Abstract

A method, apparatus and article of manufacture provide a user interface allowing user selection and arrangement of result fields selected, in one embodiment, from a logical model. In one embodiment, the user interface is a graphical user interface and comprises input cells for user-selected logical result fields. The cells are arranged to define a geometric relationship between logical result fields which dictates the combinatorial statement type by which the logical result fields in the cells are related in a query.
