dBworx Help File - Action Menu


ACTION MENU (Registered Version): 

The "Action" menu (registered version only) allows you to perform 
mathematical operations on a certain field for all records in the file.
Actions available are:

    1) Clear the contents of a specified field (for all records)
    2) Add the contents of Field #2 to Field #1
    3) Subtract the contents of Field #2 from Field #1
    4) Multiply Field #1 by a numeric factor
    5) Divide Field #1 by a numeric factor

If you select one of these options, dBworx will ask for the name of 
Field #1 and either the name of Field #2 (options 1 and 2) or a
numeric factor (options 3 and 4).  If the field name(s) entered are valid
(i.e., exist in the current database file), dBworx will ask if you're ready
to update.  Answer "Yes" and the contents of Field #1 will be
replaced by the calculated value for all records in the current file.
