The Results tab of the Options dialog in Interactive SQL has the following components:
Display null values as Specify how you want nulls to display in table columns. You can use any string for this value. The default value is (NULL). If this field is blank, null values appear as an empty string.
For more information, see NULLS option [DBISQL] in Chapter 2, “Database Options” in Sybase IQ Reference Manual.
Maximum number of rows to display Specify the maximum number of rows that appear in the Results pane. The default is 500.
Truncation length Specify the number of characters that are displayed in each column in the Results pane. If you enter a value of 0, the columns are not truncated. The default is 256.
For more information, see TRUNCATION_LENGTH option [DBISQL] in Chapter 2, “Database Options.”
Show multiple result sets Select this option if you want Interactive SQL to display multiple result sets in the Results pane when you execute a procedure that returns multiple SELECT statements. Each result set appears on a separate tab in the Results pane. By default, Interactive SQL does not display multiple result sets.
If you use the jConnect driver and select the Show Multiple Result Sets option, Interactive SQL must wait until the entire result set is retrieved before any rows appear in the Results pane. This can result in slower processing of large result sets.
Select this option if you want row numbers to appear beside your results in the Results pane. This option is on by default.
Automatically refetch results Select this option if you want Interactive SQL to automatically regenerate the result set after you execute an INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE statement. By default, Interactive SQL refetches result sets.
For more information, see the AUTO_REFETCH option in Chapter 2, “Database Options” in the Sybase IQ Reference Manual.
Which font do you want to use to show table data? Select one of the following options to specify the font that is used for table data in the Interactive SQL Results pane.
System Select this option to use the machine's normal text font. This is the default setting.
Editor Select this option to use the same font as the Code Editor.
For more information about the Code Editor, see “Format tab”.
