Definition

Use

In this field, you specify the relationship between the query field and the field values of the selection criterion. The following relational operators are available:

  • Equal ('=')
    The system retrieves result data where the field has the value specified in the selection criterion. Certain search service providers also support the use of a wildcard character in the field value. In this case, the system retrieves result data where the field has a value matching the given field value pattern.
  • Not Equal ('<>')
    The system retrieves result data where the field does not have the value specified in the selection criterion.
  • Lower Than ('<')
    The system retrieves result data where the field has a value lower than the value specified in the selection criterion.
  • Lower Equal ('<=')
    The system retrieves result data where the field has a value lower or equal to the value specified in the selection criterion.
  • Greater Than ('>')

    The system retrieves result data where the field has a value greater than the value specified in the selection criterion.

  • Greater Equal ('>=')
    The system retrieves result data where the field has a value greater or equal to the value specified in the selection criterion.
  • Between
    The system retrieves result data where the field has a value that lies in the range between the lower and the upper value specified in the selection criterion.

All relational operators except Equal ('=') and Not Equal ('<>') are based on the order of field values. The concrete order is determined by the data type of the field, that is, whether it is a numerical, a textual or a date-based type.
