I'm not a complete noob. I have a most of the program I want running, but I
have just hacked this together. I've hit a brick wall so I though it was
time to actually learn what I'm doing with python.
The brick wall I hit is this:
I have a database with different customers, projects, and tasks, with start
times and end times. I have created a virtual field to get the duration of
those tasks. Works great to here.
The brick wall??
Now I want to take that duration virtual field and create another virtual
field that will calculate the total time for the project.
Any who.
Thanks for the info. I have more reading to do. Gotta learn how to take the
dataset (tuple of dicts) pull duration out on a per projectID bases and sum
them up.
Thanks Again
PS: Why are some ppl so long winded ;^)
