    Posted: 26 Dec 2012 at 1:15am
I have a problem with the crystal reports.I have a report in which four tables are bound as source to the tables.In those 4 tables one table database fields are used in the formula fields.When I set that formula field on the report I am getting error this error "Unknown Database Connector Error" in the Preview Report.

Suppose when I remove that field or comment the formula code of that field we are not suppose to get that error.I don't understand that error too.

I have written like this in the formula field
if{students.name} = "" then
else
"Student Name : " + {students.name}



I have googled alot but no use.Can any one help me regarding this ?

You don't have anything set between the "then" and "else".  I would change the formula to something like this:

 
if not IsNull({students.name}) and {students.name} <> "" then
"Student Name: " + {students.name}
 
NOTE:  Check for "null" value first - null is NOT the same as a blank string!
