Hi all,
in TOAD there is a useful feature to select text in column (block) mode. If you use (left)shift+alt and the arrow keys you can do so.
Due to problems with my elbow I had to change my mousearm recently to left and got a bit slow with the keyboard for that reason.
When you type not fast enough with shift+alt and arrows your keyboard layout will change to your other languages, in my case to english or japanese. All my beloved umlauts and even the german sharp s are gone!
The reason is, as I had to learn, a windows shortcut [left-shift]+[alt] to change the keyboard layout.
Workaround is to type this keys again in a roundabout manner until your original language is restored or to close the TOAD application and reopen it.
Just my 2 euro-cents for this TOAD knowledge base.
best regards
Hans Hauer,
