How does one apply formatting to a field which is not defined in a table, but rather the result of a sum() operation?
Below, the field 'price' is formatted in the table definition as currency, and displays in forms with appropriate currency symbol and thousands separators. However, after the sum() operation is applied, the resulting computed field no longer has access to that formatting function. --------------- simple example - in controller... def func() type = db.table1.type price = db.table1.price rows = db().select(type, price.sum(), groupby=type) tbl = SQLTABLE(rows) return dict(tbl=tbl) --------------- I'm currently using an SQLTABLE but could alternatively use an SQLFORM.grid instead if that provides a better solution. I can't seem to find a way to attach a lamda function to the computed field in order to provide formatting for that specific field in the form/grid.
