Linking table dynamic_field_value to another table associated with a specific ticket for reporting purposes

Hi We have added an extra text field called comments in the Additional ITSM field of our tickets to be used as a quick status update, we then want to use SQL Server Reporting Services to pull this information through and link it to the specific ticket it is associated with. I have identified that the text I enter in to comments box shows up in the table dynamic_field_value in the value_text column and has an associated field_id of 46 What I cannot work out is how to associate this to the specific ticket the comment was entered in to so I can pull this info forward to SRSS Any ideas/suggestions?

dynamic_field_value has an object_id which is either the ticket.id or the
article.id, depending on the type of object represented by the dynamic
field. The dynamic_field_value.field_id maps to dynamic_field.id and
dynamic_field.object_type determines Ticket or Article.
It is really important for anyone who follows this to not change the
object_type once set, because the object_id in dynamic_field_value doesn't
know the difference between ticket.id=2 and article.id=2, and therefore the
values will apply where you don't expect.
