SQL
I'm using a database which has a number of queries which have been created using SQL statements rather than using Design view. Please explain how I can understand what it is doing, without learning SQL.
RE: SQL
Hi Vishal
Thank you for your question
I am assuming that the database you are using is in fact an Access database. If this is the case then you should be able to open the query in design view in the normal way. You will then see the tables and fields that the query is selecting, as well as the relationships between the tables.
Simply go to query view, select the query in question and then click on the design view button on the left hand side of the main tool bar

RE: SQL
Thank you for your response.
Yes, it is an access database.
I have tried to view the query in design view and it doesn't work, hence my question. This query seems to be written using SQL rather than using the design view.

Hi Vishal
Thanks for your question
Again, apologies for the delay. I have had a number of ongoing health issues recently combined with on site training,and have been away from work.
Can I suggest you copy and paste the SQL into an email and send it to me. I will then have a look at it, annotate it and then send you back an explanation.
My email is stephen@stl-training.co.uk
