Filtering Column Data with a WHERE Clause

Filtering Column Data with a WHERE Clause

To filter source data for an unload job, you can define a WHERE clause for one or more source columns. The Fast Clone Console provides a convenient tool for composing WHERE clauses.
  1. Click the
    Source Columns
    tab.
  2. In the
    Table
    list, select the table for which you want to define a WHERE clause for filtering column data.
    All of the table columns appear in the
    Table Columns
    box.
  3. Right-click a column row for which to add a condtition in a WHERE clause and click the button in the
    Column Condition
    column.
    The
    Condition definition for table.'column_name'
    dialog box appears, as shown in the following image:
  4. In the
    Operator
    list, select one of the following comparison operators: =, <>, <, >, >=, <=, IS NULL, IS NOT NULL, LIKE, or BETWEEN.
    The operators that are available depend on the column datatype.
  5. In the
    Value
    field, enter a value to use with the operator.
    If the operator requires one value, leave the second field blank. For example, with the greater than (>) operator, you could enter a single numeric value of 1.
  6. If you want to add another condition for the same column, select the
    OR
    check box. Then define another condition for the current column.
    If you clear the
    OR
    check box, the Fast Clone Console removes any conditions that follow the first one.
  7. If you want to add a condition for another column, select one of the following options in the
    Operator for next column
    list to determine if the conditions for one or both columns must be true to filter data. Options are:
    • OR
      . The condition for one or more columns in the WHERE clause must be true.
    • AND
      . The conditions for all of columns in the WHERE clause must be true.
    Then define the conditions for the next column.
  8. Click
    OK
    .
  9. On the
    Source Columns
    tab, verify the WHERE clause that you defined for the table columns by clicking
    Show Where
    .
    The Fast Clone Console includes all of the conditions that you defined for the table columns to the WHERE clause.
    To remove the WHERE clauses, click
    Reset Where
    .
