sql - Crystal Reports: Link table from formula field -
i need find out if can link 2 unrelated tables via formula field in crystal reports. can done? if not, need figuring out solution.
details:
table_a contains string "comment" field. comment field contains random words , unique invoice number. have created formula field within crystal split out unique invoice number, data ready linked table_b via unique number, if possible. haven't found way proceed, , don't think it's possible.
in case not possible, suppose need pull necessary data table_a, split out invoice number, , create temporary table prior pulling data , table_b crystal, correct? while have basic sql experience, have no idea how go doing that. appreciated.
i'm on crystal xi , use mas 200 erp 4.4
thanks in advance.
not directly, no.
options:
- use subreport - 1 table in main report, other in subreport; create formula field convert 1 of field's value match other; link on field
- create sql view work; use view instead of 2 tables
- use command link 2 tables
