Toad: Count characters in SQL statement
Toad for Oracle 12:
I'm working in a system that has an unfortunate limitation where an SQL query's FROM clause can only have up to 1000 characters (including spaces). This becomes a problem when the FROM clause has a lengthy subquery in it (> 1000 chars).
So, when writing SQL in Toad, I need a way to highlight the SQL in the FROM clause and count the characters in the highlighted text, including spaces.
Currently, I copy the text into MS Word and do a character count there. That works, but it would be better if I could do the character count right in Toad.
Question:
Does Toad 12 have SQL character count functionality?
Solution
As @SamM mentioned, the bottom panel/status bar shows the character count when I highlight text in the SQL editor window:
