Adding a table to the SQL statement

The standard ArcMap Query Builder allows you to construct a WHERE clause to filter or select the rows of a feature class or table based on attributes contained within it. With the Visual Specifications Tool's Query Builder, you can construct full SQL SELECT statements, including inner joins of multiple tables and feature classes. If needed, you can fully specify all the clauses (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, GROUP BY, and ORDER BY) that a SQL query supports.
