Answer 1

TOAD FOR ORACLE

SHIFT+CTRL+F should help you

To format a statement Select the statement you want to select and click » on the Edit toolbar.

To format an entire script Click » on the Edit toolbar.

Tip:You can also right-click the script and select Formatting Tools | Format Code.

See the documentation

TOAD FOR MYSQL

Use the formatter to modify the layout of SQL in the Editor, including inserting headers, adding or removing extra lines, and changing the case for keywords.

To format SQL

Click Paint shaped box on the Editor toolbar to format the contents of the Editor window. You can also format a partial statement in the Editor by selecting it before applying formatting.

See documentation

Answer 2

Just to add, in Toad 5 for SQLServer, the button to format code is "2 yellow triangles pointing right". In my fresh installation, this button is on the toolbar, beside the dropdown box to select the db environment.

If you want to assign a shortcut, find it at Tools | Options | Environment | Keyboard | Editor | Tools | FormatCode.

Hope it helps, it took very long to find these buttons. Wish they'd make the controls the same as Toad for Oracle..

Answer 3

You can format from the menu bar: Editor > Format Code > choose the exact format from the format list.
In case anyone's interested, for toad 8 for MySQL, there is an OOTB hot-key. Simply select the code you want to format, and press Alt+Ctrl+F.
