Maybe I didn't explain myself too well. That was just a simple example of what lcFilter could contain at runtime. The fields and values are not known at design time. lcFilter could equally contain 'Myfield3>value3', depending on query criteria which the user enters. It is important that lcFilter is evaluated when I issue REQUERY('MyView').
