[AccessD] Calculated Fields

I had not realized that feature was even there. I'm pretty sure I will ignore it and never create such a field, I prefer to do calculations in queries and code where they normally happen and where I expect to look when I have problems to fix. I would hate to spend hours scratching my head only to find that this strange hybrid "data type" was the cause of a problem.

There is also no equivalent in Oracle. I wonder if SQL Server has it.

Are any of you using the new Calculated Field data type -- I guess it isn't strictly a data type, but I think that's how Access is defining it.
