You can also load a query from the SQL Editor into the Query Builder, as described in detail below. The first three buttons automatically change the display to the SQL Editor. The sixth button is a drop-down menu for selecting what to show below the diagram area: query details or the SQL preview.The fifth button opens a dialog that lets you add tables matching a search criteria,.The fourth button copies the query to the system clipboard,.The third button adds the query last in the SQL Editor,.The second button replaces the content of the SQL Editor with the query SQL, without executing it,.The first button (from left) replaces the content of the SQL Editor with the query SQL and executes it,.To copy the current query from the Query Builder to the SQL Editor, use the toolbar buttons at the top of the Query Builder: Clicking these buttons changes the display, but does not copy the query from one display to the other. The easiest way to jump between the Query Builder and the SQL Editor is by clicking the vertical control buttons to the right in the SQL Commander.
