## What it does
**SQL Query Description**
=========================

This SQL query retrieves specific data from the `Machines` table based on a condition specified in the form control `[PartNumber]`.

**Query Breakdown**
------------------

### SELECT Clause

The `SELECT` clause specifies the columns to be retrieved:

*   `Machines.PartNumber`: The part number of the machine.
*   `Machines.MachineName`: The name of the machine.
*   `Machines.CycleTime`: The cycle time of the machine.
*   `Machines.Tool`: The tool used for the machine.
*   `Machines.Prime`: A flag indicating whether the machine is prime (TRUE or FALSE).

### FROM Clause

The `FROM` clause specifies the table to retrieve data from:

*   `Machines`: The `Machines` table.

### WHERE Clause

The `WHERE` clause applies a condition to filter the data:

*   `(((Machines.PartNumber)=[Forms]![Process Sheet]![PartNumber]))`: This is an example of an embedded expression that compares the part number in the database with the value entered in the form control `[PartNumber]`.

**Note**: The use of square brackets (`[]`) around the form control references suggests that this query is part of a larger application built using Microsoft Access or another GUI-based database system.

**Example Use Case**
--------------------

This query could be used to display specific machine data on a report or in a table, filtered by a particular part number. The value entered in the form control `[PartNumber]` would determine which machines are displayed in the result set.

**Best Practices and Suggestions**
-----------------------------------

*   Consider using parameterized queries to avoid SQL injection vulnerabilities.
*   Use meaningful column aliases instead of `PartNumber`, `MachineName`, etc.
*   Add a comment or description above the query to explain its purpose and any assumptions made.
