Question

When I drag a field from my stored procedure onto a formula (Crystal Reports 11), I get something like this:

{sp_YES_AccountSnapshot;1.ST0405_Ext}

What does the “1.” represent?

I hope it refers to the table number… because I’d like to return two tables from the stored procedure and be able to access both from a report.

Thanks

Answer 1

I believe the semicolon one (“;1”) represents if the sp is active or not in the database.

I opened a report and connected to a datasource I frequently use and all of the sp’s have “;1” except for 2 sp’s which have “;0”. Those sp’s are old sp’s which were deleted and do not show in the SQL Server Management Studio.

I don’t believe that multiple tables can be pulled into a Crystal Report from an sp. When I just tried it on my system Crystal Reports closed out.
