Creating SQL statements in the SQL builder by using a data project

You can use the SQL Scripts folder in a data project to create an SQL statement in the SQL builder.

The SQL builder supports creating SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, FULLSELECT, and WITH (DB2® only) statements. A statement that you create is stored in a file with the extension .sql.

Prerequisite: Before you create an SQL statement by using a data project, create a data project in the Data Project Explorer view.

To create an SQL statement in the SQL builder by using a data project:

  1. Open the Data perspective.
  2. In the Data Project Explorer view, expand the data project, right-click the SQL Scripts folder, and then click New > SQL or XQuery Script on the pop-up menu.
  3. Complete the New SQL or XQuery Script wizard, clicking SQL builder and selecting a statement type.
  4. Click Finish. The SQL statement is added to the SQL Scripts folder of the data project and opens in the SQL builder.
  5. Use the SQL builder to specify the type of statement that you selected in the wizard:
  6. Save the statement.
