Query Tab (Embedded Query List)

Use the Query tab to alter the SQL code for the embedded List. You can add or remove code in the same way as you would use a text editing program such as Notepad.

A common use of the Query tab is to paste an SQL query that has been copied from a List (you can copy the SQL code for a List by displaying the List, right-clicking on the List, selecting the Edit Query option, highlighting the SQL code, then right-clicking and selecting the Copy option). To paste the code onto the Query tab, you need to copy the SQL code as described, then right-click on the Query tab and select the Paste option from the context sensitive menu.

If you right-click in the text entry area on the Query tab, a context sensitive menu is displayed containing the Generate Animation option. If you select this option, the SQL string that you have entered on the Query tab is copied and converted into the correct syntax for an animation of the Sql animation property. You can then amend the SQL animation via the Animations window as required (see Embedded Query List Animations).
