Data detail popup not visible

[JMvD]

L.S.,

What am I doing wrong?
The data detail popup does not appear when I click the ... button next to a data field in the results of a SQL query

Kind regards,

Can you hold down the Ctrl-key when you click on the [...] button? If this works, then there is an association between the column data and an external editor that is not working.

After Ctrl-clicking on the column, can you go to the "External" tab page and check if the "Execute automatically next time" option is enabled? If it is enabled, disable it and try again.

If this does not apply, can you go to Preferences > User Interface / Options and press the "DSA Dialogs" button? Check if there is a line with Edit. or View. for the data type of the column. If such a line exists, delete the line and try again.

Hi Marco,

Thanks for your response.

Ctrl-key combined with click does not work
Shift-key combined with click does not work
Alt-key combined with click does not work

The program loses focus and the only way to get the focus back is pressing the Esc-key.

The DSA-Dialogs windows has not been altered shows the following text:
;Shows a list of dialogs that have the "Don't Show this message Again" option checked
;You can delete lines for the messages you want to enable
;No dialogs defined yet

Kind regards,

Okay. Can you start regedit.exe and go to the following section?

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

Delete the "ColumnEditorForm" key within this section and try again.

Hi Marco,

Thanks for your help. I was not able to test/change/check anything the last couple of days, but it does work right now.

I still wonder what happened because I did not change a thing.

Thanks again.

Kind regards,
