You'd think after all my decades doing this, that I would have seen this type of column before... but I am baffled! I was told this is a really old database, probably starting in 2.11 days.
Look at the attached print-screen, and look at the "billamt" computed column. The word "percent" is used in the computation as if it is a function, but I've searched for "percent" in the help screens and it doesn't exist. Notice also that there is a column called "percent" in the table. If the Percent column has a "50" in it, and the (IntPay + ActAmt) = 200, then it takes 50% of 200 and returns 100 as the BillAmt. But I've never seen syntax like that before! How on earth does it even work? Karen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBASE-L" group.
