However, when I added the SO_Invoice.Wrk table, and added the field ExtendedDescriptionText to the report, it resulted in an error when trying to print. What am I doing wrong?

Oops, I spoke too quickly. I do not have the extended description appearing in my report. I do have only one page, though. I thought perhaps I needed to also link CI_Item, but that generated multiple pages again.
If you add your UDF to the report do you have data in it? I am wondering if that actually contains the data we think it should.
If it were me here is what I would try next...
I would have the BM_GrossReqrmntWrk, CI_Item, and CI_ExtendedDescription tables. Clear your existing links and relink them like this:
I am assuming you want the extended description for your component item codes... It is important to note that for the link between CI_Item.ExtendedDescriptionKey > CI_ExtendedDescription.ExtendedDescriptionKey I have used a Left Outer Join, if you do not use a left outer join you will only see records for items that have extended descriptions. I am assuming not every item in your system does.
When placing the extended description on the report it is important to have it in a section where it would be directly linked to an item. For example in the details section, or in the ComponentItemAndRevision group.
Hope this helps.
