21.1 Advanced Queries
In each of the main screens in DPCTrack2, (except the Company screen) you have the
option of listing all of the records that have been entered into the system for the company.
This option is available from either the File menu or the sub-category toolbar in each of
those screens (see Chapter 5).
When pulling up a list however, DPCTrack2 lets you go further by giving you the ability
to perform more detailed inquiries and saving them for later use. These are referred to as,
"Advanced Queries". Using advanced queries allows you to generate more refined record
lists based upon specific sets of criteria determined by you.
21.1.1 Running Previously Saved Advanced Queries
Every main screen has an Advanced Query Name field in its header. This drop-down list
will always contain the names of all queries previously saved for the current record type.
To run a previously saved query, select it from the drop-down list and click the Execute
Query button next to the field.
21.1.2 Creating New Advanced Queries and Modifying Existing Queries
To create a new query or modify an existing one you must actually access the
ADVANCED QUERY screen. This may be done in one of two ways. First, you must
have one of the record screens in the program open, then either click the Open Advanced
Query button in the record screen's header (Figure 21.1) or click the List Records button
on the screen's sub-category toolbar. Once in the full list of records, click the button
labeled Advanced at the top of the list grid screen. (Please note that although advanced
queries can be created and accessed in many areas of the program, for the sake of clarity
and consistency, the MASTER INSTRUMENT screen will be used as the basis for all
examples and instructions included in this section.)
