Newbie to sql developer, how to stop a query

Hi All,
A very basic question and I've searched through this forum and Tom's site, i think i read it somewhere but i forgot where and what it was.
How can I stop a query running in Sql Developer with what key combination?
Ctrl-C D E Q .........., help!
When I 'leave' for another application there a nice grey screen appearing so i can't use the buttons.
Thanks in advance and my appologies if there is an answer already and I didn't find it.

A query in the worksheet can be stopped using the Cancel button in the worksheet's toolbar (the 5th button). Hovering over it, you see the default hotkey assigned is "Ctrl-Q".
If you get a gray screen means your SQL Developer locked up. There's currently no way of canceling what is locking him up. You could kill its session, but that's pretty radical and takes its share of time fining out what to kill and how.
What another user on this forum (EricH) suggested, is running 2 SQL Developers side by side. When 1 locks up, he uses the other one. Although I'd like SQL Developer in the future to run it's queries in separate sessions by itself, thus preventing the whole program to lock up.

  • How to stop specific query attached with other query in same process using With method

    Would it be possible to stop one query out of two queries attached to single process...because i see it is returning one IDisposable inteface...if i call dispose() method...two queries are stopped/killed...
    So how to stop specific query which is combined with other queries in a  same process at runtime i.e., attach or detach kind of thing?
    Thanks in advance

    Yes, the overloading of the term "Process" can be confusing. In SI, depending on your edition of StreamInsight, a process can run on one or more threads from a pool of threads and are scheduled together. Don't think of a process necessarily as a single
    thread or multiple processes as a method of multi-threading.
    As for a limit on the number of queries, there isn't a hard limit that I'm aware of. However, there will be a practical limit that will vary based on the complexity of the query, the event rate and your hardware (# of cores). If you are using Standard Edition,
    this limit is much smaller as you only have a single scheduler thread. With Premium Edition, you have a scheduler thread for each core on the machine so you can get higher throughput and lower latency. But if you have, say, 4 cores on the machine (don't count
    hyperthreaded cores, just real cores), 100 queries and a target throughput of 100K events/second, you'll likely have some problems. At 1K events/sec, you'd likely be fine though. With 32 cores and Premium Edition, you'd probably be OK with 100K events/sec.
    So ... like I said, it depends.

  • Newbie in SQL Developer: misc questions

    Hello,
    I´m new to SQL Developer, always worked with Quest´s SQL Navigator before.
    1.)
    I have a file.sql with following instructions:
    begin
    package_1.variable_1:='T';
    package_2.procedure_1;
    package_2.procedure_2;
    package_2.procedure_3;
    end;
    In Quest SQLNavigator I started this with "Run (F9".
    In SQL Developer this will not start, always telling me error, invalid numbers or some other sh*t, but nothing changed within the packages or procedures.
    With SQLNavigator everything works fine.
    2.)
    In SQLNavigator with "Quick Browse" I get the sql for a table, for example
    select a.col1, a.col2, a.col3, ...
    from quickbrowsedtable a
    How can I get this in SQL Developer ?
    3.)
    When extracting DDL in SQL Developer columns and table names are in double quotes. Can I change
    this to have no quotes at all ?
    Thank you very much for your help,
    greets,
    Frank

    1 - use F5 in the worksheet to run your anon block
    2 - drag the table to the worksheet, and select 'Select'
    3 - not today

  • In the SQL Developer how to set Indentation in preferences?

    I am using SQL developer version 1.5.1 BuildMain 5440. In the Tools --> Preferences--> Database --> SQL Formatter --> Alignment and Indentations, I see Indentation on the right panel which shows drop down and spaces, and there is a check box option "Use tabulator". It is disabled for me. How do I make that enable? I want to use this in my formatting.

    You need to disable the first option "Right-Align Master Keywords"..

  • Newbie to SQL Developer

    I am new to the Oracle SQL Devloper world. Does anyone have any self-taught URLs or any "Tricks and Trades" URL for Oracle SQL Developer???
    One specific question I have is how do you get to the last record in a result set. I know in SQL Navigator there was an arrow with a vertical line that enabled you to get to the last record. Is there anything like that in Oracle SQL Developer???
    How do you typically set-up your connections so you don't have to drill down through "Other Users" and Select the schema name that way in order to display the tables???
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    PSULionRP

    There are links to tutorials etc., here http://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=1275
    Ctrl+End takes you to the last row in the results pane.
    The options for accessing schema objects are limited
    - connect as the schema owner,
    - use 'Other Users'
    - use synonyms.

    What does that have to do with SQL Developer?
    You can limit the rows a query returns by using ROWNUM
    SELECT * FROM myTable where rownum < 11If you just need column info you can describe the table

  • SQL Developer, how to save connections in a Citrix envrionment

    We have SQL Developer deployed in Citrix. The user creates new connections and saves them and exits the applicaiton. When they return to the applicaiton the connections are gone. How can I make these persistent? Where are these connections stored, in a file somewhere?

