[pilot-db-list] Calculations with linked fields...

[Michael O. <mob...@co...>]

I'm making a calorie counter that uses two databases, one for food items and the other with what items I had on that day.
The problem arises when I try to use linked fields in calculations.

first database has a [string] and an [integer]  description and calories

the sceond one has a [date] folowed by a [link] to the string description in the first database and a [linked] to the integer calories

I'd like to add a calculated field that accumulates calories for any given day, but I think the scripts don't consider links to integers to actually be integers.

The manual is really vauge on linked stuff, and I've reached my wits end, Any help would be appreciated.


    Thanks in advance..
