Tool Select by Attributes... (Numerical Expression)
Selects records for which the expression evaluates to non-zero. The expression syntax is the same as the one for the table calculator. If an attribute field is selected, the expression evaluates only this attribute, which can be addressed with the letter 'a' in the expression formula. If no attribute is selected, attributes are addressed by the character 'f' (for 'field') followed by the field number (i.e.: f1, f2, ..., fn) or by the field name in square brackets (e.g.: [Field Name]).
Examples:
- f1 > f2
- eq([Population] * 2, [Area])
