What does "click on

SeeSql Query Examplesfor more information

in my FlexSim versions." mean?

What are you clicking? Where are you clicking?

It sounds like you are clicking on a broken link in the user manual, but you don't explain what user manual page you are talking about.

It might be when you go to the information page for Table.query (press f1 on query) and go to the bottom of that page. That link gives an error msg, but searching in the usermanual can get you to the correct page.

The links in query()'s command documentation in the Command Helper window and the User Manual all seem to be working fine in 18.2.2.

You are getting an error message when you click the link in the query() command documentation?

Hi @phil.bobo ,

the user manual page I´m on (it seems as if there are some different ways to go there) is called "Table.query" and the links I´ve clicked on are shown in the attached picture

And I´ve found this not only in 2018.2 but also in 2018.1 and 2018.0.

That's a broken link in that documentation page. It should be going to Reference > Developer and Advanced User Reference > SQL Queries:

I'll add a case to the dev list to fix the broken link and consider how to catch broken links in the FlexScript API documentation.
