I'm having trouble getting a rate to multiply on my quantity in UD. Here's my select statement:Select quantity from items * 35
I've also tried
Select sum(quantity) from items * 35
to compute the total amounts, but it doesn't work.
It seems pretty simple, but it won't compute. Any suggestions? I'm using a Mac/DreamweaverUltraDev and a Mysql db on a Solaris server.
Thanks,
Tedra Harring

Thanks so much for your helpful advice. I have the book The Complete Reference, Dreamweaver UltraDev 4, and they don't show nesting any calculations like you did. It works beautifully, of course, and you've been a big help. Can you also recommend a better book for my use?
Thanks again,
