    - About query filters
      Add filter definitions to queries to select only those database records that meet the criteria you define.
    - Querying across multiple record types
      The first step in creating a query is to select a record type. You can only select one record type from the list.
    - Creating and running queries
      Create queries to retrieve records in a user database. You can create a query for any record type that is defined in Rational® ClearQuest® Web.

      You can provide other users direct access to the results of a query or data-push chart by sending a URL by e-mail.
    - Running recent records, queries, and charts again
      Rational® ClearQuest® Web keeps a history of recently run records, queries, and data-push charts during your current user session so that you can run them again.
    - Configuring startup queries or charts
      You can configure Rational® ClearQuest® Web to run a startup query or data-push chart each time you log in to a user database. Only one startup query or chart can be set.
    - Clearing startup queries or charts
      You can stop a particular query or data-push chart from running when Rational® ClearQuest® starts up.
