"edit -> Find" And "edit -> Replace" Always

[peterlaursen]

'find' and 'replace' are text editor functions. Cursor must be placed in the SQL-editor area / a Query tab (up-right).

Now if you click once in the editor and expand the 'edit' menu are they still disabled?

To search and replace in the DATA, you will need to exectue a

“SELECT .. FROM WHERE …” and then edit data in the RESULT tab

.. but we do plan some 'filtering' option similar to Office-type programs.

Thanks for the reply

While the function “works” it's not quite what I was hoping. I'm looking for a quick way to change text in various records.

I cannot help it …

the 'filtering' option is pretty high priority, however.

We will probably release next version on Saturday, and soon after that update this FAQ:

http://webyog.com/faq/33_20_en.html

.. with more accurate priorities.

The phrase here “There are plans for a GUI SQL-builder as you find it in Office Suite -type databases” also covers such filtering option.

The priorities as of now are like:

1) User management complete as of MySQL 5.1 and the remaining 'small isuues' that we allready announced in the 5.1 tree + a few pending bug-fixes and optimizations. Should be around 1 week now.

2) Full Unicode compliance. Add 2-3 weeks. But this has some 'uncertanity' built in.

3) GUI-related: Filtering, GUI SQL-builder, better Spreadsheet interoperability. This will be done in parallel with extracting strings from the code itself to enable localisations. Plus better support for BINARY data (BIT, BINARY, VARBINARY and (non-image)BLOB types.

4) Events and Partitions support (actually Events may come before, as it is quite simple to implement)

But at this very moment I cannot be exact on the 'timing' of issues in category 3)

We will do detailed 'man-power' planning next week and publish details.
