We have successfully linked the POForm with other Vantage tables/fields via ODBC. I've heard of others doing the same thing with the Traveler in Vantage. You have to use a subreport to do so, and currently you also need to use the third-party Merant ODBC drivers rather than the SQL-92 drivers that come with Vantage. If you have the Merant drivers, or just want to know how it's done, I can give you more details. I have heard that the Error 599 with the SQL-92 drivers may be fixed in a future patch as the root problem has now been discovered. Whether the fix will be in Vantage 5.1 or 5.2 I don't know.

When you say modified custom form, did you add any new tables and did
the linking...if so...can you tell me how to modify the existing
custom report to add new tables and fields from them ??

be longer than ours. We have about 4 lines of text. I found it best
for our Dot Matrix printer to put the text into Four separate
formula's -- one formula per line. The text is simply in quotes in
the formula.
