Fields that are not acessible in the Field tree... 1

[Fursten]

Anyone knows why my database fields which type is "memo" are not acessible in the Field Tree when I´m trying to make a formula?

Thank you

I see in the book Crystal Reports, the Complete Reference,
"Memo and BLOB fields can only be placed on the report for display...They won't even show up in the Formula Editor Field Tree Box."

So, you can see 'em but that's about all.

If you need to base a formula on the contents of a Blob or memo field, try doing it before the data gets to the Crystal Report. Like in a Stored procedure or something.

In what respect to events, the problem is this: I want my program to do some lines of code when the user close one of my crystal reports window. To do that I need to access crystal events.

I read crystal help and it says that I would need to declare some instances of the object I need like this(I declare them in the form were I put crystal object - active X, something like: cystalreports1)

Public withevents repevents as report
Public withevents wndEvents as window

Problems: report and window type doesn´t exist!
if I choose crystal.reports type I don´t get data type errors but I will not be able to get the promissed events :
That´s way I thought they were not competible with Visual Basic 6.0

Well... thank you again
