Not having that problem here. There are some settings for this feature
that may have been lost if you did a clean install. I merely updated and
didn't lose anything: right-click on the output and "Save results" is open
for business.

One of the best features of the built-in SQL editor in the old RDi... was
the ability to easily export results to Excel. iACS doesn't seem to do this.

Well yes - I use the iACS run sql script feature.

Essentially because it’s quite good, has a big library of snippets and can
also run CL commands.

With 1.1.9.2 it even can prompt for “host variables” in the statement like

where table.col = :myVar

OK - this is old for DBeaver, but new to iACS.

For me, RDi was my SQL tool of choice. I had several large "scratch
pads" of SQL code that I regularly referred to and executed directly from
RDi. One could set the file association for .sql files to be one of three
built-in SQL tools. These all seem to be gone.

I am guessing that this was not the SQL tool of choice for many, or else
they would not have removed the feature. What should I be using instead...
Access Client Solutions?
