connect two tables without a proper foreignkey in crystal reports 2013 -
i have 2 tables in report.
one has string field called product group stores , array of values:
table 0:
product_group 12,23,01,44 table 1:
product_code description 12 "sandles" 23 "high heels" 01 "runners" the table holds description has record each product group code , can run when field value, ie dept = "shoes".
my question how link tables if 1 array , 1 string?
any appreciated.
the best solution redesign tables bit:
category:
id description 1 "runners" 12 "sandles" 23 "high heels" product:
id name 1 "pink sandles" 2 "air runners" product category:
productid categoryid 1 12 2 1 this allow join tables want.
otherwise, you'll have this:
- use subreport create associated array (two arrays: 1 ids; 1 descriptions); pass these arrays main report via shared variable
- create formula parse comma-delimited string, substitute value in description array, using position of id stored in id array.
