Is Empid identical in both of the files you are linking, Ie. is it the same data type and the same length?

Thanks for replying, Here some more information.<br><br>In Employees is&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;EmpId a Autoincrement field.<br>In Transaction is EmpId a Long integer field.<br>In Crystal Reports is the link connection from Employees to Transaction.<br><br>The report will still working untill new colums are add to the Table Transactions.<br>A few reports don't have the Link Error problem.<br>Many reports get after adding a Link error, but the link is still there.<br>A few reports lost the link after the Link error.<br>The structure/Link-connection off all these reports are the same.<br>
