First off, apologies for the basic post. I’m new to toad coming from SQL management studio. I’m trying to export to .txt the results from a query (F5) but I keep getting the message “You have reached your low memory threshold” is there a way to run the script with a straight output to txt? I’ve tried database-> spool sql to file and then pressing F5 but still get the error. The query is a join among three tables for about 60K records and about 25 columns so given the data types nothing that shouldn’t be too hard to handle. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I get that if I have too many tabs and connections open or when I'very created too many tables.
To verify the error do you get it when you run just the query with shift [F9] ?

Something to keep in mind with script execution is that the values are displayed as strings so when allocating memory to show your data, if you have a VARCHAR2(4000) setup, Toad has to allocate enough memory to store all 4k characters. the “bits” can add up very quickly depending on the data types involved.
Instead, whenever you want to do data exports, you should use F9. Then you can simply export the data set to whatever format you’d like.

One more detail about F9 - if you export from an F9 grid, be sure to UNcheck “display all results in grid” in the export dialog. That re-executes your query in a way that does not load all rows into memory at the same time, so you should not run out of memory as long as that box is enabled but unchecked.

Thank you.
