Create and run queries

Open a new SQL script to write your queries in.

When running queries it is important to remember few things:

1. Orange triangle will only run the selected query.
2. Little document with triangle will run the entire script file.
3. Query is selected when it is manually selected or the cursor is standing on the query.
4. Always remember to end queries with semi-colon: ;! Otherwise the edit does not know when query ends!

Errors will be marked

In case of errors, DBMS will mark them red. If you hover on the error, DBMS will tell you the exact issue with your query!

Saving queries for homework

When done with queries, save them to your homework repo using this "Save As" like from any other software. Remember the .sql extention!
