// .NAME vtkRowQueryToTable - executes an sql query and retrieves results into a table
//
// .SECTION Description
// vtkRowQueryToTable creates a vtkTable with the results of an arbitrary SQL
// query.  To use this filter, you first need an instance of a vtkSQLDatabase
// subclass.  You may use the database class to obtain a vtkRowQuery instance.
// Set that query on this filter to extract the query as a table.
//
// .SECTION Thanks
// Thanks to Andrew Wilson from Sandia National Laboratories for his work
// on the database classes.
