Basic Table Field (Link Query)

Is this what it looks like?
Is there now some way to bind a Database to a Table Field?
Any idea or references on how to use this Link Query option?

Hi.

I have never seen that pane in the property inspector. But I am still in v 6.7. Where are you?

Hmm. This isn't a legacy view of the old deprecated database query builder is it? You'd need to enable it in the "Compatibility" section of the Preferences. But for the love of all that you hold dear, don't.

Drag a Basic Table Field onto a Stack.
From the Inspector choose Database.

Have you got the "enable database query builder" checked in the preferences?
That is long dead, and it never worked before it was deprecated.

The Database Query Builder has to be enabled in the Preferences. I strongly URGE you to not use it. It's very old, very buggy, very deprecated and just not maintained. It's bad. BAD! BAD! BAD!

It only exists for backward compatibility with some very old scripts. Uncheck that box in the preferences and pretend you never saw it.
