Hi,
it took me quite a while to find out that DTP is actually useable for
me, but only after reading this newsgroup and fiddling considerably.
I'd have two remarks for the moment:
- Creating an "SQL scrapbook" should be accessible from the "File"
/ "New..." menu, just as is "SQL file" at the moment
- Creating an "SQL scrapbook" should be accessible from the context
menu of a database, auto-connecting it if chosen
- Why is there a differentiation between "Max row count" and "Max
display row count", i.e. why should "Max row count" be retrieved if
only "Max display row count" rows are shown? When I started off with
the defaults, I issued a query against a large table which never seemed
to return, since all rows were fetched. That made me think yesterday
that DTP is totally unusable. At least the defaults should be
reasonable here, e.g. 50 and 50.
These issues currently make it hard for anybody unfamiliar with DTP to
get going quickly and having a good impression while doing so...
Thanks in advance in case these issues would be looked at :-)
Regards,
Jörg
