Specifying a Column Expression

To specify a column expression:
  1. On the Column Editor tab, select table-name.column-name from the Expression column. If you added a new column manually, then you need to specify the table and column name.
  2. Click Expression to open the expression builder. The table and column name are added automatically as the default expression.
  3. Use the Fields tab to select columns from the source tables that you have added to the query.
    Tip
    You can also begin entering the table and column name in the expression window to use the autocomplete feature.
  4. Use the Functions tab to select the functions to apply to the source column.
  5. Enter arithmetic operators and expressions such as CASE statements directly in the SQL expression area.
  6. Click Apply to save the column expression.
