Access Methods
dbConnect Links
Link Select

The Link Select dialog box, known as ASE Select in previous releases, is an advanced
implementation of the Query Editor. You begin a Link Select operation by creating
an initial query or selection set of graphical objects (set A), which can be operated
on by an additional query or selection set (set B). The results of the returned operation
become the new running selection set (set A), and you can apply additional queries
or selection sets to further refine your running query.
In order to work with the Link Select dialog box, you must have a drawing open that
has a number of links already created. You can open this dialog box using the following
methods:
The Link Select dialog box contains the Quick Query, Range Query, and Query Builder
tabs from the Query Editor, and the following additional controls.
