Using Select query, nothing merges onto Crystal report

Question

I have a Crystal template that I am modifying in developer because we are changing the datasource from an Access file to our Oracle DB. I created a database field that accurately connects to Oracle and added a select statement that because pulls a field from a particular table

select s.field from table s; 

On the right hand side, under database fields, I see my command and can right click and browse the data, which right now returns two values.

I also made a formula field using an Azalea barcode function that calls the values (I think, this is where stuff is going wrong, I guess)

The formula field is

BarcodeC39ASCII({Command.field})

So this should take the data and format it into the barcode, except when I use print preview or print out the report, no data is merged.

I've tested this by creating a new formula field with just the Command.field, and still no data is merged. I imagine there is something really obvious that I am missing and would appreciate any input.

Answer 1

So unless I misunderstood your question, you are changing your datasource from Access DB to Oracle DB, correct? Assuming that the database structure remains the same then all you should need to do is go into Database -> Set Datasource Location and set the datasource location from the Access DB to the Oracle DB and your existing report should work as it did. You might have to map some fields, but that should be the extend of it. Is that what you are trying to do?
