Is it possible to populate CR with MSFlexgrid data?

[downunder39]

I don't want to use a database for my data source but a flexgrid to loop through and take those values for the report's fields.

I don't know where to start for this, I would presume it requires unbound fields but what next?

What is the source of the flexgrid data?

What version/edition of Crystal?

Your post is suspect, as you know, the flexgrid isn't a datasource, so you might create data based on that is in it and pass that data to the report, but this is dependent on many things that a one sentence post doesn't begin to convey.

Thanks for the reply. You are correct, the flexgrid is populated from a MS Access database but is it done so from the user's choice and is then saved to another database table.

It is a bit difficult to explain but much of the information is saved to the database in a comma delimted string and the separate values are then retrieved later by breaking up the saved string using a 'split' method. I am, therefore, unable to use this database table with Crystal because it only accepts a field as a whole and it would just be too difficult to split it up for this purpose.

Basically, all I want to do is loop through the flexgrid before the info is saved to the database and populate the Crystal report with that information for printing purposes. The database, therefore does not come into the equation.
