Description chwhit 2006-05-24 11:17:04 UTC 
Up to NB 4.1, there was a feature in the SQL Command tab in RunTime/Databases
which allowed previously issued SQL commands to be selected from a Dropdown
List. This extremely useful feature was removed from NB versions 5.0 without
warning. Could it be reinstated?

Comment 2 Andrei Badea 2006-05-24 12:54:40 UTC 
Thank you for filing it. Marking as enhancement.

As explained a few time ago on nbusers the history was removed because it didn't
work well with the new SQL editor, which was supposed to be able to execute SQL
scripts. Unfortunately there was not time for the script execution in 5.0, but
it was added in 5.5. Now we have to devise a way for the history to work with
the current SQL editor, which can execute the whole file, the selection or the
statement under the caret.

Most likely it won't be possible to bring the history back in 5.5 because it is
feature-frozen, so this is for 6.0.

Fixed with the SQL History feature in 6.5.
