The Edit grid has not changed. Only the query tool has this feature for
1.14.

What does the query tool tell you when you execute your query? nothing
like "Do you want to attempt to reconnect to the database?"?

Dont know what happens but it shouldn't crash.

You should probably describe your issue with more details.

leastfor the last table edited. They are not saved and so I need to start adjusting the columns over again every time
theabove scenario happens. I suppose if re-connecting from the edit tool was possible, this would be a moot point.

As already said, only the query tool (not the edit tool) has this
feature.
