[Rets-dev] DMQL2 query

[Sergio Del Rio]

Mark Sleeman and I are quite sure that the grammar does not, in fact, allow
ranges for string data types.  Where do you see that the grammar allows
this?

See section 7.7.3 of the 1.7 specification.

(LP=200000-350000)

List price between 200,000 and 350,000 inclusive.

Section 7.7.2, Query parameter interpretation has a word definition of 
it and section 7.7.1 has the BNF definition for the "range" atom.

In your specific case, the MLS number may be a range, but it could also 
be a string list depending on how it is defined in the system under 
question. Check the metadata to determine what the mls number data type 
is. Range list is defined for both number and string so it should work 
in either case.
