Alastair,

Does the column expression defined in "ConComp" database
(as mentioned below) work on your end?

CONNECT ConComp
INSERT INTO AllColumns (CInteger) VALUES (1234)
BROWSE * FROM AllColumns WHERE COUNT = INSERT

What do you see in CComputeDate column?

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.

Thanks, David, but it's not the DEFAULT that I'm trying to get to work. This is copied from Razzak's post a while back:

Alastair,

MY emphasis was on DEFAULT values.

"The default values that are expressions are NEVER supported in R:BASE."

You should have no problem when defining values as "Compute" with correct
"Expression" as demonstrated in RBG7 sample ConComp Database.

Database: ConComp
Table: AllColumns
Column: CComputedDate
Type: DATE
Compute : Checked
Expression: (IFNULL(CComputedDate,.#DATE,CComputedDate))

Very Best R:egards,

I'm trying to use this expression:

(IFNULL(Up_Date, .#DATE, Up_Date))

which, to me looks the same except for the column names. The data designer accepts the expression and saves it but nay new row added does NOT get the value inserted.
