How do you mulitply in a field?
(ie a Make Table query
in Access), that block of data is NOT part of the data storage model
for your application.
I don't get your 'Make Table query' example. IMO no application should
be creating permanent tables on the fly.
I think that one of the main uses of a make table query is to reassemble
data that were previously stored in a spreadsheet or some such. In that
case the data wrangling is indeed not part of the data storage model, but
rather a form of data entry.
