This group is way out of my league, so I hope this is an acceptable question
for you. I am an individual RBase user -not a programmer and have only
intermediate computer knowledge. Though I have used RBase since early Dos
days, my expertise/knowledge of this program is limited only to what I needed
to learn for my personal data entry, forms and reports. So I'm sure 98% of the
complex programming you will be discussing here will be way over my head, but
thought it couldn't hurt to ask for help if I had a few questions. I have the
latest RBase version now.
Question.
Is there any way I can search for rows (or print out report) in a database
table by the actual date the row was entered if the table does NOT have an
autodate column to search by (i.e., does R:Base create a date (hidden) for each
row that is added or modified that is searchable)? I have thousands of rows
and didn't want to take space in the old days for autodate column, and if I try
to add now, will only get the same current date the column is added (invalid
for all previous entries).
Thank you in advance.
