Calculated Column

 

Some stencils use strings computed from other related tables ( i.e. foreign key tables). For example, in the Chinook database, the Customer table is a foreign key table to the invoice table:

 

CS_clip0130

 

So, we may want to display Customer.FirstName +", " + Customer.LastName as a calculated field in the Invoice table to enhance how some stencils are able to generate code.

 

 

CS_clip0131
