Lesson 6.1 - Submitting a query to a database

You can submit a query to an ODBC datasource using the webDBQuery statement. Then, when you add the name of that query as an attribute to a webPrint statement, everything within the webPrint block will be processed once for each record returned by the query. The new syntax for the webPrint statement is:

<webPrint query = queryname> ... </webPrint>

Description
Submits a SQL query to a database.
Syntax
<webDbQuery NAME=QueryName DATASOURCE=ODBCDataSourceName
    SQL=SQLstatement [MAXROWS=MaximunNumberOfRows] [TIMEOUT=Milliseconds] [DEBUG]>

Agument

Example
<webDbQuery NAME="Customer List" DATASOURCE="Customer DB"
    SQL="Select * From CustomerTable">

<webPrint Query="Customer List">
    #LastName#, #FirstName# #CompanyName# - #Email#
</webPrint>
