AutoSelect and tabbed result sets

[Jim Cain]

Before version 7, AutoSelect worked by highlighting and executing the statement surrounding the cursor so you don't have to select it yoursef. Now with tabbed result sets, when I do this in a window with multiple statements, it tries to run them all at once.

Is there a preference setting that will turn off the tabbed result sets so that I can avoid manually highlighting a statement, but still only execute one statement at a time? It seems the AutoSelect has now been overridden by the new feature.

It is indeed one or the other right now, though you can always explicitly select a statement or staments to execute.

We are considering an option to allow an explicit "Execute current statement" function instead of the preference.

An "execute current statement" function would be ideal. That way you can do either, depending on the nature of the SQL script you have open. As it is now, I would rather downgrade to version 6 because selecting the statement each time is an irritation.
