Ok, but... why do not link well?. The fields must have equals names? or equals type?
 
Hi,
To link properly, both fields must be the same type and have the same values...

When you link the tables ( in the Visual Linking window)
do you get any warnings?..Does the report run in Designer?

Thanks,
It was a conceptual error with the linked tables
 
Depending upon the tools available, consider using MS Access to link to the different databases/tables, then create a MS Access query (which allows for multiple join types) to expose to Crystal as the data source.
