Formula for converting number to text in Query Editor

‎07-02-2023 11:51 PM

Hey guys,

 

my IT department just migrated the MYSQL Database to MariaDB. Now I can't just change a number column to text because it creates an error. 

 

Can I just create a new column with a formula like: Text([ID])?

I haven't found a formula so far.

 

Thanks for your help!
