Text completion SQL Anywhere 17

Hi.

Is it only me, or is the text completion in Interactive SQL for SA17 totally messed up? It behaves really weird compared to SA16, and is almost unusable now. As soon as you have multiple queries in a window it struggles big time to get the correct columns and tablenames.

[start thread drift]

My Favorite Weird Behavior is when you paste a giant block of SQL into dbisql 17 and it blasts you with BAD SYNTAX RED HIGHLIGHTING for the last dozen (or hundred) lines.

I've stopped scrolling up to look for the misteak because it's (so often) not there, and scrolling up just fixes the highlighting.

Now I don't care about dbisql's opinion on anything anymore, just dbsrv17 🙂

...don't get me wrong, I LOVE dbisql 17 because it gives me Tools - Compare Plans.
