Space in database column
 
I'm adding a check for previous entries of the same item in my database and I figured the best way would be to check the key words of the items, since these are bound to be unique even when the names are not. I named the key words column "Key Words" (Fits, eh?) and have had no problems working with it like it is (with the space). The problem comes when I try to check for duplicates...

#FIND {@ItemStats.Name} {All|ai} {Name} {1}
#IF (%rec = %null) {#NEW {All|ai} {@ItemStats}} {}

(Taken from an example on this board)

Now, I'm using @ItemStats.Name because I can't get Key Words to work. I've tried {@ItemStats.Key Words} and {"@ItemStats.Key Words"} (Yes, I've changed the other Name area to match). What is the correct way?

Can't remember very well if this will work, but try:
@{ItemStats.Key Words}

If it still doesn't work, then I suggest you think about changing that columns name.
