I have used the preferences dialog to associate various file extensions with PLSQL Developer. When I double-click a file, or open it from Visual Source Safe it always opens a new instance of Developer. I didn't have this problem with XP, but with Vista I can't find a way of fixing this. Have...

Can we please have a popup date picker for variables? This would be especially useful in PL/SQL Developer reports. eg ... & ... would allow me to select from a calendar when running the report. Thanks, John

in-line case statements still don't appear to be working. This is produced: myfunction(parm => case code2 when '5' then '1' when '6' then '2' else '3' end); where I would expect to see something like: myfunction(parm => case code2 when '5' then '1'...

I had the same problem with starting on the second monitor. As a quick fix I edited this registry setting: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Allround Automations\PL/SQL Developer\Position\Monitor and set it to 1. It looks like Developer doesn't save this correctly, although it seems to read it. (I'm...

Thanks!

I am running a multi-monitor setup and run the main MDI on monitor 1. Monitor 2 is to the left of monitor 1. I have dragged the floating browser onto monitor 2 to give me more space in the main MDI. When I open a new window from the browser, it effectively puts the new window under the browser...

I would like to add to this.. .. it appears that I have lost local automatic bookmarks completely. For instance, if I jump to another part of code by clicking on the subroutine name in the code contents window and then use I always end up in the previous program window.

I think the multiple SQL statements feature is great. Can I suggest an enhancement that would enable me to use it? I like to execute several SQL queries and build up results that I can refer back to. I currently run multiple windows to keep the results and have to flick between windows. It...

Thanks for your quick response. Whilst I'm at it, I would like to be able to navigate to the "contents" tree in the editor and use that in a similar way to the browser (including key commands). Please could you add this to the enhancement requests as well. Thanks.

I would like to set some key configurations but can't find them: 1. Move focus to the browser and back again. (The Tools / Browser option just turns the browser on and off.) 2. The "Back" and "Forward" buttons in the editor. Are these available? Thanks, John

I have a program that loops through most of the user objects in the database and performs functions on them. It is a standard database package that reports using dbms_output. I start the program using the debugger. It runs then crashes with a ORA-06502 error (numeric or value error) after...

I went back to have a look at this problem and found that the help for "save layout" says that this menu option also saves the size of the currently open windows. I decided to try this to fix one of the problems above. I opened each type of window and then did a "save layout". I have found...

I run version 5.1.4 and use it across two monitors. When I request a new child window it is always far too big, stretching across both monitors, and is usually not visible. I have to scroll the whole viewport to the right, leaving all open windows behind, then pick up the new window and move...
