This is my model code, its basically what you did: I am getting this error
*<type 'exceptions.SyntaxError'> invalid table "fuelLogging" attributes: 
set(['before_update'])*

*MODEL CODE*
def fuelLogging_before_update(*args, **kwargs):
    db.fuelLogging.compute = lambda r: (db.fuelLogging.ODO_Reading * -1) + r
.ODO_Reading
    
db.define_table('fuelLogging',
                Field('Quantity', 'integer', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
                Field('Rate', 'integer', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
                Field('Total', compute=lambda r:r['Quantity']*r['Rate']),
                Field('ODO_Reading', 'integer', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
                Field('Fuel_Usage', compute=lambda r: r['Delta']/r[
'Quantity']),
                Field('Delta', default=0),
                before_update=fuelLogging_before_update)


I guess i am doing something wrong somewhere!
