Subject Calculated SQLField: Conversion Error from String
Author jwcane2003
Trying to create a sql result that, when painted in html, generates an email link. Would you please show me what is wrong. Using the following query:

select '<a href="mailto:' + r.email + '">' + r.ResLast +'</a>' as ResLast
from Residents r where kRes = 26

================

This returns the correct table data, but generates the following error:

ISC ERROR CODE:335544334

ISC ERROR MESSAGE:
conversion error from string "jwcane@..."

STATEMENT:
frmSQL.crEdit(TIB_Cursor)

================

The email address is correct.

What is wrong with the syntax for adding the email address, and how can I avoid the conversion error?
