Reply Contact To my knowledge, owssvr.dll doesn't handle complex queries like that. What version of SharePoint are you using? If 2010, you may want to use the OData service.

Reply Contact Hi Serenity, We have another tool that supports very complex queries. It's bundled in the DBXL Web service and you will need to install on the ShP server.

That command supports multiple filters, like this:
FilterOwssvr /dsname=FilterOwssvr /filter=Deduction,Price /value=Charity,1000
(comma delimit both the filter and value parameters)
Hope this helps.

Hi Serenity,
We have another tool that supports very complex queries. It's bundled in the DBXL Web service and you will need to install on the ShP server. Easy to use though and we have lots of documentation.
