------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Nov 3 13:36:36 +0000 2008 ------- n Base, when the database (i.e. the odb file) is created by connecting to a csv file, it seems that you can not use arithmetic operators on fields in a SELECT clause ; oddly enough, you can use trigonometric functions, for instance. For example, SELECT "name", "value" + 5 AS "Result" FROM "Table1" will give a blank result for "Result" if the source if a csv file or a spreadsheet, but will work fine with an HSQL database engine. SELECT "name", SIN("value") AS "Result" FROM "Table1" will work, whatever the source is. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
