Hello,

I am new to Birt Reporting, and I need help in finding out how to create a
value/expression.

In crystal report it's setup this way:

Local StringVar Record := "";
Record := (Left ({table.record},2));

Record;

What syntax do I need to set this up in birt.

Thanks,

Lura

Hi Lura. I think you'll have better luck at the eclipse.birt forum. I've
copied this reply to that forum for you. Mark
