Conflicting use of F3 key in SQL worksheet

The use of the F3 key in the SQL worksheet tab, where this key performs a Rollback, seems to conflict with the menu option Edit->Find Next.
The first time you press the F3 key in the SQL worksheet a rollback is performed. Second and subsequent F3 keystrokes do a Find Next.
In addition, the first time you open a SQL worksheet tab and do a Find next via F3, nothing happens.
Steps:
1. open a SQL worksheet.
2. Paste the following text in:
the
yyyy
uuuu
pppp
uuuu
the
yyyy
uuuu
pppp
uuuu
the
yyyy
uuuu
3. Move cursor to start of first line in worksheet.
4. Press Ctrl-F to initiate search and search on the string 'uuuu' by clicking OK.
5. Press F3 to Find Next. Nothing happens.
SQL Developer version: 1.0.013.43, Build MAIN-13.43
Platform: Windows XP SP2.

In the Accelerators, the F3 is set to 2 options: Rollback and Find Next.
I think that this I would have to be modified in the proper tool, modifying the value standard of one of the two options, but to solve its problem, you can manually modify the value of these options (Tools - Preferences - Accelerators).

  • Mac - SQLDev 1.5 - Unable to use carriage return/enter in SQL Worksheet

    This morning I brought up SQLDeveloper (1.5). I connected to a database. Started typing in a query and the carriage return (or enter) does not work. If I go to a menu or the list of files, it does work. Just not in the SQL Worksheet. I removed the application and re-installed. Still the same. I do not see this behavior in any other application or situation. Just within the SQL Worksheet of SQLDeveloper.
    As a check, I did exit all other applications, rebooted, and tried again. Still no joy. I have the latest updates of Leopard and SQLDeveloper. I am guessing it is not using the latest Java but rather what was deployed with SQLDeveloper.
    Any thoughts on how I could lose these two keys? There is no change to the system preferences for the keyboard. There is no setup to have the carriage return or enter key be mapped to anything else.
    Very odd. I tried looking around the application and only in the SQL Worksheet does it not work.
    Any ideas?
    Eric

    Ahh, I was pulling my hair out over this since last week (on a PC, not a Mac). I just couldn't figure out why I could no longer add a line feed on the SQL worksheet when I hadn't changed anything at all.
    Anyway, I still have no idea how the settings got changed, but resetting to defaults did the trick. Thanks!

  • Unable to use backspace key in SQL Developer

    hi
    I am unable to use backspace or arrow keys in SQL worksheet using SQL developer.
    Can any one help me out...?
    You can also contact me on [email protected]
    regards
    Ahsan

    Hi,
    to give a worst case. I downloaded actual releases for JDeveloper and SQLDeveloper for MacOS and on my Mac this case is totally unsolved. I tried to check he settings within the preferences.xml but no "googled" solution works to get SPACE and BACKSPACE to work.
    I will try the older versions.
    I previously used my migrated versions from my older Linux system and everything worked fine. Installing the integrated MacOS versions is fine but using the linux way (using the shell command) seems to work. Hope this will help to find the bug within the packages.
    Bye,

  • Can't edit in SQL Worksheet

    Currently using version 1.1.2.25 Build MAIN-25.79
    Yesterday I installed updates and extension for using Subversion.
    This morning having started SQL Developer up I am unable to use arrow keys, backspace, return key, delete key, home, end keys in SQL Worksheet. All these keys are available in Microsoft Word so its not the keypad.
    Can anyone provide an answer as a matter of urgency.
    Thanks.

    I would be amazed it if worked. So many differences between SQL Dev and JDev.. not to mention that SQL Dev is built on an unreleased JDev platform. Uninstall that extension and everything will probably go back to normal. You can setup external tools to mimic (albeit crudely) some of the functionality of the extension.

  • ORA-0911 Errors in SQL Worksheet

    Is anyone else getting ORA-0911 errors in the Worksheet when they press F9? It is, of course, not consistent or easily repeatable, but seems to occur when I've got more than about three SQL statements in the worksheet and just typed another at the end.
    It's not a problem with my SQL, because I can cut and then paste the statement elsewhere in the worksheet and F9 will work fine. Of course when I then cut and paste it back to the bottom it carries on working as well.
    I'm trying to figure out exactly when this happens but of course the behaviour isn't consistent enough to narrow it down. I'm hoping that other people are also seeing this error message a lot and that there is either a known problem or that we can collectively figure out what is going on.

