The three criteria set by the IAU in Prague in 2006 are 1) that it is in Solar orbit; 2) it is in hydrostatic equilibrium (massive enough to have a round shape) and 3) has cleared its orbital neighborhood.

What is the criteria used to determine an object as a planet?

The 2006 (re)definition of a planet includes three criteria - 1) it is in orbit around the Sun, 2) it's achieved hydrostatic equilibrium (characterized by sufficient mass to have a rounded shape), 3) it has cleared the area around it orbit. Under this last criteria, Pluto, formerly considered a planet, is now classified as a dwarf planet as it has only cleared a tiny fraction of its orbit.


Can AND criteria determine fields selected for a query?

Criteria determine what records can be shown, not what fields can be shown, so the AND criteria cannot be used to determine what fields to select.
