Hi there,
I can see there's been several posts in the past about Table Builder, and how it isn't possible to Save a template as .xml using Jet Express. We have a developer license for Essentials so I can get round this, but I don't want to create functionality in Essentials that won't work when I run the Table in Express.
Is there a list of limitations of Table Builder in Jet Express? Or is Open/Save the only limitation, i.e. otherwise I can create all other tables/filters as I would in Essentials?
Thank you

Jet Reports Historic Posts Great question, Steve!
Along with being able to save a template of your Table Builder design, Jet Essentials' Table Builder does include a couple of other features:
- Jet Essentials has the ability to Include custom formulas with the "Add Formula" feature
- When reporting from multiple tables in your data source, Jet Essentials has the ability to only include records from the primary table when matching records form the secondary table are found.

Jet Reports Historic Posts Hi HP,
Thanks for your reply, that has cleared things up a lot for me. Where you mention including records from the primary table when matching records from the secondary table, is that similar to the NL(Link) feature for reports outside of Table Builder?
Anyway, I now know the limitations of Jet Express so I can bear that in mind for those reports.
Thanks again. -

Yes, NL(Table) in Jet Express supports LINK=.
The NL(Table) in Jet Essentials additionally supports ExclusiveLink=