    The specific error must be in one of the earlier threads that was talking about this problem, but when I have problem with SQL Worksheet not identifying the current statement out of multiple statements, it is almost always the ORA-911.
    If the statement runs fine when you select the specific text, then I would say that the problem is the SQL Worksheet statement selection rather than anything to do with the DB version.
    As an example - I am connecting to 9.2.0.5 and if my SQL Worksheet contains:
    select dummy
    from dual
    where dummy like '%'
    select dummy
    from dual
    where dummy not like '%'
    If I use F9 anywhere in the SQL Worksheet, I get the ORA-911 error.
    However if I select the the text of either statement, it runs fine (first returning a record and second not).
    If I delete the two where clauses, I don't get the ORA-911 error, even if I don't select the statement text explicitly.

  • SQL Worksheet Gets Slower and S.l..o...w....e.....r with Use

    Does anyone else notice the more you use SQL Worksheet, the
    slower it gets? The first time I start it up, it'll run a
    compile on an object super-fast. After running a dozen or more
    compiles and test scripts, I notice it's getting slower.
    Eventually, it's so slow I just kill SQL Worksheet and start it
    right back up. Then it's back to warp speed again!
    I'm on a Win2K machine, running Oracle 8.0.6, with version 1.6.0
    of SQL Worksheet.
    I have 2.1 install disc for Oracle Enterprise Manager, but I'm
    uncertain if I can update what I've got (given the release of
    Oracle I'm on). Any help here would be appreciated, too.

    The box does not reboot itself at 7am every day at the behest of BT that is not normal behaviour.
    I think you really ought to fo  a hard reset and clear everything off your hard drive and see if it solves your problem.
    If it does not then you are I think looking at a slowly dying box which needs to be replaced.
    Factory Reset
    Switch off the Vision+ box at the mains socket
    Hold down the front panel OK and down arrow buttons
    Switch on the power to the Vision+ box
    Allow the box to start up (about 15 seconds)
    Release the OK and down arrow buttons
    The Vision+ box will then contact the servers to get a new copy of its firmware
    This will take around 30 minutes

  • SQL Data Sync - column type invalid for use as a key column

    Hello,
    our sync group is failing to do the sync. Here's a tracingID:
    For more information, provide tracing ID ‘e3e568b5-140a-4ae5-a4c8-c178c6bf805d’ to customer support.
    I must say, that the column in DB is not a PK or INDEX-ed, it was initially VARCHAR(MAX), after some reading I changed it to VARCHAR(200) and later to TEXT, but the result of syncing is still the same.
    Thank you,
    Bojan

    Hi Bojan,
    The error “column type invalid for use as a key column” could be due to the existence of unsupported data types or column properties when implementing the synchronization. I recommend you check your database according to this article:
    SQL Database Data Types supported by SQL Data Sync.
    Besides, before you design and implement a data synchronization plan, please check the following articles about system requirements for SQL Data Sync and so on.
    System Requirements for SQL Data Sync

  • SQL-Developer 1.5.4 - SQL-Worksheet does not use Table-Owner

    In old versions of the sql-Developer you can drop a Table in the Worksheet and a select Query was built. With the new version 1.5.4 the table-owner is missng and you must fill in the table-owner or the query does not work with tables of other users.
    Is that a bug or are there the posibility of change settings to drop tables in the SQL-worksheet with table-owners.

    The drag and drop functionality was updated so that when you use drag and drop the schema is not prefixed for the current user you are connected to. However it is appended if you drag a table form another connection. It appears to have been overlooked for Other Users. We will address this in a future release. In the meantime,a workaround is to create a connection to the other users and then the drag and drop will append the connection name.

  • Using tab key in SQL developer

    I am trying to write my PL/SQL code using SQL developer and I want to use the tab key for my alignment. Whenever I press the tab key the cursor is not moving forward. Do any of you know how can I make it work?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Thank you for pointing out a "known problem" with the accelerators! I've been having a problem whereby I suddenly became unable to use the backspace or delete keys to make changes to code. Interestingly, I loaded the preset accelerators as you suggested to handle problems with the tab key and suddenly everything else works fine now.

