Facts

The following tells you the facts you need to understand the output of the sample query.

Column headings

Since no report format was defined, CA Dataquery's first choice for column headings of database columns is always the CA Datacom Datadictionary alternate heading. Also, CA Dataquery uses the automatically assigned Expression 01 for the result column heading. All of these headings can be overridden in the report format definition.

Leading zeros

Since leading zeros appear in the numeric columns in the database, they also appear here. They can be eliminated by selecting a different edit pattern on a panel in the report format definition.
