I would like to add the terms to SO-C.  In SD-M I have Packing Slip format number 6.  Can I assume that since the  only available changes in edit RTM files is BKsoc1.rtm, BKsoc2.rtm, BKsoc3.rtm and BKsoc4.rtm that I can not make this change?  How do you add additional new info in change forms?

The only potentially time consuming part is trying to identify the field you want and then verify that the table is being opened by the print program. Other than that it is really very straight forward:
 
Click the DBText button.
Click on the form where you want it.
Double-click the empty space to the right of "DataField" in the right pane.
Select the table you need using the drop-down box.
Double-click the field you want.
Format and position precisely if desired.

I have a suggestion to propose to you the users...
 
We have (all be it, outdated) list of files and fields on our web site. If a group of users gets together and assigns modules to one another, then you the users could come up with an updated list of files and fields in a short time. Whatever  you are missing we could fill in. This would help out all the users  who are trying to do Crystal and/or RTM editing.  
 
The one on our web site took us a long time to get to where it is, but we have no one to maintain it, so it has become outdated.  
 
 
This is just a suggestion, but I think it would help you all.

While we're on the subject, a place for users to share their hacks (SQL, RTMs, Crystal Reports, Web programs, MS Queries, etc.) would be a good thing if policed at least as well as the rest of this board.

Getting a list of the fields is not too hard. Coming up with a description of the field is a bit more time consuming. Even more useful would be adding notes to fields like BKIC.MSTR.UOH saying "Sum of Location records (BKICLOC) and should agree with transaction register (INVTXN)", etc.

Yes, I'd still really like to see this too!

We are working on a new Evo~ERP web site, that will have a place to share user programs like RTM's and Crystal and access or whatever.
 
 

I did some checking into this and I've got a question:
 
BTrieve (terrible as it is) still has support for putting a description to each field of each database file. This would allow the descriptions of fields to be stored right in the database itself so that in the screen and report editors the descriptions will pop up right along with all of the fields. So why don't we add the descriptions right in there rather than waste time with an external file? Wouldn't it make sense to store the descriptions right in where they'd be of the most use? Someone at DBA has already put some field descriptions in but very few are filled in.
 
All this and more can be yours now for the low, low price of.... FREE. All people have to do is download TAS7i from addsum to get the data manager. Or, ISTech could get permission to distribute wtasdmgr.rwn which is all that's needed to muck about with the file descriptors in Evo.
