1219043 - Top-N sort displays the previous parameter value instead of the most recent

In Crystal Reports XI, a subreport that contains a Top-N sort based on a formula that uses a parameter linked to the main report, displays the previously entered parameter value.

For example, if the report passes five as the number (N) of records to show, you will see the top five records. If the report is refreshed and now three is passed, the subreport's Top-N sort still shows five values where it should show three.

The issue has been identified and tracked under ID ADAPT00467856.
