Expert Query Options
For the Query Manager, you can click the horizontal scrollbar until the Query Expression column appears. This column shows the beginning of the internal programming-language query expression for those expert users who want to see the specific logic used in a query. If necessary, you can even edit the raw expression.
The Expert Query Mode is designed for experts to edit query expressions on a programming level. The Query Builder however, is capable of building quite complex queries. Therefore, this feature is recommended for experts only.
Once a query has been edited in Expert mode, it cannot be edited with the standard Query Builder and can only be edited in Expert mode.
To add/edit a query in Expert mode:
-
From the Query Manager, if you want to edit a query in Expert mode, highlight the query you want to edit and click Expert. If you want to add an expert query, it does not matter which query is highlighted.
-
The Select an Option window appears. Click Edit this Query to edit the highlighted query. Click Add a new Query to add a new expert query. The Query Expert Editor window appears.
-
Make the desired changes to the query and click Test to verify it is a logical expression.
-
Click Done to exit.
