Wait, can you really just reference it like that?

I feel like there might be more steps involved to ensure that all queries are updated correctly. Just creating a new query seems too simple.

I'm a bit confused here. Does just creating a new query really solve the issue of updating all instances of the data source?

I remember a similar practice question where we had to replace hard-coded values, and it seemed like referencing the parameter directly was the right move.

I think creating a new query that references the parameter might be a good approach, but I'm not entirely sure if it fully meets the goal.

This seems like a good opportunity to demonstrate my ability to work with parameters. I'll create the new query and reference the DataSourceExcel parameter.

I'm a bit confused. Does the question mean I need to update all the queries that reference the data source, or just create a new query? I'll need to think this through.

This looks like a tricky XML namespace question. I'll need to carefully analyze the namespace declarations in the XML document to determine which one the "usage" attribute belongs to.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know interfaces are important, but I'm not sure I fully grasp the specific reasons why it's important to follow the same ones. I'll need to think this through carefully.

Okay, let's break this down step-by-step. FFE collected basic personal info like name, contact, age, and ID from prospective clients. They also got Stephen's messenger/cell details through Kelvin. And they shared his info with affiliates for marketing. I'll need to evaluate each of those against the data collection principle.

Okay, I've got this. Banks would never publish links to phishing websites, so that's an easy one to rule out. The other options seem more plausible, so I'll need to analyze them closely.

As long as the new query correctly references the parameter, this should do the trick. Nice and simple, just the way I like it.

Creating a new query that references the parameter is a valid solution. It allows you to centralize the data source location and update it in one place if needed.
