>Has anyone developed a Query by Exzmple or a general query form for use with Mere Mortals? The challenge to QBE seems to be that the controls on a form are buried inside MM objects. Also, MM is geared toward Parameterized Views which have a set number of parameters already specified. I want a more flexible approach to a table with a numerous significant fields and a huge number of records.

Hi Alan,

I have never had a need for something like this in my apps, but if I did I would probably look into a third party tool. One that comes to mind is Stonefield Query. It allows for the setup of a database configuration (done by the developer) which insulates the user from all the database issues (joins, etc.). The user then can pick and choose what they want (fields) for the values they want (parameters) and send output to the printer, file, etc.
