Crystal Reports localization issue

Question

Hi,
I am using Crystal Reports for .NET version 2005. Also, I am utilizing SQL Server 2005 as my database server. The problem is when I deploy applications in Spanish countries (maybe others, but did not try yet). The problem happens when dates are passed to SQL Server 2005, but only through Crystal Report engine.
I guess the question is if there is special need to localize crystal report setup?
Thanks in advance

David,
Thanks a lot for reply!
Here is the code that I use:
                    MachineProductionReport report = new MachineProductionReport();
                    SetReportLogOnInfo(report);
                    ParameterDiscreteValue discreteValue1 = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
                    discreteValue1.Value = dlg.MachineID; <- this has type String
                    report.ParameterFields["@machine_id"].CurrentValues.Add(discreteValue1);
                    report.DataDefinition.ParameterFields["@machine_id"].ApplyCurrentValues(report.ParameterFields["@machine_id"].CurrentValues);
                    ParameterDiscreteValue discreteValue2 = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
                    discreteValue2.Value = dlg.StartDate; <- this has type DateTime
                    report.ParameterFields["@start_date"].CurrentValues.Add(discreteValue2);
                    report.DataDefinition.ParameterFields["@start_date"].ApplyCurrentValues(report.ParameterFields["@start_date"].CurrentValues);
                    ParameterDiscreteValue discreteValue3 = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
                    discreteValue3.Value = dlg.EndDate; // <- this has type DateTime
                    report.ParameterFields["@end_date"].CurrentValues.Add(discreteValue3);
                    report.DataDefinition.ParameterFields["@end_date"].ApplyCurrentValues(report.ParameterFields["@end_date"].CurrentValues);
                    MainReportViewer.ReportSource = report;
The issue is that it works fine in US, but not in Chile ... Everything else works though (passing string, int, etc.)
Thanks in advance!
