Question

QF custom query limitations

Quick Fields Version 8

asked on November 20, 2014 • Show version history

Will the custom query in QF allow me to do a case statement within my select? we are using version 8.0.1. I am looking for a way to determine the day of the week from a date read into the template. I also need to pull other information back from the database and populate the template but, it seems to ignore my case statement and returns all the other data.

Carrie,

What you are doing should work assuming it is returning only a single row and whatever connection driver allows you to use your case statements in the query. You might also try turning your query into a view and having Quickfields just query the view if the former does not work.

I however would recommend fully to upgrade to Quickfields 9 if you could. In 9 you can actually return day of the week without doing any weird workarounds just by using the date formatting.
