Hi all!

Can any one explain what is the purpose of

WHERE 1=2"

What the statement means. in below code?

query = "SELECT * FROM project WHERE 1=2"

Thanks in advance

Hi,
This WHERE 1 = 2 is probably using for Copying the Structure of the Table into another one. That is creating a new table by the existing table without copying the records. because the condition 1 = 2 is always false.

Hi,

It is basically used to Open Recordset / Or Get the Table Structure without any Records.. As when 1 will never be equal to 2, No Records are retireived.. but you get the table structure..
