Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (OFFICE-2879) 19.287form:list-source - "consumers may find it necessary to add quotingcharacters to the table name, if advised by the database driver. " Advicefrom a database driver?



    [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2879?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=20713#action_20713 ] 

Dennis Hamilton commented on OFFICE-2879:
-----------------------------------------

I'm not questioning any of that Patrick.  However we are specifying what is communicated in the format, not what happens in a client, which is practically anything.  (They should talk about query results, not the queries themselves though.  The query is in a query language, the query result looks like a table in the case of a relational-database/SQL query.)  The material you quote is not relevant to the question about what the format of a table name is in this attribute.

However, for this specific issue, the relevant provision is that a DEFAULT SQL QUERY is *UNDERSTOOD*.  The query is not written into the document by the producer, which would need to use a different value in another attribute to have form:list-source be in query syntax   So consumer implementation of that default when form:list-source is a table name needs to know how to do any escaping and quoting of table names.  I note, as you doubtless have already, that "database driver" is undefined in this specification and it is not even clear that it is accurate to mention such a thing in the statement at issue.

But I will do as is necessary in these cases and open a separate issue, since this one is confined to the grammatical issue you raised.
