Brian,
You are one in a million well spotted. I added SUSPEND to the end of the
procedure and hay presto everything kicked into life.
I sent myself and email with the meta for the table but it hasn't arrived
yet. I will send it tomorrow. However from memory all I did was
CREATE TABLE "PLAYER_MONTHS"
(
"PLAYER_CODE" VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
"PLAYER_YEAR" INTEGER,
"PLAYER_MONTH" INTEGER,
"OPENING_SCORE" COMPUTED BY ((SELECT TOTAL_MONTH_SCORE FROM
CALC_MONTH_SCORE(PLAYER_MONTHS.PLAYER_CODE,PLAYER_MONTHS.PLAYER_YEAR,PLAYER_
MONTHS.PLAYER_MONTH))),
....
Brian, note the use of double "((" and "))" these are required when doing a
SELECT.
This would NOT work (note only one opening and closing "(", ")" ):
"OPENING_SCORE" COMPUTED BY (SELECT TOTAL_MONTH_SCORE FROM
CALC_MONTH_SCORE(PLAYER_MONTHS.PLAYER_CODE,PLAYER_MONTHS.PLAYER_YEAR,PLAYER_
MONTHS.PLAYER_MONTH))
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Marcus.
