- I recently posted a JOB/CANDIDATE application problem, where the goal
- of the query is to match a job with candidates, where the fields in
- either could be matching, or blank.
-
- This would be easy if it were not for the restriction that paradox
- does not allow example elements to be combined in an OR expression,
- for example: ~123 or BLANK, which then could be placed in all the
- fields of both ask tables.
-
- Anyone have any ideas on how to either Query, or PAL program around
- this? Help.
