Sub title to this post - Sometimes unintended consequences work out for
the good!
There are a couple of threads dealing with Base over all that I have
been both wanting to comment on and avoiding as I know that at times I
seem to just hit the negative.
Current problem - you can not update a query that does much of anything
beyond select fields from a single table. ( and that is a problem )
But today I tried something using the new property "Form checks input
for required fields" and found my unintended consequence. ( UC )
The following select statement in a query
SELECT "InvoiceDetails".*, "Quantity" * "UnitPrice" AS "LineTotal" FROM
"InvoiceDetails" AS "InvoiceDetails"
In OO.o <= 2.3.1 use that query with a table grid control you can not
update the records, because of that calculated column.
With the new property set to FALSE - you can!
It is about time one of those UC's went the right way.

Please for anyone that wants to explain all that select statements that
still are read only - don;t. Let's just enjoy this for a moment. Thanks.
