Extended Commands

QRY Console Command

Open NOMADS Query

Format

QRY query_name$,library_file$

Where:

query_name$

Name of the NOMADS query object.

library_file$

Name of the library file. If the location of the library file is different from the current directory, enter the full pathname of the library file.

The query_name$ and library_file$ must be separated by either a comma or a semi-colon.

Description

The QRY command can be used to invoke the NOMADS Session Manager for opening a NOMADS query definition if query_name$ exists.

If query_name$ does not exist, a prompt for selecting the Query Type will display, treating this as a new query definition.

(The QRY command was added in PxPlus 2025.)

Example:

QRY clientsqry;scrnlib.en

QRY deptsqry,c:\work\data\scrnlib.en
