Creating new fields as functions of other fields

Hi,


I've looked for this topic throughout this forum, but couldn't fund it elsewhere.


I'm looking for a simple way of creating a new field column, whose values could be generated by text or aritmethical operations over exhisting fields.


For example, I wish to create a new text field to replicate the values in another text field or to create a new field to logarithmize another numerical field.


Could someone be so kind to explain me how to do it (if it is at all possible)?


Thx


Nuno

This is not possible with IJC 5.3.8, but has been added to IJC 5.4 which will be released very soon.


You can find documentation that describes the feature here:
