    really good tips. I'm also looking for some tip to keep the code format when copying and pasting and also keeping the colors in SQL editor. I looked for it hardly but it seems to be a feature that does not exist. I heard Toad has a setup where you copy using Rich Text. In case you know anything please also share.

    One feature you’d like is improved backup. It has become very simple to spare your work in the tool. Before this patch we were developers were permitted to save around hundred articulations as a matter of course. But now you set aside to 500 explanations in the addition to the new feature of Oracle DB, cloud services has improved the transferring information.

    Thanks a lot! Is there a keyboard shortcut to hide the result grid, Like the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio's Ctrl+R?

  • @DatabaseStar

    Good question, I'm not sure. There's a list of keyboard shortcuts currently in SQL Developer in the Preferences window, and you can set a shortcut if it's in the list and none is applied.

    you can do it via keyboard, but not easily, def not with a single keystroke. Limitation I hope to have fixed with our new version of SQL Dev coming later in 2023.

    How do you extract results (including the column names) from a stored procedure which output is a sys refcursor?

    Hi, Thanks for the awesome tips. I am trying to duplicate the connection window on the left. Is it possible? Basically, I am trying to open multiple packages and tables in parallel and currently with 1 connection window, I have to scroll to packages and tables list each time.

  • @DatabaseStar

    Hmm I'm not sure if you can actually. You can open multiple packages at once, in different tabs, but you would have to scroll the list each time.

    Do you have tips on exporting queries faster?

  • @DatabaseStar

    @DatabaseStar

    Жыл бұрын

    Exporting the results of queries? Not that I know of. There may be a command to save the results of a query to a text file or CSV file in SQL but I don't know off the top of my head.

  • @JeffSmiththat

    When you export the results, the application runs the query again. If you want to avoid this, return all the results from the query BEFORE you do an export.

    sql developer is real pain whenever you import/export huge data especially into excel/csv format. it literally hangs and locks everything - crazy.

    Yeah, I've found it can be slow when doing this. That's annoying that it locks :(

    if it's a huge file, always convert it to CSV first, and then the memory footprint and CPU requirements will be a FRACTION of what they'd be otherwise.
