Database details
« on: December 11, 2008, 07:13:30 PM »
I thought I might try my hand at making a customized report generation utility, so I looked into the MyLog.db3 file and am confused.  It doesn't seem to have all the data for all the flights I've collected.  Something simple like

   SELECT * from v_Flights where ModeS='ABC123'; (fake code)

returns no rows unless that code has been seen with a non-null Callsign block?

The Reporter seems to get this right; where's the data being stored?  :)

Tarbat is the one to ask here regarding SQL searches.

Only aircraft with a Flight ID currently get added to the Flights table.  That's under review by Airnav as a possible future enhancement.  Flight ID is the primary key, so a Flight ID will have to be "made up" for flights that don't have a Flight ID.

Aircraft without Flight IDs do get added to the Aircraft table in MyLog.

So where does Reporter get the others from?
