Main Workspace: Data Display

Zend Studio allows you to view data stored in a database table. The contents of the database table are displayed in table form in the Data Display area of the SQL view.

About Data Display

Studio's procedure for viewing the contents of a database table is an assisted query of the SQL database. When you select a table from the SQL tab's database tree, Studio executes an SQL query that returns the contents of the table. How much of the table data you see in the Data Display depends on the display parameters you define.
