Hi,
I'm working on a project, and I.m wondering if we can generate one report by using 2 database(for exemple Access and dBaseIV)

Exemple: one field in acess divide by one field in dBaseIV .


Thanks in advance
 
This can be done, but the processing will be slower, since all of the linking has to be done by Crystal.

You will have to link the tables together, just the same as if they were from one source. There are also some limits on the links between tables. You will need indexes on the Dbase table to make a link to it. Be careful since some data types are not compatible accross platforms.

But, to answer your question, this is possible. [sig]<p>Ken Hamady<br><a href=mailto:ken@kenhamady.com>ken@kenhamady.com</a><br><a href= Reports Training by Ken Hamady</a><br>[/sig]