  • SubVersion in SQL Developer - how to link to packages and procedures

    My question is this - I am starting out using SubVersion in Oracle and it seems pretty straightforward to use as a source control for files that are stored in a Windows directory, that is the only way I have used it so far.
    Am I able to use it to control packages and procedures that I have saved as part of my database, ie the procedures are part of a package and the package appears within the Packages section of the appropriate connection in SQL Developer.
    I hope this makes sense.
    Cheers,
    JabJam

    Hi JabJam,
    So far, everyone is correct. SQL Developer just uses a file-based source control system (e.g., SVN), which means updating database object definitions via scripts under version control, or somehow exporting the new definition to a script so it can be version controlled after the fact. And wouldn't it be nice if the database objects could be version controlled directly. With the database developer having control over when any changes are committed for shared use in the database. Similar to using the SVN plug-in for an IDE like Eclipse for a given programming language in a shared development environment.
    But what would your DBA have to say about that? Don't most DBAs require scripts for deploying code or structural changes?
    In Oracle, definitions (DDL) are committed automatically. Anyone granted access sees them. Since you probably don't do development directly against a production database, eventually scripts (either manual or generated) will be needed for deployment to QA or production. Few mechanisms currently exist to work against an active database without other authorized users also seeing these changes.
    For DDL, the closest thing would be the fairly recent edition-based redefinition feature in 11g (R2, I think). For DML, the OWM (Oracle Workspace Management) feature would be loosely analogous.
    This is not a simple issue. Version control via an extension for Subversion provides essential basic support. Going beyond that might mean watching the evolution of edition-based redefinition, but DBAs would probably require scripts for that too.

  • ORACLE SQL Developer: DELETE Key Stopped Working???

    OK, I'm an idiot, I admit it. I have ORACLE SQL Developer installed, and stupidly changed some of the menu items under Tools/ Preferences/ Code Editor. Now all of a sudden, my DELETE key does not delete, although BACKSPACE works fine. Also, the prehistoric Windows shortcut CTRL + INSERT suddenly doesn't copy any more, although it worked before in the tool, and works on everything else in Windows.
    A smart person would have recorded exactly what changes they made- but I didn't.
    Any idea which Preference should be changed, and what it should be changed back to???

  • How to stop a query on a last record?

    I have a basic question. I have put a button on my form, which goes to the next_record (it goes on id-es). (on when button pressed action)
    But I have a problem, when it comes to the last_record, it goes to the nex record which is not there ( it does not exist). I would like to stop the query on my last record. How to do it?
    I had sometihng like it
    if :atletika.idRezultata is null
    last_record;
    else
    next_record;
    end if;
    but its not working.

    Hai,
    If the block's INSERT ALLOWED property is set to YES, then it will go to new record.
    Try setting this property to NO

  • SQL Developer: How do I copy data with Column Headers from the output grid?

    Hello,
    I am using Version 2.1.1.64.
    I run a SQL query, I get the results grid in the "Query Result" window down below. Say I get 10 rows returned, with 5 columns.
    I want to Copy this entire grid, plus the column headers/names, to the clipboard. So I can paste it under the original query to document the results of that query.
    I can't find any way to do this. I can copy/paste the results grid, but it doesn't copy the headers.
    The only way I see to do it is to go through numerous steps to Export to a TXT file, then paste that. Unfortunately, that is a lot of wasted steps if I need to do this over and over, plus, the output gets pasted in an ugly format with double quotes, etc.
    It seems like the simplest functionality is to copy/paste the entire results grid, and of course you might the headers. Why is this so complicated/impossible to do?
    (I believe Toad has the same problem. DBArtisan allows you to copy/paste the entire results, plus headers, though.)
    Any assistance would be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    John

    Ah, ok...
    I had tried that before, and it didn't work, it seemed to copy the path of filename I was using. But I think that was because I had clicked on a Column Header first, and it had asked me if I wanted to filter. I think then it lost track that it was in the grid. It's a little flukey.
    What I did now was to click on an individual cell in the output, then hit CTRL-A to select all, then hit SHIFT-CTRL-C. That gives me exactly what I want.
    Thanks very much for your quick solution, I appreciate it!
    John

  • How to STOP a QUERY

    Is it possible to stop/break a QUERY in Forms?

    Oliver,
    Please check the "Interaction Mode" form property.
    Prepare to wait at least 6 seconds before the "Cancel Query?" alert appears.
    And no, there is no control over that alert.
    If Interaction Mode is blocking (the default), Oracle Forms doesn't care which keys you are pressing (except for ctrl+alt+del on Windows 9*, probably).
    Hope this helps,

    I don't even know where to start
    Thanks for any direction

    Not sure I've got the columns names right from your example, but does this get you started at all?
    It sounds like you might need an analytic function like LAG or LEAD.
    with t as
    (select 123 item, 10 op, 'Warehouse' code, 'Move' dept, 'parts' description
    from dual
    union
    select 123, 20, 'Assembly', 'Finish', 'Parts'

    union
    select 123, 30, 'Inspection', 'Complete',null
    from dual)
    select *
    from (
    select item, op, code, dept, description, lag(code) over (partition by item order by op) previous_code
