Overview

What is a QRY file? A QRY file is a query file that contains commands written in Structured Query Language ( SQL ) that interact with relational databases by inserting, updating, retrieving, or deleting data. Database administrators, analysts, and developers may use QRY files to store and run individual queries or a group of queries in batch form, often with database management tools like MySQL, PostgreSQL, or Microsoft SQL Server.

More Information In some cases, QRY files use custom or proprietary formats specific to certain software applications. These files may include additional information or settings related to how queries should be executed or displayed. For example, some reporting or data analysis tools save QRY files that contain not only the SQL statements but also metadata about data sources, filters, or output formats.
