Toad Data Studio 1.1 - Release Notes

Export Data with One Click Export

Use One Click Export to quickly export data to an Excel report. You can also export data and include a linked query in the file. A linked query lets you create a "live" Excel report that can be refreshed dynamically. Because a linked query contains the underlying SQL for a report, each time you refresh the report the query executes and retrieves the latest data. The dynamic nature of linked query reports makes them ideal for distribution to users who need to see changes to data on demand without waiting for new static reports to be distributed.

Notes:

  • Before you can export to Excel, the Primary Interop Assemblies (PIAs) for your version of Excel must be installed. Typically, the PIAs are installed automatically when you install Microsoft Office.

  • Use the Export wizard if you need to specify column delimiters and advanced field options when exporting data. Export Data with the Export Wizard
