Crystal Reports for Rational Application Developer Designer Guide

To link to/from a formula field

  1. Create the primary report using a table that includes the Social Security Number field.
  2. Create a subreport using the formula that extracts the Social Security Number from the Employee ID field (for this example, {@EXTRACT}).
    For more information, see Inserting subreports.
  3. Place the subreport where you want it to appear in the primary report.
  4. Link the subreport to the primary report by linking the Social Security Number field in the primary report ({file.SSN}) to the formula that extracts the number in the subreport ({@EXTRACT}).
    For more information, see Linking a subreport to the main report without modifying the selection formula.
