How can i write a custom function in crystal reports so that the function returns a value based on the argument provided to it. This function should be able to query a database table.

I don't think you can do it like that.  You'll need to include the table in the tables in your report and join to it appropriately.

I worked around this one. I created a new field in the table and populated that through code and then used it in the report.
