Tabular Editor 3.0.10

If you haven't used Tabular Editor 3 before, you are eligible to a 30 day trial, which can be requested after installation. You can also purchase a license.

NOTE: If you previously installed one of the BETA builds, you will have to manually uninstall that before installing this new version.

Known issues

  • Table Import Wizard didn't make it to this release due to some high-priority bugs that had to be fixed. It will be available ASAP! As a work around, simply create a new table and specify the partition query (SQL or M). Then, right-click the table and choose "Update Table Schema..." to import columns.
  • See roadmap for more information.
