    Posted: 21 Jun 2012 at 6:18am
I have a SQL statement that I can see in MS Query returns the records that I need. I have a Crystal Report that someone else created that has the format I need. I do not want to use the database expert. I want to enter my SQL Statement directly into Crystal Reports (v10 by the way). I don't want to pick through the brooken inner and outer joins in the crystal reports database expert. I want to paste the known working query in. There has GOTTA be a way to do that.
 
Thanks

P.S. It has been a really long time since I have used this, so please be patient! :)

I do not have v10 installed anymore, but you should be able to put the query into a command if you are using an ODBC connection (Database, Database Expert, Create New Connection?,ODBC Name, New Command ).  If you are using an OLE DB connection, you should be able to create a New Command.  I am not sure about other data sources.
