Edit PL/SQL Programs

To edit PL/SQL programs in the Code Editor:

1. Select View | Connection Navigator .
2. Expand Database and select a database connection.
3. Expand the database connection and select a schema.

The Code Editor provides code insight for PL/SQL code. When you type a name followed by a '.', a dropdown menu of valid completions appears:

• Names of subprograms, if a packages name + '.' is entered.
• Names of columns, if a table name + '.' is entered.
• Names of all database objects, if another name + '.' is entered.
