OP Single query

version 1.5

OP Single query (connectionID; tableID; fieldID; queryOperator; queryValue; recordsFound) Longint

Parameter	Type		Description
connectionID	Longint		Connection ID with target server
tableID	Longint		Number of the table in the database
fieldID	Longint		Number of the field in the table
queryOperator	String		Query operator
queryValue	Pointer		Pointer to object containing query value
recordsFound	Longint		Number of records in the resulting selection
Function result	Longint		Error code result for the function

OP Single query queries tableID for queryValues in fieldID. The query is performed on all the records in tableID. After the query, recordsFound indicates the number of records in the new current selection.

qureyValue is a pointer to a variable or field that contains the value with which to perform the query. This value can begin with, contain or end with the "@" symbol for wildcard queries. The pointer passed for queryValue can be a pointer to a field or a process or interprocess variable. If necessary, queryValue is converted.

To query on a Boolean field, you must pass "false" for False and "true" for True.

The query operators are as follows:

Operator	Description
"="	Equal
"#"	Not equal
">"	Greater than
">="	Greater than or equal to
"<"	Less than
"<="	Less than or equal to

If OP Single query executes successfully, it returns 0. Otherwise, this function returns one of the following errors:

Error Code	Description
-9969	Invalid field type requested.
-9971	Field number is out of range.
-9972	Table number is out of range.
10128	The 4D Open for 4th Dimension package
	has not been initialized.
10136	The connection does not exist.
10144	The 4D pointer is equal to NIL.
10145	A 4D pointer was expected.
10151	Invalid search operator.
10153	Unable to convert this type of data.
10154	This command cannot be executed right now.

This example searches for records in the [Invoices] table whose grand total is greater than 10,000.

   C_LONGINT(vRecords; $ErrCode)
   C_REAL(vValue)
   C_LONGINT(vTable;vField)

   vValue:=10000
   $errCode:=OP Get one field number (vConnectID;"[Invoices]Total";vTable;vField)
   $ErrCode:=OP Single query (vConnectID;vTable;vField;">";»vValue;vRecords)
   
   If ($ErrCode=0)
      ALERT(String(vRecords)+" record(s) were found.")
   End if 

OP Get one field number, OP Multi query, OP Single order by, ORDER BY.
