Can I access Report Writer Global fields from Crystal Reports? 1

[mattwennerlund]

I am trying to build a Crystal Report to replace existing ReportWriter pack/pick slip in Sales Order Processing. I see that the Company name and address come from global fields in RW. Can I access those fields from Crystal? I will most likely be using Forms Printer to actually replace the RW report with the Crystal Report. GP v. 9ish, SQL2000.

Thanks,
Matt

Simple Answer is NO.

You might be able to identify where some of the information comes from and access them from SQL tables, but the internal Dexterity global fields are not available outside of the Dexterity Runtime.
