-"Visual query designer" {bold} "
-
-PgAccess is using an advanced tool for visual designing of queries. \
-For those of you that have used Microsoft Access, it will be very familiar.
-
-When a new query is build, an empty canvas will be presented to you. \
-In the bottom of the screen there is the " {} "result" {italic} " zone.
-
-Add new tables on the canvas by selecting them from the drop-down or by entering \
-their names in the \"Add table\" entry and then pressing Enter.
-
-After adding the source tables on the canvas you can make links between fields from \
-different tables by dragging one field and dropping it on the label of the\
-corresponding field in the linked table. Links can be deleted by selecting them\
-(the link line will change it's colour) and then press \"Delete\" key.
-
-In order to delete a table from the canvas, select it by mouse clicking on the\
-name of the table and then press the \"Delete\" key. The tables can be moved\
-on the canvas by dragging them from their name labels. The entire canvas can\
-be panned by dragging it from an empty area.
-
-In order to select fields that will be included in the result, drag the desired \
-field from the table and drop it in the result zone in the desired column.\
-If there is already another field in that column, it will be shifted to the \
-right together with all the remaining fields to the right and the new field will \
-be inserted in the desired column.
-
-You can also specify a condition for records to be included in the result. Go \
-to the result zone and in the \"Criteria\" row enter the condition for the \
-selected field." {} "
-Example:" {italic} "
- > 150
-we will presume that we entered the above criteria for a numeric field. Or:
- = 'CPU'
-for a character field.
-
-If you don't want a field to be included in the result and you dropped it into \
-the result area just for adding a selection criteria on it, mouse click on \
-the Yes or No label in the \"Return\" row.
-
-In order to sort the results on a field, mouse click on the 'unsorted' label in \
-the \"Sort\" row.
-
-If you want to remove a field from the result zone, click on it's name and \
-then hit the \"Delete\" key.
-
-Pressing the \"Show SQL\" button will display the SQL command that will be \
-build from the current tables and result columns. Clicking on the canvas will \
-make it dissapear and the table layout will be displayed again.
-
-Check the query execution by pressing on the \"Execute SQL\" button. If the \
-query has been executed without error, a query viewer will be displayed and \
-you will be able to see the selected rows. When everything is ok, save the \
-query command to the query builder by pressing the \"Save to query builder\" \
-button.
