Jacob Lyohne, Director of Development: "Regarding implementation, it is pretty self-explanatory and the SQLite Maestro manual is helpful for review and reference. We also found the on-line documentation useful and the software support staff readily available to answer our questions. Reports are very easy and quick to run and can be broken down into any number of statistical combinations".
Mario Figueiredo: "I can safely forget all I know about SQL when using SQLite Maestro. It is that easy and intuitive to use. It is also nicely drawn with an easy and appealing interface that makes the sometimes boring tasks of database maintenance and administration more endurable.
The decision to support the non-commercial use of your software with a lower price is absolutely worth mentioning. For that alone, I thank you. For everything else, I say keep up the good work".

Create View Wizard

Create View Wizard guides you through the process of creating a new view. See How To Create View to learn how to run this wizard.

 

The basic principles of Create Object Wizards in SQLite Maestro are covered by the corresponding topic. See below to find the description of wizard steps that are unique to the current object.

 

Selecting fields for a new view

Select a table or a view from the Based on drop-down menu. Then specify which fields will be used in the new view. Use Add All or Add Selected buttons to include field(s) into view definition. Use the Remove Selected or Remove All items to exclude field(s) from the view's field list. Click the Next button to proceed.

 

Specifying the WHERE condition

SQLite Maestro provides the Filter Builder dialog to facilitate a creating of the WHERE condition.

 

 

Suppose we need to select orders from the sample table Orders made between 01.02.2010 and 10.02.2010. These criteria are applied to the OrderDate column. Press the button to add this condition. Alternatively, you can use the Filter button and select the Add Condition option from the drop-down menu.

 

 

 

 

Select the OrderDate column in the drop-down list of the available columns.                                                                                                                                                      

 

 

 

 

Set the proper operator. In our example it is BETWEEN.                                                                                                                                                                                  

 

 

 

 

Next, you need to specify the range values for the selected operator. The editor used in value boxes is determined by the editor type assigned to the corresponding column.

 

 

Now use the Apply button to see the filter result.

 

You can add additional conditions to the same root level to be combined by the AND operator.

 

 

Suppose we need to select orders made between 01.02.2010 and 10.02.2010 and payed via 'Visa' or 'American Express'. This is a complex filter condition combining two simple conditions with the OR operator. Conditions from the same root level are combined by the AND operator. To add a condition combined with the previous one with the OR (NOT AND, NOT OR) operator, use a new group of conditions.

 

 

The next screen represents the finished filter conditions for this example.

 

Adding view subitems

On this step of the wizard you can specify  triggers of the new view.

To add a new object:

Press Insert or use pop-up menu to open the Create Trigger Wizard;

•Specify new object properties.
