With the EDIT command, QUERY branches to the INPUT mode where SQL statements can be entered.
Examples
edit
edit customertable
Comments
1. EDIT is only available if QUERY was not called with XQUERY LIST.
2. If the name of a stored command is specified, QUERY copies this command into the input area. It can be modified, executed, or restored.
3. The 
key has the same effect as the EDIT command. The 
key branches to the input area, too, but it does not accept parameters.
