output data table query from database is all categorical (numerical columns changed to categorical)

[#1]

Hi,

I 'm using the query builder to get data from database. The the included columns from table are a mixed of categorical and numerical type. After I clicked Run Query, a table appears and contains all the columns I needed. However , all the columns appear in categorical type. How I can make sure not losing the data type when query data using jmp?

Yes, under the included columns window I make sure the data type is continuous. However, the table generated after I clicked Run Query change all those continuous to categorical. Is this a bug?

[#4]

I'm not an expert on query builder, but the simple example worked for me in JMP 16.

It might make a difference if the database columns are character rather than numeric.

What version of JMP?

Add a picture might help too.

I m using jmp pro 14

what I saying is:
1) when doing query, the continuous-type columns is there (see left of image last row)
2) after clicked Run Query, the table generate shows the previous continuous-type column become categorical (see right side of image)
3) Thus, I wonder if there is bug for jmp pro 14 query builder ? 
4) or, I missed some setting?

14.3 works as I expect, the continuous default is not changed. I'm out of suggestions, except to look at the source script in the opened table; you might be able to change to "Continuous" (or delete) the highlighted bits and get what you need.

New SQL Query(
Connection(
"ODBC:DSN=CSV;DBQ=C:\SPACE\SAS\JMP\15\SAMPLES\IMPORT DATA;DefaultDir=C:\SPACE\SAS\JMP\15\SAMPLES\IMPORT DATA;DriverId=27;FIL=text;MaxBufferSize=2048;PageTimeout=5;"
),
QueryName( "Big Class.csv" ),
Select(
Column( "name", "t1" ),
Column( "age", "t1" ),
Column( "sex", "t1" ),
Column( "height", "t1", Analysis Type( "Ordinal" ) ),
Column( "weight", "t1", Analysis Type( "Nominal" ) )
),
From( Table( "Big Class.csv", Alias( "t1" ) ) )
) << Run

Beyond that, I'd suggest tech support. (Might be good anyway; it does sound like a bug.)

Hi ,

I think there is definitely a bug.
I tried 
Column( "height", "t1", Analysis Type( "Ordinal" ) ),     #output table is Ordinal
However, when I do 
Column( "height", "t1", Analysis Type( "Continuous" ) ),    # output table is nominal

So,   that continuous data type property cannot be queried out. I need to add step on downstream where I will need to change the data type back to continuous after table queried.
