Summary | 0001765: Feature request: Being able to see field type of output fields in SQL Editor | ||||
Description | I had a query (simplified): SELECT MyDate FROM MyTable UNION SELECT '01.01.2020' FROM RDB$DATABASE (the local shortdate format is dd.mm.yyyy) and noticed this query returned varying formats, e.g. 2019-02-12 01.01.2020 It was my fault and very simple to fix: SELECT MyDate FROM MyTable UNION SELECT CAST( '01.01.2020' AS DATE ) FROM RDB$DATABASE but it also made me desire to be able to see the format of output fields (so that I could have noticed that the output field was (probably) (VAR)CHAR and not DATE before executing the query). | ||||
Additional Information | Ideally, I would like to be able to see the fields as they would have been in a CREATE TABLE statement (obviously without any table name since output datasets aren't named). | ||||
