An Ad-Hoc Query is a query that cannot be determined prior to the moment the query is issued. It is created in order to get information when need arises and it consists of dynamically constructed SQL  which is usually constructed by desktop-resident query tools. This is in contrast to any query which is predefine and performed routinely.
