wanted each data page to contain several records in the Create data pages as
follows box.
l XMLîfor PrintShop Mail:îThis emulation is specifically for use with merging your
data with a PrintShop Mail document, using the PrintShop Mail task (see PrintShop
Mail). No options are offered, as this format is static and should not be modified.
l Alternate syntax: Select to prevent automatically enclosing the names of any database
tables and fields that appear in the SQL query in square brackets when it exits the
Advanced SQL Statement dialog box. The alternate syntax may be required for some
database types.
l Edit SQL: Click to create and test an advanced SQL query.
l Import Config: If you previously created and exported a PReS Workflow Database
Connection configuration, click this button to import it. This saves you the trouble of
configuring the connection every time.
l Client-side Cursor:îWhen this option is enabled, the complete result set is downloaded
before processing starts, and changing records is done by PReS Workflow. This is
generally faster for queries returning a small number of results ; otherwise the start of the
record processing can be delayed since the whole record set must be downloaded.
Note
MySQL, using ODBC 5.0, must be set to use a client-side cursor.
Microsoft Access will always work better when using a Server-Side cursor.
l Include password in config: Select to save an encrypted version of the database
password (if any) within the exported configuration.
l
Export Config: Click to export the currently displayed properties of the PReS Workflow
action task. The exported configuration can then be reused on other PReS Workflow
workstations.
Dynamic SQL tab
l Use dynamic values at run-time: Select to use a dynamic database connection string
and / or SQL statement at run-time. Check this box to enable the options included in this
group (this disables the corresponding options in the General tab).
l Parse normally: Select to interpret any backslashes included in the database
connection string as backslashes. If this option is not selected, any backslash that is
