SQL Property

Sets or returns the query string used to retrieve the Recordset.

You can set the SQL property at design time in the RDSIE3.DataControl object's OBJECT tags, or at run time in scripting code (for instance, VBScript).

Syntax

	Syntax

Design time	<PARAM NAME="SQL" VALUE="QueryString">
Run time	RDSIE3.DataControl.SQL = "QueryString"

Part	Description

QueryString	A String containing a valid SQL-92 data request.
RDSIE3.DataControl	An object variable that represents an RDSIE3.DataControl object.

Applies To

RDSIE3.DataControl

Remarks

In general, this is an SQL statement (using SQL-92 syntax), such as "Select * from NewTitles". If the data source is Microsoft SQL Server, you can add a for browse clause to the end of the query to enable keyset editing. To ensure that records are matched and updated accurately, an updatable query must contain a field other than a Long Binary field or a computed field.

The SQL property is optional if a custom server-side business object retrieves the data for the client.
