Subtracting from all database values
 
I'm using 3.22. This used to work fine but after updating a few new beta releases at once it has a problem.

I need to subtract 1 from all values in a database.

Code:
#LOOPDB @Database {Database.%key=%val-1}


This still seems to work unless the database key contains more than one word.

So in a database where

blah1 = 10
test1 test2 = 10

the above code changes it to

blah1 = 9
test1 test2 = 10
test1 = 9

So its only taking the first word from the key.
I am looking for a way to fix this, any suggestions?
Thanks.

So I found an alternative that seems to work fine.

Code:
#LOOPDB @Database {#ADDKEY Database %key (%val-1)}


That seems to do the trick. Not sure why I didn't just do that before.

Please post all BETA issues in the BETA forum. The issue with multi-word keys is a known bug already posted in the beta forum.
