The SQL Query Builder provides an easy-to-use interface to create SQL statements. You
can specify which tables will be included in the statement and, from those tables, select the
columns to be returned or used for filtering.
Start by following the instructions in the editor to add a table:
1. Right-click in the middle pane and select Add table to select a table from the database.
Select theGOSALES.BRANCH table, which adds this table automatically to your script.
2. Then select the table columns you want to include in your SQLSELECT statement. You
can select the columns directly from the pane that opens when you selected the table.
Select theCITY column, as shown in Figure 5.38.
3. In the Conditions tab, add the value filter by selecting the columnPROV_STATE, the
operator =, and typing in the value‘CA’, as shown in Figure 5.38. When you move
your mouse from this input table, thisWHERE clause is added to the script.
