Hi,
i tried to copy data from toad(editor for oracle sql) into the textpad window and could not see the colour of font copied same as in TOAD. Instead it gets copied in black color, Can you please provide me the appropriate add-ons to facilitate this?

I tried to click on configure->preferences and map it to the oracle.syn add-ons which i have , but could not find the textpad to have data maintain the font as in TOAD.


Thank you

TextPad does not have color capability other than those words defined in the syntax file. So, except for syntax definitions, any source text that has colors, multiple fonts, enhancements, etc. will only display as black and white, unenhanced, with one font.

I got the solution for this. Atleast once we need to compile the sql statement which we have stored in the current window of database, then it continues to identify the fonts in colors. please write me incase you need snapshots...TU
