No code completion in comments
I'd like Toad not to try completing my words when I'm writing comments. This feature is called code completion, not comment completion :-)

4 commentsWhen clicking at a column header, please sort the results within memory and do not fire the query again just with an order by clause appended. Even if the query is fast and takes only a few seconds, one has to wait and it's unnecessary load if you are on a production database.

4 commentsAllow us to save our workspace, and have the workspace opened again. Specifically:-
1. By workspace I mean all database connections that are open, the schema and editor windows opened against those connections. And within those editor windows the files that are open in each tab, with the cursor at the position it was at workspace save. Additionally if a project file is open at the time of workspace saving, associate that project file with the workspace.
2. Workspace would be saved to a workspace settings file saving all the previous information. This information is saved periodically, and the frequency of that save can be configured in the options. Additionally, the workspace is saved on TOAD exit.
3. Multiple workspace files can exist - perhaps we have multiple projects we're working on.
4. User can choose to open a workspace, and TOAD will open all connections, windows and files as stored in the workspace file.
5. User can configure a specific workspace to open when TOAD opens if they so desire. Additionally, user can configure TOAD to open with the saved workspace that was open when TOAD was last shut down.

Add your commentThe rules in CX are hard coded with no way to change them.
Example:
‘6802 Avoid coding program units too long' is defined as 60 lines of code. If the number could be configured, it would provide much greater value.

1 commentIn the pl/sql editor window when you fold code just the key word remains in pale grey. I think this would be more useful if the whole first line was retained so that it is easier to identify what code has been folded.
For example instead of:
CURSOR...
You would see:
CURSOR c_get_acc_dets IS...
Still in pale grey so it's still obvious that it has been folded.
Also although select, delete and inserts statements can be folded update statements can't. Please can this be included.

1 commentOur company leases our workstations. When the leases are up we need to return the old workstations and install our software on the new ones. It would be greatly appreciated if you create a feature to export the connection settings and passwords (for backup) and be able to import the settings on a different computer.

1 commentI'd like to have a button "Compile invalid objects" in one of the toolbars which opens a new child window containing a list of all invalid objects and a button to compile all these objects (and a refresh button). Again a feature from PL/SQL Developer.
Screenshot: http://www.allroundautomations.com/plscompinv.html
This is very useful for us because we're applying many changes in our prod database (even during business hours) and use this for testing if compiling a package invalidates other objects. In Toad we have to 1. open schema browser and 2. opening the invalid objects and 3. for refreshing we have to press F5 and then 4. we have to re-open the tree again.
Maybe anybody knows how to do this more elegant.

Add your commentWhen running a script with F5 AND that script runs in its own session as per the "execute scripts in Toad session" option (unchecked), then we really need the following:
1. A ROLLBACK when the user chooses to CANCEL after an error;
2. The session to prompt for a COMMIT or ROLLBACK if one is not the last (DML) command executed.
This prevents enqueue hangs if a script is cancelled and then re-run (option 1) and allows all DML executed in a script session to be fully committed or fully rolled back.
Cheers,
Norm. [TeamT]

Add your commentToad checks for updates every time you launch the program. If you are having network difficulties, this can greatly slow down the program. There is a startup option to turn off the check, but if you do so, Toad will never check unless you turn the option on again.
I would like to see frequency options added: At startup (what Toad does now); daily; weekly; monthly, never.
