B.1. User-Defined Values

User-defined values may be used within expressions to be compared against column values. String values should be enclosed within single quotes. Date values should be enclosed within pound signs (#). Decimals and scientific notation are permissible for numeric values. For example:

"FirstName = 'John'"
"Price <= 50.00"
"Birthdate < #1/31/82#"

For columns that contain enumeration values, cast the value to an integer data type. For example:

"EnumColumn = 5"
