When looking at the links between tables, they often have little icons (shaped like baseball's homeplate). They can be red, green, yellow, white. Anyone know what the color code is? What is the significance?
 
The symbols indicate that those fields are indexed.

Different colors are supposed to indicate Crystal's best guess as to which fields may be the table's unique indexes. The colors usually don't help much so I don't know the differences. I think a little experimentation with indexes would tell you, if you can't find it elsewhere.

This is all from memory, I usually work with ODBC databases so I don't normally work with these symbols. They only show up in PC-Style dbs like MS-Access.
