static void Job12(Args _args)
{
    CustTable cust;
    Query query = new Query();
    QueryBuildDataSource qbds;
    QueryBuildRange queryRange1, queryRange2;
    ;

    qbds = query.addDataSource(tableNum(CustTable));

    queryRange1 = qbds.addRange(fieldNum(CustTable, AccountNum));
    queryRange1.value('1168201');

    queryRange2 = qbds.addRange(fieldNum(CustTable, AccountNum));
    queryRange2.value('9034518');

    info(qbds.toString());
}

Result in string format as below image :

1

SELECT * FROM CustTable(CustTable_1) WHERE ((AccountNum = N'1168201') OR (AccountNum = N'9034518'))
