<p><font face="Arial" size="2">I really like the new features in the EditGrid, but I have a few feature</font><br
/><fontface="Arial" size="2">requests.  The first is just a convenience function, really.  It's a very</font><br
/><fontface="Arial" size="2">common idiom on Win32 to click a column header and get a sort on</font><br /><font
face="Arial"size="2">that column.  Similar functionality would be nice in pgAdmin.  I realize</font><br /><font
face="Arial"size="2">that it's not as powerful as the multi-column select that is available,</font><br /><font
face="Arial"size="2">but it would be a nice complement to it.  The other feature is much</font><br /><font face="Arial"
size="2">moreimportant to me.  I often want to view records in very large</font><br /><font face="Arial"
size="2">tables,but I don't want to wait a long time for the entire table to</font><br /><font face="Arial"
size="2">load. I usually don't want to see the entire table anyway.  What </font><br /><font face="Arial"
size="2">wouldbe nice is if the EditGrid could detect that a table will show</font><br /><font face="Arial"
size="2">morethan 1000 rows, and automatically set a filter that shows the</font><br /><font face="Arial"
size="2">first1000 rows.  Then, if you really want to see the whole table, you</font><br /><font face="Arial"
size="2">couldgo and erase the filter.  This way, I can look at a large table in</font><br /><font face="Arial"
size="2">areasonable amount of time without loading every record.</font><p><font face="Arial" size="2">The main reason
Ilike to use the EditGrid to view data is because it</font><br /><font face="Arial" size="2">shows empty strings as '',
whilethe SQL viewer does not.  With the</font><br /><font face="Arial" size="2">SQL viewer I cannot see if a blank
fieldis null or empty.  So alternatively,</font><br /><font face="Arial" size="2">if the SQL viewer displayed empty
stringsas '', that would work for me.</font><p><font face="Courier New" size="2">__</font><br /><font face="Courier
