Hello,

please add functionality for pin query results in Data Grid.

Multiple SQL queries could be run in one Editor tab and results in Data Grid would be overwiten, unless result would be pinned. If query result in Data Grid is pinned, new tab in Data Grid is created.

Thank you

For clarity, both to this user, and for our R&D staff, we already do this capability in Toad Datapoint. &nbsp;Should really be ported to all Toad flavors... thanks.

If you want it, vote for it. The more votes it gets, the more likely we are to add it.

If I want to keep some data around while I look at other query results, I usually rt-click and export dataset to Excel Instance (this does not save it to a file, just pushes data to Excel . If Excel is already open, a new sheet is opened). Either that or I just open a new Editor tab.

This has been added to the current Toad beta. This will be in Toad version 17.0.
