Are unions possible?

edited December 2002 in End User
Hi,

Is it possible to perform unions within the end-user facility (without
manual SQL modification)?

    Do you think I should request this as a new end-user feature ie does it
    sound like a useful feature to have?

    Unions in DADE are on the to-do list. The problem is that we have to support
    all databases. Unions didn't make the cut already because not every database
    supports it in the same way. We'd have to add more logic (per database
    checks in our SQL generator) and generate different SQL.

    For now you have to edit the SQL text in the query designer specific to your
    database syntax.

    Cheers,
