newQueryString

Returns a new query string to the passed query. The tables in the passed query must match getTables(). Adds column/value pairs to the corresponding buffer’s WHERE clause. Each buffer’s expression is always embedded in parentheses.

Location: query.p

Parameters:

INPUT pcColumns AS CHARACTER

Comma-separated column names of a table in the query in the form of TBL.FLDNM or DB.TBL.FLDNM. RowObject.FLDNM should be used for SDOs. If the fieldname is not qualified, it checks the tables in the TABLES property and assumes the first with a match.

INPUT pcValues AS CHARACTER

Corresponding values (CHR(1)-separated).

INPUT pcOperators AS CHARACTER

Operator for all columns. Blank defaults to EQ. Use a slash to define an alternative string operator. Comma-separated for each column/value.

INPUT pcQueryString AS CHARACTER

A qualified query string matching the queries tables.

INPUT pcAndOr AS CHARACTER

AND or OR decides how the new expression is appended to the passed query (for each buffer).

Returns: CHARACTER

Notes: None
