Recalling bookmarks from the bookmarks list

Any created bookmarks can be found on the following pages:

  • The Table view: SQL page of any table from marc_book
  • The Query window: The SQL-History tab
  • The Database view: SQL page of the marc_book database
Recalling bookmarks from the bookmarks list

Three choices are available when recalling a bookmark— Submit, View only, and Delete. (Submit being the default).

Executing bookmarks

Choosing a bookmark and hitting Go executes the stored query and displays its results. The page resulting from a bookmark execution does not have another dialog to create a bookmark, as this would be superfluous.

Note

The results we get are not necessarily the same as when we created the bookmark. They reflect the current contents of the database. Only the query is stored as a bookmark.

Manipulating bookmarks

Sometimes, we may just want to ascertain the contents of a bookmark. This is done by choosing a bookmark and selecting View only. The query is then displayed and we have the opportunity of reworking its contents. By doing so, we would be editing a copy of the original bookmarked query. To keep this new, edited query, we can save it as a bookmark. Again, this will create another bookmark even if we choose the same bookmark label, unless we explicitly ask for the original bookmark to be replaced.

A bookmark can be erased with the Delete option. There is no confirmation dialog to confirm the deletion of the bookmark. We should now proceed with the deletion of our book bookmark.
