I downloaded the SQL Designer. I need version 9 to have the ability to create sql statements as a formula.

Under Crystal help, it says click Field Explorer then click new, then select "SQL Expression Fields". I do see this.

How do I make this work?

 
You're comparing apples and oranges.

The SQL Designer was a bad idea to begin with, and has nothing to do with SQL Expressions.

You need to explain what "I need version 9 to have the ability to create sqL statements as a formula." means. SQL can be used in SQL Expressions, but they are used in conjunction with the SQL created by the report in the interface.

Under the data source listed you may see Add Command, you can use this to paste in SQL as the data source of the report.

You state nothing of requirements, and English appears to be a barrier, so try posting:

crystal version
database/connectivity used
example data
expected output

How do I get the SQL Expression to work. Not Add Command
 
To do what? Please provide more info.

You'll need to post some technical information, in particular your software version and database, and then you need to describe what you want it to do.

The database has to support SQL for instance...

You post, I explain theory and ask technical questions, and you ignore the questions.
