Hi,I have two parameter from a stored procedure: @StartDate and @EndDate. I have it so the user runs a report and selects the start and end date based the discharge date. In my SSRS report header I want it to read 'Discharge Status [@StartDate] to [@EndDate]'. This works but I don't want the time to show. I tried to format them such as =Month(@StartDate) but get an error message. Any idea how to format the date in a header and exclude the time.Chuck Chuck W |

I don't have the report environment in front of me, but I believe you can put DateFormat(@StartDate, 2) and get a shortdate format. (if that doesn't work, try the same thing with FormatDate(@StartDate, 2))Hey, it compiles. |

Thanks. I am new to SSRS and am used to Access reports. I tried typeing in Discharge Status Between DateFormat(@StartDate, 2) and DateFormat(@EndDate, 2) into the report header. When I ran the report, it can out just liked I typed it (I tried FormatDate too). I then put =DateFormat(@StartDate, 2) into a text box but got an error. Do I need a text box to get this to work. Any idea what I am doing wrong? ChuckChuck W |
