To specify a column
expression:
-
-
Select table-name.column-name
from
the Expression column. If you added a new
column manually, then you must make sure that you specified a table
name and a column name.
-
Click
to open the expression builder. The table name and
column name are added automatically as the default SQL expression.
The expression is limited
to 1024 characters.
-
On the
Fields tab, select columns from the source tables that you have added to the
data query.
-
On the
Functions tab, select the functions to apply to the
source column.
-
Enter arithmetic operators
and expressions such as CASE statements directly in the
SQL expression area.
-
Note: If you click
after you click
Apply, then
your last change to the expression is undone. However, because the
expression window is closed, you might not notice the undo.
