Building a query builder

Query builder is your quick reference guide to SQL syntax. It not only lets you use its own SQLs, but also provides you with the option to add your own along with editing the existing ones.

How to do it...

Query builder is available both in SQLA and Teradata Studio Express. Express query builder is more interactive and has drag-and-drop features. Let's first cover SQLA, followed by Studio Express.

Query builder in SQLA

Here is how you can proceed with query builder in SQLA:

  1. Query builder in SQLA is under the Help tab, or you can press F2. Here, you can click on any existing command or browse for the one you need. 
  2. You can also add frequently used queries in query builder. Click on + as shown in the following screenshot and add the queries that you need most, so that you don't have to search for them:

There is an option to change the statement type when you click on the statement box.
