Teradata Tools and Utilities

The Table Data Editor enables you to work directly with data stored in tables in a Teradata Database or Teradata Aster Database. The editor interface is a table grid of columns and rows that displays the corresponding data columns and rows of the selected database table.

You can right-click rows and columns to view the actions you can perform on data. You can resize column and row widths by dragging line separators for column and row headers.

Toolbar

Use the toolbar to page to specific rows and to set the number of rows per page. You can also use the toolbar to save, filter and sort, revert, export, and refresh data.

Table Data Grid

The Table Data Editor displays a grid of columns and rows. The grid rows and columns correspond to the rows and columns in the table you selected from the Data Source Explorer tree. If the table you selected contains a large number of rows, the editor automatically creates data pages which you can size using the Page Size field in the toolbar. The default is 1000 rows per page.
