Using the Query window

The Query window has two main views: Design view and Datasheet view. The difference between them is self-explanatory: The Design view is where you create the query, and the Datasheet view displays the records returned by the query.

With tblProducts displayed in the top half of the Query Design window.

The Query Design window consists of two sections:

  • The table/query entry pane (top)
  • The Query by Example (QBE) design grid (bottom)

The upper pane is where tables or queries and their fields are displayed. Tables and queries are displayed as small windows inside the top pane (the proper name of this window is Field List). The Field List window can be resized by clicking on the edges and dragging it to a different size.

The Query by Example (QBE) grid holds the field names involved in the query and any criteria used to select records. Each column in the QBE grid contains information about a single field from a table or query contained within the upper pane.
