History-F8

Message from: falujar

Regards
I’m a new toad for oracle user. I read in help section that I can use F8 or
ALT+up to scroll through history sql commands. When I press that key, history
space is empty. Does anyone know how to activate “history option”
Thank you so much for your help

Afternoon falujar,

I'm a new toad for oracle user. I read in help section that
I can use F8 or ALT+up to scroll through history sql
commands. When I press that key, history space is empty.
Does anyone know how to activate "history option"
Thank you so much for your help

When you press F8, there are three tabs on the window that appears,
History, Personal, Named. Can you see anything on any of the tabs?

The history is kept in a file named:
C:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Quest
Software\Toad for Oracle\User Files\SavedSQL.dat and that file
should not be read only. In addition, your user should be able to write
to it. (Don't try editing it in Notepad - it's a binary file as well as
some text!).

If you are running Vista or above, and an older version of Toad (9.x or
lower) then you may be hitting a problem whereby Vista (and above)
flatly refuses to allow you to put files in folders below "Program
Files".

HTH

Cheers,
Norm. [TeamT]

Morning Norm
I see History, personal and named tabs but they are empty. I’m using windows 7 and toad for oracle 10.6.0.42. I couldn’t find savedsql.dat file.
My workmate is using the same O.S and toad version and she can see sql history at the left. What else can I check?
Thank you so much

Hi falujar,

I've posted this query, and the whole thread to the Toad list rather
than the toadsql list. More developers hang out there than here I
suspect. If you can't see the savedsql file, I'm at a loss to advise I'm
afraid.

Can you take a copy of your colleague's file and paste it into the
appropriate location on your Windows 7 PC. When you restart Toad, you
should then see your colleague's history and saved sql (I hope!).

Cheers,
Norm. [TeamT]

Hi Norm
I've attached an image. Maybe with that you can have any idea about what happen with my toad for oracle configuration.
Thank you so much
History toad.png

What button do you press when you execute statements in Toad?

if it’s also F5, then you’ll never build a history list.

Try executing with F9 and looking at that list again
