QBF

[Guest]

I have read and have just started to use QBF on my ACCESS app. I would like
to know what the Pro and Con are for QBF from this user group.

TIA

Do you mean QBE (Query By Example), i.e. the Query grid in Query Design
View?

Extremely good. It helped me a lot when I learnt JET SQL.

There are some limits imposed by the GUI interface and the QBE cannot handle
really complex or specific Queries (e.g. Union, Pass-Through queries).

Personally, I don't use Query-By-Form which is just another form Form
Filter.

If my users need some sort of filtering, I build a Form for the users to
specify the filtering condition. However, I guess QBF can be useful and you
don't have to do a lot of coding.
