How to link and order by with different tables in 4GL

By | April 30, 2015

You may come across a situation, where you may want to link or ‘order by‘ with different tables. X3 has the solution for the scenario and it will help us to get the value from linked tables and able to sort by descending and ascending order on each field. Please refer the below screen shot to get better understanding,

Description of Screen shot:

  • STO1 is alias of First table
  • TLO1 is alias of Second table
  • Link the both tables with proper Key/Index with alias name [STO2] Link [STO1] With [TLO1]TLO0=STOFCY;LOCTYP As [STO2]
  • Now use the where clause to filter the First table include the order by clause too
    Filter [STO2] Where ITMREF=’33301′ & STOFCY= ‘P33’ Order By [TLO1]LOCTYP Asc;[STO1]LOC Desc
  • Please note here, we should mention the actual table name with field in the order by clause, so it will not conflict the ambiguous column name.
  • Finally we got the data from both tables after filtered and sorted,
    Infbox num$([F:STO1]STOCOU) # data comes from First table
    Infbox num$([F:TLO1]LOCTYP) # data comes from Second table
