Running a Query

You can run any public queries defined by the Rational® ClearQuest® administrator. You can also run any queries that you create.

To run a query:
  1. Click View > ClearQuest > Change Request Queries.
  2. In the Workspace folder, navigate to the query you want to run.
  3. Double-click the query.
Depending on the query you selected, you might be prompted to specify parameters that further define it. If a parameter prompt appears, specify the necessary information and click Run Query. If you leave the parameter blank, the query ignores it.

If you selected a new query, Rational ClearQuest opens the Change Requests window, with which you can define query parameters.

Results are displayed in the Result set page of the Change Requests window, and the first record in the list of results is opened in a new document window. If the query returns no results, you see this message, "The query did not return any data."

You can open a record by double-clicking on an entry. The record opens in a document window.

If none of the available queries produces the expected results, you can create a new query.
