or press F5.

or press F9.

To execute the code within a code Region
- To execute a single code region, right-click within the region and select Select Current Region. Then press F5. See Set Code Regions for more information about Regions.
Retrieving Data
After retrieving 2500 rows, Toad saves data to disk by creating a TMP (.tmp) file. This allows Toad to retrieve as many rows as your disk's free space can accommodate. These TMP files are deleted when Toad closes.
When executing a query, if there is not sufficient free space, Toad displays an informative message and terminates execution.
Tips:
- You can execute SQL against multiple connections simultaneously. See Group Execution of Scripts for more information.
- You can view the progress of statements executing in the background in a progress bar located in the status bar. Click the progress bar to open the Background Processes window to cancel execution. See Stop Background Processes for more information.
