Data type

Syntax
To get: statement$ = odbcQuery.SQL
To set: odbcQuery.SQL = statement$
Usage
When an SQL statement is stored, it is analyzed for parameters, table names, and other items, but full parsing can only be performed by the data source when the statement is executed. There is no practical limit to the length of the SQL statement written, nor is the SQL statement limited to a query (SELECT statement). The SQL statement is not executed until an ODBCResultSet object is created and Execute is performed.
When using the SQL property, be aware that Notes could stop under the following circumstances:
