dynamic filter in script

Hi Folks,

i have a question:

my script does look like

load

ID,

Field: Category has only 2 Values: 1 and 2

i want to achieve a situation, where i load my dates where only Category = 1, I know i can solve that with: where Caterory = 1, but i want ti know whether is that makeable with variable:

is that possible with variable?

thanks a lot

You can use variables... do you intend the user to decide if they want to pull Category 1 or Category 2?

Like

Variable = 0/1

Where Category = $(Variable)

or

Like

Variable = 'Caterory = 1'

Where $(Variable)

Create a variable inputbox on the front end (lets call this vVar) and then use this in your where statement

LOAD ....

FROM ....

Where Category = $(vVar);
