Structuring a query in the Query Editor
To define a query
Define a query or edit existing queries in the Query Editor. Once you’ve defined the query, you can test it before
actually running it on a site or group of files.
1
Choose Edit > Queries.
Note:
To create an application-wide query, don’t open a site before opening the Query Editor.
2
Choose a portion of the site on which to run the query from the Work On menu, and then click the New Query
button.
3
If desired, type a description of the query in the Description field in the Query Editor.
4
Choose an option from the Find What menu (see “Query options” on page 239), and then set options in the
Settings pane.
5
To add more criteria to the query, click the arrow to the right of the Find What menu and choose an Add, Or, or
Not item:
And
Specifies that all criteria must be satisfied. For example, if you select this option and define a query to show files
that were created over two weeks ago and contain external links, the query shows only those files created over two
weeks ago that contain external links.
Or
Specifies that any, but not all, of the criteria must be satisfied. For example, if you select this option and define a
query to show files that were created over two weeks ago or contain external links, the query shows the files created
over two weeks ago with or without external links, and the files that contain external links regardless of when they
were created.
Not
Specifies that the first set of criteria must be satisfied but the second set of criteria must not be satisfied. For
example, if you select this option and define a query to show files that were created over two weeks ago and do not
contain external links, the query shows only those files created over two weeks ago that do not contain external links.
6
Continue to define query criteria using the Find What menus and Add, Or, or Not items. You can drag and drop
query criteria above, beneath, or next to other query criteria (as you drag, black bars appear next to the existing
criteria, indicating the location of the new criteria).
7
Delete criteria by choosing Delete from the menu to the right of the Find What menu.
8
To test the query, click Test Query.
9
Close the Query Editor to save the query. Enter a name for the query in the Save Query File dialog box (the .aglq
extension is provided automatically), and then click Save.
Queries you create and save are listed in the Filename section of the Queries window, and are stored in the Queries
folder in the Extras tab of the site window.
