title: mssql statements on Javascript
body: <p>I am a beginner programmer and I am having difficult to understand this statement.</p>
  
  <pre><code>.input('pCodigoPedidoSAP', mssql.VarChar(16), filter.codigoPedidoSap)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What means the dot before input, and what exactly input function does. The 'pCodigoPedidoSAP' is a parameter from my SQL procedure.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
