Examples: Generic_SQL_Export Function
Example 1
Generic_SQL_Export ("SELECT DISTINCTROW ALIAS.* FROM ALIAS”,“AP FEEDS”, “ALIAS.DBF”,””, “dBase III”, “RENAME”)
Example 1 exports to the file “ALIAS.DBF” in the file group identified by “AP Feeds” using “dBASE III” format. If “ALIAS.DBF” already exists, the old “ALIAS.DBF” will be renamed to “ALIAS.000”. If “ALIAS.000” already exists, the old “ALIAS.DBF” will be renamed to “ALIAS.001”, etc.
Example 2
Generic_SQL_Export ("SELECT DISTINCTROW ALIAS.* FROM ALIAS”,“AP Feeds”, “ALIAS.DBF”,””, “dBase III”, “RENAME DBK”)
Example 2 exports to the file “ALIAS.DBF” using “dBASE III” format. If “ALIAS.DBF” already exists, the old “ALIAS.DBF” will be renamed to “ALIAS.DBK”. If “ALIAS.DBK” already exists, it will be overwritten.
Example 3
Generic_SQL_Export ("SELECT DISTINCTROW ALIAS.* FROM ALIAS”, “AP Feeds”, “TRAXMAIN.MDB”,”Alias”, “Microsoft Access”, “RenameTable Alias Save”)
Example 3 creates a table “Alias” in file “TRAXMAIN.MDB”. If “TRAXMAIN.MDB” does not exist, it will be created. If table ”Alias” already exists, it will be renamed to “Alias Save”. If table “Alias Save” already exists, it will be overwritten.
Example 4
Generic_SQL_Export ("SELECT DISTINCTROW ALIAS.* FROM ALIAS”, “AP Feeds”, “BACKUP.MDB”,”Alias”, “Microsoft Access”,“Rename MBK”)
Example 4 creates an Access database “BACKUP.MDB” and create a table “Alias” in it. If “BACKUP.MDB” already exists, it will be renamed to “BACKUP.MBK”. If “BACKUP.MBK” already exists, it will be overwritten.
Example 5
Generic_SQL_Export ("SELECT DISTINCTROW ALIAS.* FROM ALIAS”, “AP Feeds”, “TRAXMAIN.MDB”,”Alias”, “Microsoft Access”, “FailTable”)
Example 5 creates a table “Alias” in file “TRAXMAIN.MDB”. If “TRAXMAIN.MDB” does not exist, it will be created. If table ”Alias” already exists, Generic_SQL_Export fails and returns Null.
Example 6
Generic_SQL_Export ("SELECT DISTINCTROW ALIAS.* FROM ALIAS”, “AP Feeds”, “ALIAS.XLS”,””, “Excel”, “Rename”)
Example 6 creates an Excel 5.0 spreadsheet “ALIAS.XLS”. If “ALIAS.XLS” already exists, it will be renamed to “ALIAS.000”. If “ALIAS.000” already exists, it will be renamed to “ALIAS.001”, etc.
