Query / Queries - help on using table view formulae

Hi

I wish to use formulae in the table view of my queries. The standard formulae (eg query attribute and so on) are easy to understand. I was also able to use the simple operators such as =COUNT.

However, even something as straightforward as the =IF is tricky. I cannot find a syntax that does not create an ERROR. for example, I tried =IF(g7="mytext";1;0) and it failed... I assume the conditional part is the problem but I cannot see how to make it any simpler.

I have been unable to find any guidance / information regrading formula use... here or in the system help. Please advise where the query formulae are documented.

Thanks, Simon
