In SQL like systems one can select records from a file based on the values
of a field in a connected file.
For example, something like:
SELECT {all records}
FROM {the file} PARTS
WHERE PARTS.SupplierID = SUPPLIER.ID {this links the files} AND
SUPPLIER.City='New York' {this selects the records I want}
Note that no looping nor explicit IF THEN ELSE statements are used.
Is something similar possible in 4th Dimension ? How do you do it ?
any help would be much appreciated !

Have a nice day!
