The SQL Formatter checks the syntax of the SQL statement. The SQL statement is formatted only if the syntax is correct. The right pane [Formatted SQL] of the SQL Formatter window shows the formatted SQL statement. If the SQL statement has an invalid object, that object is highlighted in maroon (default color).
If you open the SQL Formatter with the SQL Optimizer as the active window, the SQL statement from the SQL Optimizer window is automatically copied to the SQL Formatter window. Otherwise, enter a SQL statement into the left pane of the SQL Formatter window.

SQL statements can have parameters either prefixed with a "@" sign or without the "@". If parameters are recognized, they are highlighted in red (default color) after executing the Format function.
Note: If table names are in maroon (default color) it indicates that the table and corresponding columns are not recognized. Check that:
The login user has sufficient privilege to access the table.
