Overview of Using the Query Library
If you plan to run a query more than once, you can save it. Once you have
saved a query, you can run it anytime.
■ Saving a Query (page 176)— Save the current query to the query library or
to an external file.
■
Running a Saved Query (page 178)— Run a query saved in the query library.
Each drawing has a query library where you can organize your saved queries
into categories.
■ Adding an External Query to Your Library (page 180)
■ Using Query Library Categories (page 181)
■ Editing a Saved Query (page 183)
NOTE This functionality applies to drawing objects only. To filter geospatial feature
data whn you add it to your map, see
Filtering Features When You Add Them to
a Map
(page 309).
