This tool allows for the user to execute SQL statements against the database. Because this is a high-level function, it is recommended that this menu item be set using the Security Tools to only be accessible by the system administrator.

This tool provides several advantages over the administrative tools provided by Microsoft:

• Access is limited to the AirVision database only (makes IT administrators happy)
• Query results can be exported to Excel or XML

The most common use would be execution of update scripts or "canned" scripts provided by Agilaire's support staff.

Via the ribbon, the user can load a file of SQL statements, execute the statement, and save the results to a file.
