Hi Gabe_V ,
sorry that I still don't get your requirement / use case.
Usually, even complex things are possible in PQ, but I don't understand what you want to achieve here.
So without a proper file with sample data, I am afraid that I cannot help you any further here.

    Hi ImkeF,

     

    I'm sorry its not a great use case, but could I instead ask a general question: In general terms, is it possible to evaluate a specific field in a query by an external function, or am I just completely barking up the wrong tree? I just thought it would be really great if I had a function that I could re-use over and over again and be accessed from a wide variety of other queries. I mean, if I wanted to compare a field in query A to a field in query B and return a result to query C, wouldn't I need an external function to do that?

     

    Anyway, thank you for trying. I really do appreciate the effort. 🙂

     

    Cheers,

    Gabe
