The Query Function
The Query command allows you to search different client
records, demographics and data. The query gives you full
access to your files, documents and data. You can query
or search any document on the basis of chart (or client)
number, last name, first name, birthdate, health number
(or reference number), document category, document title,
document date. Your query or search can be sorted in ascending
or descending order.
Depending on your purposes, the more particular you are
in setting the range of specifications for your search or
query, the narrower the range of search the Query command
will activate. In other words, the more entries you provide,
the more narrow and precise your search and query results
will be.
After specifying the nature of the parameter, you can then
list exact criteria for the query to search for. Simply
click the mouse on the SEARCH button to begin. A message box will inform you if no match
was found. Click the mouse on the RESET button to clear the entry you have made to use different
parameters and criteria.
Depending on the nature of the particular parameter, each
has operations that set a range for the search. This means
the search specifications have flexible parameters that
allow for flexible queries. The range of parameters is set
and determined separately for each of the specifications.
The operations used by the query include Between, Equal
to, Like, Less than and Greater than. The type of parameter
will determine which operations can be used where.
The Query dialog box uses any or all parameters of a client
or document for retrieval. It allows you to enter as little
or as much detail on the document in order to carry out
the search. Develop organized ways of naming documents and
their categories for easier access.
