How to change query type for drag and drop action in SQLDeveloper


In SQLDeveloper there is a feature which generates query when you drag and drop table from connection browser to worksheet. There is a window which asks if one want select, update or delete query to be generated. I've marked once select and checked the box to not ask again. Now when I drag and drop I got always select without pop-up window.

How can I change query that is generated (I need insert not select) without reinstalling SQLDeveloper?


Solution

  • Go into the preferences. Database page. Then on 'Drag and Drop.'

    Set it back to Prompt or pick your new poison.
