Users Manual

21-4

The ADVANCED QUERY screen (shown in Figure 21.2) has several different sections,

each of which is described below.

To build an advanced query you can define criteria in

each of the sections or any combination of the sections. The selection options for each

area of the screen are comprised of every field in the record type you are currently

working in. This includes any user defined variables added to the record type.

In addition, all fields will be listed under their current label names. This is important to

note if you have modified field label names (see Chapter 8). For example, if you changed

the label of the Instrument ID field to “Asset #”, “Asset #” will appear in each section’s

field name list. “Instrument ID” will not be shown.

21.1.2.1 Display Fields Section

This section lets you determine which fields you want to be displayed in the advanced

query list. To select a field that you want displayed, highlight it in the Available Fields

box and click the Add

button. This will move it to the Other Fields To Display box. To

move it back, highlight it again and click the Remove

button. You may also change the

order in which they are to appear. To do this, highlight one of the fields in the “Other

Fields to Displayed” and use the Move arrows to define the order.

The fields displayed should include at least those that will be used in the selection criteria

for the query, but keep in mind that you may choose as many fields as you like to appear

in the list. For example, if you were building a query to list all instruments calibrated

yearly, then you would probably want to at least display the Calibration Frequency field.

However, to make the list more detailed, you could also have each instrument’s Model

Number and Serial Number displayed. Please note that the ID Number and Description

fields will always be displayed in advanced query lists. There is no option to remove

these.
