Assigning number into label

Hi,
I have only just started using Appery. I have a number column in a collection in my Appery database. I want to assign this number to a label but the label only accepts text.
How or where do I even add custom javascript to do this. Also do I need to parse the number in the text label field?

No you don't need to do this.

The documentation simply shows how to map fields from the database to the local variables.

I didn't find any help on how to assign a NUMBER column to a TEXT label.

Cheers

Please do next steps:

  1. Add "mobilegrid" component. Set "Rows"=1 "Cols"=1.

  2. Put label into "mobilegrid" component.

  3. Map service response field to label component.

    Let me know if it works for you.

Hi
Thanks for your help.
Figured out that I was mapping the fields correctly but i updated the database. so had to deleted and re-create the services.
