ExecuteSQL from different file

I'm starting to get my head around this new function so apologies if this is an obvious question. I have a large and quite complicated practice management system which has evolved over the years from 5.1; hence many files (sometimes by choice as well).

Can the ExecuteSQL query be run from one file to another file (each file containing many tables)? Is the ExecuteSQL query limited to the tables in the current file? If it can, what is the syntax?

If not I guess I'm going to have to script the command out of other files which would be a real shame.

Thanks in advance for your comments/help.

ExecuteSQL uses TO's on the graph. If there is a TO for a table from another file it should work. Haven't tested it.
