Select/Search creates a search form that helps the user contructing basic SELECT... FROM <i>current_table</i> (WHERE...) queries. The link can be found from the <a href="<%script_url%>?<%do_param%>=help&help_topic=toolbar">tool bar</a> or the <a href="<%script_url%>?<%do_param%>=help&help_topic=table_list">table list</a>. For more complex queries, please use <a href="<%script_url%>?<%do_param%>=help&help_topic=sql_monitor">SQL Monitor</a> instead.

|
|
<B>SELECT checkboxes</B>
|
|
<BR>For tables with many fields, sometimes you may not wish irrelevant fields to
|
|
be shown. The check the fields that you would like to be displayed and the
|
|
fields unchecked will not be shown. The first field is checked automatically.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<P>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<B>WHERE text field</B>
|
|
<BR>It is basically the WHERE. . . clause of a MySQL query. You do not need to
|
|
have to specify the key word <i>where</i> again in the text field. Please note
|
|
that ORDER BY. . . will be appended to the end of the query automatically.
|
|
Therefore, if you would like to sort the result to sort by a particular
|
|
column, you can do it by clicking on the column name when the result is displayed.
|
|
</li>
|

<P>
|

<li>
|
|
<B>Query by example</B>
|
|
<BR>All records with fields matching the value entered in the text fields will be
|
|
retrieved. If wildcards are not used, then MySQL looks for exact matches.
|
|
<P>
|
|
Wildcard usage:
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
Key_word% - Anything that begins with <I>Key_word</I>.<BR>
|
|
%Key_word - Anything that ends with <I>Key_word</I>.<BR>
|
|
%Key_word% - Anything that contains <I>Key_word</I>.
