Crystal doesn't use the field names but converts them to an internal code. &nbsp;You can get the change to the database using the VERIFY DATABASE function<br />
<br />
Open the report<br />
CLick DATABASE --&gt; VERIFY DATABASE<br />
<br />
You will be prompted that the database has changed<br />
After clicking OK you will either get DATABASE HAS BEEN UPDATED or a screen allowing you to map fields int he report to the new tables<br />

I am new to Crystal Report and not very proficient with SQL. &nbsp;I have created a report, but one of the tables has changed name, so, for example, field Cust_AddItemInfo.ItemKey needs to be changed to ShowReport.ItemKey<br />
How can this be done<br />
Thanks<br />

Modify field name in Crystal Report

Databases are organized collections of data, most commonly accessed through management systems including schemas, tables, queries and processes that allow users to enter and manipulate the information or utilize it in other fashions, such as with web applications or for reporting purposes.

Databases

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.

Crystal Reports

SQL (Structured Query Language) is designed to be used in conjunction with relational database products as of a means of working with sets of data. SQL consists of data definition, data manipulation, and procedural elements. Its scope includes data insert, query, update and delete, schema creation and modification, and data access control.
