About the Map Fields dialog box

The Map Fields dialog box contains four list boxes:

For each database field that you have changed, highlight the report field and the database field in the upper sections and click Map. The field names move from the upper boxes to the lower boxes.

You do not have to remap every report field. For example, if you delete a database field, it is not necessary to remap its corresponding report field, since you will not need that field in your report. You can click OK to close the dialog box without remapping each field listed in the upper-left box.

On some occasions, you might want to unmap or unlink report and database fields that you have already mapped. For example, you might mistakenly map the wrong fields or want to map a report field to a database field that you already mapped. In these cases, you can select a report field in the lower boxes (the program then automatically selects the database field) and click Unmap. The field names will move from the lower boxes to the upper boxes.

Note:    Crystal Reports does not automatically refresh the report data when you close the Map Fields dialog box. To refresh your data, click Refresh on the Standard toolbar.
