Crystal Reports - Linking to IC Optional Fields - 12/11/12 09:44 PM

Hello:
In Crystal Reports, how do I link from the IC Items table to the matching records in Item Optional Fields? Maybe it's the late hour and I'm missing something obvious. The item numbers in the Optional Fields table are preceded by "999999" (for instance, Item "ABC" appears there as "999999ABC"). Thank you.

OK, it was the late hour! sleep And since I can't see how to delete my earlier posting, I'll answer it myself. The linking works fine with no special effort. My report appeared to not work because I used Optional field 1 (consistently blank) but the client had used Optional field 2. Once I corrected my report, the proper information appeared.
