Using supplemental fields | 91
8. Select an option, if applicable, for summarizing a repeating field.
9. Click OK.
10. Continue to define fields, or click OK.
Note If your FileMaker Pro file accesses data from external ODBC data sources,
you can add supplemental fields to specify summary fields for external data.
For more information about defining fields, see Help.
Using supplemental fields
If your FileMaker Pro file accesses data from external ODBC data sources, you
can use supplemental fields to display unstored calculation and summary
results using ODBC data. Because you can’t use FileMaker
Pro to change the
schema of an external ODBC database, supplemental fields are the only fields
you can add to external tables.
For information about how to access and work with SQL data interactively, see
“Working with external data sources” on page 170. For information about
using supplemental fields, see Help.
