Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a shortcut for running a Query?
Yes.
If you press ⌘ + R it will run all the commands in the Query view.
If you press ⌘ + ⌥ + R it will run either the currently selected text as a query OR the entire query in which you are currently positioned.
How do I create an enum field in a table?
To create an enum field follow the same procedure as you would for any other field, choose enum in the Type_column of the Table Structure form, and then in the _Length column enter the enum values as comma separated quoted strings. If you wish to use a default value, you should enter it without quotes in the Default column.
Where does Sequel Ace store the connections?
The connections strings are stored in the following preference file:
~/Library/Containers/com.sequel-ace.sequel-ace/Data/Library/Application Support/Sequel Ace/Data/Favorites.plist
The passwords are stored in the Mac OSX Keychain, which is stored here:
~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain-db
The ~/Library folder is invisible in Lion, to open it choose “Go To Folder…” (⌘ + ⇧ + G) and type ~/Library/Preferences/ to open the preference folder.
