Shortcut Key to Execute Query 1

[StumblingThrough]

Does anyone know if a keyboard shortcut exists to execute a query?

You can press "ENTER" to run the query if it's highlighted.

Or you can set up a Macro and have that execute the query, and you can press "ENTER" to run the macro if it's highlighted.


I can't imagine what application you'd have for this. So please do tell so we can help you do ... whatever it is you're trying to do.

Pete,

An associate here was asking the question. He doesn't do a lot of developing, but does run stand-alone queries quite often. He is just wanting a way to execute a query using the keyboard without having to deal with the mouse. Thanks.

If he runs a bunch of queries at one time, he can string them together in a macro. Then he can just run the macro and it will run all the queries at once.

I bet that's what he's looking for in the first place, but I can't be certain.
