Replacing Tags in a Query

This topic describes the procedure to replace the tag in a query.


When you specify the conditional details for a query in the Where text box of Custom Web Service Operations Generator page, the value of the field and the operator are shown as tags. You need to replace these tags.

  1. Select the opr tag. Double-click the operator of your choice from the Expressions section. You can also manually type the operator replacing the opr tag.
  2. Right-click the value tag in the Where text box of Custom Web Service Operations Generator page. You can also manually type the value replacing the value tag. The related fields are shown on the context menu.
  3. Select an option from the context menu. The Set Field Type option on the context menu will be of use when the query is an associated query, or an inner query, which refers to a parent table. The value tag is replaced with the field selected.
    The tags are replaced with related field name/value.
    Note: A parameter value can be recognized only if it has a colon ((smile) before the field name. This should be provided when the developer types in the value of the parameter manually.
