Sorry for the repeat question, but I'm trying to figure out how to create a calculated field that only populates when the record is originally created (i.e. calculate on create, but do not recalculate on update). Same question as here:
http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/1b29979f2c63f225/085221abcb401ff0?lnk=gst&q=calculated+field#085221abcb401ff0 Is there a way to do this "out of the box"? Or is it just better to write a function that checks for an existing value before running and returning the calculation. Thanks in advance! P.S. *Amazing* framework! Just got started and I'm loving every new thing I learn!
