Problem/Question/Abstract: Decrementing a datetime field in Paradox Answer: There is a bug in Local SQL on Paradox: Executing an Update statement on a Paradox table where '1' is being subtracted in a datetime field does not subtract '1', but rather adds '1'. // this will ADD one! UPDATE SAMPLE.DB set DT = DT - 1 // the following workaround will give the correct result: UPDATE SAMPLE.DB set DT = DT + (-1) |
