I think I know why I’m having problems with Toad messing up with my connections for my Editors. It appears that the logic may be backwards for a “new” connection vs changing the connection for an Editor window.

When I am on an Editor and select a connection using the “Change Connection” button, I get a new window for that connection. When I use the “New Connection” button, the connection for my current Editor changes (which has been painful when I’m running a process in the Editor that isn’t done yet.

I’m still seeing this behavior in the latest beta.

Blessings,

Phyllis
