"Merging" SQL Recall history ?

In TOAD For Oracle (currently using version 12), I see that there is an option in SQL Recall (F8) to import and export savedsql.dat files now. I also see that there is an “append” option, but it doesn’t seem to work for me.

What I want to be able to do is take a savedsql.dat file from another computer and MERGE it into my savedsql.dat. I have tried to do this with the Import and Append option, but it always overwrites my current history with just the history from the file I am importing. Is this a bug or is it not designed to work that way.

How can I merge two savedsql.dat files together and have access to all the combined history going forward, that’s my goal.

There is no way to merge.

Okay, I guess it is what it is then. So what is the “append” setting on the Import dialog all about, what is that trying to say?

Ok, I should've checked that first. I see what you're talking about. I forgot that feature was even added. It's working for me, perhaps you're at the max history limit and that's blocking. In Options|Editor|Code Assist increase the SQL Recall statements to
save setting. Double it or so. Click OK and now try your import again.

Bingo! Thanks. I did wonder at one point if there might be a size limit, but didn’t think to look in “Code Assist” for a history setting. Thanks much for the help.
