<h3>The SELECT Statement</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Use the SELECT statement to retrieve rows. The SELECT statement consists of:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> the <I>SELECT-list</I> which identifies the columns (properties) of interest, </li>
|
|
<li> the <I>FROM clause</I> which specifies the scope (the set of files) for the search, and </li>
|
|
<li> the <I>WHERE clause</I> which is the search criteria.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
If the results must be ordered, you can add an additional <I>ORDER BY</I> clause to return
|
|
the rows in ascending or descending order.
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Example</b>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>SELECT DocAuthor, size, DocTitle <br>
|
|
FROM SCOPE(' "/IISSamples/ISSamples" ') WHERE CONTAINS(' "index server" ') > 0 ORDER BY size
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|
<h4>The FROM Clause</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>The FROM clause of the SELECT statement is used to specify the files on which to perform the
|
|
search; that is, use the FROM clause to define the query scope. You can use the SCOPE() function,
|
|
which is the main component of the FROM clause.
|
|
The SCOPE function can take zero or more comma-separated Scope_Arguments (that is, <I>Traversal_Type</I> and
|
|
<I>Path</I> combinations). You can specify SCOPE with an empty argument list, or (). This is the default
|
|
scope that uses the virtual root ( / ) as its path. Each Scope_Argument must be surrounded by single
|
|
quotes (see Examples below).
|
|
|
|
<p>In addition to using Scope(), you can also refer to any one of a set of predefined views of
|
|
Indexing Service properties that are often queried against. You can reference one of these pre-defined
|
|
views in the FROM clause by specifying the pre-defined View_Name.
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Examples</b>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
SELECT DocAuthor, size FROM SCOPE() WHERE size > 500000
|
|
<p>
|
|
SELECT DocAuthor, size <br>
|
|
FROM SCOPE(' SHALLOW TRAVERSAL OF "D:\Contracts\open" ',' DEEP TRAVERSAL OF "/Reports/Year 97" ')<br>
|
|
WHERE CONTAINS(DocAuthor, ' "John" ') > 0
|
|
<p>
|
|
SELECT * FROM EXTENDED_WEBINFO <br>
|
|
WHERE CONTAINS(DocSubject, ' "index server" NEAR() "internet information server" ') > 0
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|
<h4>The WHERE Clause</h4>
|
|
<p>The WHERE clause of the SELECT statement specifies which rows in the virtual table defined by
|
|
the FROM clause make up the resulting rowset. The WHERE clause consists of one or more search conditions (that is,
|
|
one or more predicates combined with AND, OR and NOT) that filter out rows for which the search
|
|
condition is false.
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Examples</b>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
SELECT FileName, size FROM SCOPE() WHERE DocTitle = 'Financial Data' OR DocAuthor = 'John Smith'
|
|
<p>
|
|
SELECT FileName, DocAuthor FROM FILEINFO WHERE size < 10000 OR DocWordCount <= 800
|
|
<p>
|
|
SELECT DocTitle, FileName, write FROM SCOPE() <br>
|
|
WHERE CONTAINS (' "Index" NEAR() "Server" NEAR() "Microsoft"') > 0 AND size < 5000
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|
<h3>The ORDER BY Clause</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The optional ORDER BY clause can be appended to the SELECT statement to sort the rows returned in the
|
|
rowset according to a specified set of criteria. Results are sorted by default in ascending order.
|
|
To sort in descending order, specify DESC after the column name.
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Example</b>
|
|
|
|
<code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
SELECT FileName, DocTitle, size, rank FROM SCOPE(' "/MyDocs/Specs97", "/YourDocs/Specs97" ')<br>
|
|
WHERE FREETEXT (' "How do I index my HTML pages" ') > 0 ORDER BY rank, size DESC
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|

|
|
<I>CONTAINS</I> and <I>FREETEXT</I> predicates as illustrated in the examples on this page, please refer
