Database Functions

[Dee]

Hi,

Could someone please explain to me in plain English the
difference between regular functions and database
functions, such as max or dbmax, etc.

Thanks!

Database function need a criteria. So DSUM can be made to SUM all of column
J when column A ="Eggs"
Time to read a book if you want more info

Thanks for the response.

In the Help example, it seems that you must always have a
copy of the first few lines of your database where you
define your criteria. Is this always the case?

Thanks.
