Problem:
You are attempting to return two or more columns of data from an external data source, with a formula similar
to the following.

@DbCommand("ODBC";"Access";"";"";"Select Column1, Column2 from Table1")

Although no error is returned, you get only the first column of data.

Solution:
An individual @DbColumn formula can return only one column of data. By concatenating multiple
@DbColumn formulas, however, you can return multiple columns of data. You can use, for example, a syntax
such as the following:

C1:=@DbCommand("ODBC";"Access";"";"";"Select Column1 from Table1");
C2:=@DbCommand("ODBC";"Access";"";"";"Select Column2 from Table1");
C1+C2
