ExecSQL Window Preferences

ExecSQL Window - Preferences Menu

The preferences menu contains this options:

Bidirectional querys

Only used if Fast Querys is not selected, if you uncheck this option it can speed up the fetch of records a lot, but you can only navigate forward because only two records are stored in memory.

Query plan

After the execution you can view the query plan, rows affected and execution time on the plan tab.

Show statistics

After the execution you can view the query statistics, this can be used to monitor query performance parameters like indexed reads vs sequential reads, cached writes etc.

Warning: The use of this option consumes a lot more bandwidth, the response time can be long on slow connections.

Save History

Once a sql sentence is executed it is stored on the history, the history is saved when you leave the ExecSQL Window if you Save History option checked.

Fast Querys

Using fast querys no additional field information is fetched from the server, so the querys are faster to execute on the server and the consumed bandwith is reduced a lot, is very useful when working with slow connections, but all the records are fetched afer the execution.

Progres interval

The time that the client application consumes to fetch records is variable, there can be milions of records or a slow connection. You can always stop the fetching of records because a progres window is show, the progres window is updated after fetching some records and you can calcel the operation. Use 1 for slow connections and 100 for fast connections.

Autocommit DDL

After a data definition language statement, commit the active transaction.

Autocommit all

Commit transaction after each statement executed.

Execute selected text

Executes only the selected text (TOAD compatibility).
