Matching records calc field
Hi!
I've got 2 tables.
Table 1 contains all enrollments for each student. This is the master of the 2 tables.
Table 2 contains a subset of those same enrollments for each student.
GOAL: To have a calc field in Table 1 that shows TRUE when a matching record exists in Table 2.
I have established a predicate relationship between the 2 that is based upon the concepts of a self-join duplicate record identifier. IOW, I have about 6 fields that I match between the 2 records to ensure they are indeed identical. I did it this way because, though each enrollment record is uniquely identified, those IDs are not identical between the 2 tables.
I tried the following formula, but no joy:
not IsEmpty ( Table 2::ID )
Any suggestions?
Steve
