables in the set expression to calculate the value for the date range.

Hope this resolves your issue.

Hi Haneesh,

Thanks for your response. Thats true i am using the same field for the From Date and To Date. Are you saying even if i am going to use the variable the From Date and To Date should not be on the same field.

I am used your solution using by creating the calender table for testing and it is working. I will replicate based on the database field and update the forum.

Yes, you cannot use the same field to select different values in two objects. Because, when you select a date in first object the field selection will be the same in the other object also, since they both refer the same field

Send your document so that we can work on it. It it is too confidential just load only the date field from database source and send it. It will be easy for us to work with it.

If not try to scramble the data and send it.
