Remarks

QueryExpression provides an object model to construct a query. Queries can also be created using FetchXML, a proprietary XML based query language. You can convert queries between FetchXML and QueryExpression using FetchXmlToQueryExpressionRequest and QueryExpressionToFetchXmlRequest messages. More information: Sample: Convert queries between Fetch and QueryExpression.
