Designing the view of the data

Selecting tables and fields for users

After using the Tables tab to add tables to the dictionary, those tables, and the fields in them, are not automatically available to users. The View tab must be used to expose these fields. The View tab lets you design the actual view of the data that the users will see.

  1. While in the Crystal Dictionary Expert, click the View tab.

  2. Highlight the field you want to make available to users from the Tables & fields from database list.
  3. Click the Add button.

    The field is added to the Headings & fields in View list.

To make a table and all its fields available to users

Highlight the table name in the Tables & fields from database list box, and click Add. The table name becomes a field heading in the Headings & fields in View list box. All fields from the table appear as fields under the new field heading.
