QBE queries

Query By Example (QBE) allows uniform access to data in Paradox, FoxPro, Access, or dBASE tables and tables in server-based databases. BDE supports the full QBE language as defined by Paradox DOS and Paradox for Windows. When QBE is executed with a SQL data source, the QBE query is translated to SQL and sent to the server; the resulting cursor is not updateable.
