Clicking on "..." button in data grid for columns freeze Develoepr

Hello,
In a sql window I click on the button with the icon that looks like "...". The column value is a . The tool then freezes.

I thought last past, you may have told me to clear some registry settings related to PL/SQL Developer and it fixed the issue. I cannot locate those notes or search in this forum. Could you provide or some new advice? thanks.

Support Info:

You can try to clear this section:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Allround Automations\PL/SQL Developer\Position\ColumnEditorForm

Hello Marco,
Thank you for your quick response. My response on the other hand has been slow. I cleared all the registery settings as you presented (I cleared the values but did not delete).

This worked in the sense that it no longer freezes the tool. What the behavior is now is that a new window attempts to open titled "Large Data Editor - ..... (readonly)" and that new window is frozen. I can then close that window and get back to work in Developer. This is good since the tool as a whole no longer freezes.

Any other advice would be great.
Thank you
Frank

If you want to edit the data, you must have an updateable result set by including the rowid. The easiest method is to right-click on the table and select "Edit Data".
