What is a query performed on a connection?

A query performed on a connection is a query performed on data files handled via a specific ODBC driver or a Native Connector.

When the connection is created, you can define:
  • the connection name
  • the name of the data source
  • the username and password
  • the name of the database accessed (if there is more than one).
The report editor allows you to print the data coming from a query performed on a connection. All the parameters of the connection to use can be defined in the report editor or through programming with the WLanguage properties.
ODBCSQLCode is used to:
  • Find out the SQL code of the "query performed on a connection" (data source of report). This query is performed on one or more data files accessible via a specific ODBC driver or a Native Connector. This query is defined during the report creation.
  • Modify the SQL code of the "query performed on a connection" (data source of report).
Remark: This property must be used in the opening code of the report.
Example
// -- Opening code of the report
RPT_Report1.ODBCConnectionName = "MyConnection"
RPT_Report1.ODBCSQLCode = "Select * from Products"
RPT_Report1.ODBCUserName = "MOORE"
RPT_Report1.ODBCPassword = "PSW"
Syntax

Finding out the code of the "Query performed on a connection" Hide the details

<Result> = <Report used>.ODBCSQLCode
<Result>: Character string
Text of the SQL query to be executed on the database accessed via a specific ODBC driver or a Native Connector. This query must be a Select query (SELECT).
<Report used>: Report name
Name of the report to be used.

Modifying the code of the "Query performed on a connection" Hide the details

<Report used>.ODBCSQLCode = <New SQL code>
<Report used>: Report name
Name of the report to be used.
<New SQL code>: Character string
SQL code of the query to be executed. The SQL code must be recognized by the database used. This query must be a Select query (SELECT).
Remarks

Properties used to manage reports based on data files accessed via an ODBC driver or a Native Connector

The following properties are used to manage reports based on data files accessed via an ODBC driver or a Native Connector:
ODBCConnectionNameUsed to identify and change the name of the connection used to handle a database accessed via an ODBC driver or a Native Connector.
ODBCDatabaseNameUsed to identify and change the name of the database used by the query executed on a database accessed via an ODBC driver or a Native Connector.
ODBCPasswordUsed to identify and change the password associated with the user allowed to access a database via an ODBC driver or a Native Connector.
ODBCSQLCodeUsed to identify and change the SQL code of the query executed on a database accessed via an ODBC driver or a Native Connector.
ODBCUserNameUsed to identify and change the name of the user allowed to access a database via an ODBC driver or a Native Connector.
