[Quoted] Hi All
[Quoted] I've waited as long as possible to post here because I figured I must be missing something, however after reading the documentation, searching the archives of this list and searching online I've come to the conclusion that SQL plus is too arcane for my use.
The problem
[Quoted] Im running personal Oracle 8.05 which apparently dosnt have sql
worksheet which Im accustomed to.
I don't like the fact that the past commands are not saved in a buffer
no use of the left arrow to modify a previous statement
[Quoted] [Quoted] I think its insane to have to retype a command I previously typed while
in a session. Or have to copy and paste
The "tools" on the toolbar seem useless. I even find the documentation
for sql + insane.
[Quoted] [Quoted] "the semi colon is optional..." Well its either a semi colon or type
run after issuing the statement!
Im used to sql worksheet where I can execute the statement by pressing
ctrl+l
Im looking for an simple editor/worksheet that will do the above. Is that too much to ask? Is there such a program?
Thanks for any pointers
