Anyone who has provided auditors with query extracts knows the Audit World is currently has a requirement to document the number of records that were extracted. This is most commonly done by providing a print screen of the query screen showing the record counts.
Since the TOAD Tool already knows the record count, it would be a very useful feature - if you added a checkbox feature in the Export Dataset screen to automatically capture the record count. Just like the Export can create the SQL worksheet to document the code used, I would think it would be a simple enhancement for TOAD to create a another worksheet to formally document the record count for the executed query/saved data.
This would be a built in control that the audit community could use to verify that the excel worksheet contains all of the query records.
Thanks for your consideration.