  • [1.1.2.25.79] Backspace key still doesn't work in SQL Worksheet

    See [1.1.1.25.14] Backspace key doesn't work in SQL Worksheet
    The same problem still applies to build 1.1.2.25.79, only this time, for added fun, the suggested workaround of editing
    <sqldeveloper_home>\sqldeveloper\system\oracle.ide.1.1.2.25.79\settings.xml
    doesn't work either. I'm well and truly stuck now.

    Just to add weight to the "it doesn't default to
    [0]", on my installation it is [8] and I have never
    had problems with the backspace.Interesting, if I do a clean install (just unzipping sqldeveloper-1.1.2.2579-no-jre.zip to a random dir, starting up sqldeveloper.exe, pointing it to my j2sdk and ignoring the 'migrate settings from previous release' dialog) the \sqldeveloper\system\oracle.ide.1.1.2.25.79 remains empty until I shut down SQL Developer.
    During shutdown, 8 files are created in this dir, one of which is settings.xml. Low and behold the contents:
    <Item class="oracle.javatools.util.Pair">
    <first class="java.lang.String">Ide.LAST_EDIT_CMD_ID</first>
    <second class="oracle.ide.keyboard.KeyStrokes">

  • DEL,BACKSPACE,HOME etc not responding in SQL Worksheet

    When I'm loading a snippet in the SQL Worksheet and trying to edit it, i can't use the home,del, backspace, home, enter keys of my keyboard. They are not responding, only the letter and numeric keys are working.
    Does anybody know how i can solve this problem?

    Please search the forum before posting.
    Now that you've posted already: Preferences - Accelerators - Load Preset - Default should do the trick...
    Hope that helps,

  • 1.5.4. "Toggle SQL Worksheet Area" not found

    In 1.5.3. there was a very usefull shortcut for "Toggle SQL Worksheet Area", but I couldn't find it in Version 1.5.4. Is there a similar functionality now in 1.5.4?
    Enhancement request: Maybe this "Toggle" functionality can be improved to "Toggle and set the focus/cursor into the result set/SQL Worksheet". Then it's more easy just to work with the keyboard. Otherwise you have to mouse-click into the result set to navigate through the data. Would be nice to have this feature.
    Edited by: user4125343 on 04.03.2009 10:25

    I have personally found it useful when the feature is debated here before being put on the feature request page. Or at least having the url of the OTN forum discussion in the feature request.
    Now a tip. If you can assign SqlHistory's default accelerator F8 to something else, to free up F8 in worksheet...while in ScriptOutput tab hit F8 and the use up/down arrow keys to move the splitpane.
    This comes from Java Swing, is not perfect for worksheet, nonetheless nice to know.

  • How to execute procedure in SQL Worksheet ?

    Hi, anybody know, how I can execute procedure here?
    I try EXEC sec_roles, EXEC security_admin.sec_roles, EXECUTE - there is a SQL statement error. When I use CALL - there is no such procedure (I have execute previleges).
    Although in SQLPlus EXEC works, but there are problems with standard SQL commands (all of them returns "2" no matter what content is).
    Any ideas?
    Regards
    Krzysztof

    exec procedure(parameters) is a sql plus (and a few others) shortcut for
    BEGIN
       procedure(parameters);
    END;So try that then pressing/clicking whatever it is in sql worksheet that makes a statement run.
    Note that if your procedure has parameters defined as OUT or IN OUT, you will need to supply a variable to accept the returned value(s).

  • Can I use PageUp, PageDown keys

    Hello Sir/Madam
    Can I use PageUp, PageDown keys for increasing or decreasing numeric value?
    For e.g. - Lot_No is a field in a table and an item on a form. If I press PageUp key, then Lot_No should be decreased by 1 and information related to new Lot_No should be displayed. If I press PageDown key, then Lot_No should be increased by 1 and information related to new Lot_No should be displayed. The position of cursor remain on the same item.
    How can I do this? I have tried to find the solution in google, but it displays only java or .net solution. I am using Report 6i. How can I do this in PL/SQL?
    Waiting for your reply....
    Regards,
