And pretty much a nessecity when doing this stuff. GUI's are limited and this allows you to do everything, even if it isn't totally GUI'd. I have see some pretty comprehensive wizards (not that I personally like wizards) for creating SQL statements. Borland Interbase has a fairly similar device to create, prepare and process statements. And you can display results of the queries in a similar fashion to what you are describing in Interbase 5. Shame the rest of the db isnot that good :-) Rich -----Original Message----- From: Adam Hooper [mailto:adamh@stripped] Sent: 14 February 2002 16:49 To: mycc@stripped Subject: Feature request: Command-line tool integration I don't know how many people would benefit from this [rather complex] feature, but I know *I* would: I think it'd be really cool to get two windows open in a few clicks -- one a "results" window (a grid like what you get when you double-click on a table in the MyCC table list), and the other a clone of the MySQL command-line tool. You'd type any queries into the command-line tool (syntax highlighting would be cool but by no means necessary...) and when you'd end your query with a semicolon and hit Enter the results would appear in the results window. This would be awesome for doing stuff like ALTER TABLE ; DESCRIBE
; INSERT INTO
; SELECT * FROM
; etc and getting results really quickly and in an easy-to-read view (I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets confused when the command-line tool word-wraps). It'd be great for lower-level freaks like me :) As a more realistic feature request, simply having the command-line tool a click away and integrated would be a great feature.
