A "view" lets you select out certain columns and filter the rows using criteria such as >, <, <>, >=, etc.

I'll put in my 2 cents...

While a view can be a complicated resultset an Excel person would probably understand a view as a filtered display. But then who really understands Excel people?

If you were to describe a View to an excel user who has little or no familiarity with SQL Server or databases generally, would it be correct to suggest "Query" as an analogous term? For my own edification, how does a view differ from a query?
