Error in TOAD (ORACLE developer)

Asked By effieclyde 10 points N/A Posted on - 06/19/2012

Hi,

I am an Oracle developer and I use TOAD as its sequel developer.

Whenever I try to start TOAD, an error window pops up on the screen.

The screenshot of the error is as under:

Error

The application has encountered a problem. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Invalid data type for "DEVMGR_SHOW_DETAILS'.

To see what data the error report contains, click here.

 

What were  you doing when the problem happened (optional)?

Why am I getting this error when my application is working perfectly?

Any suggestions regarding this problem are most welcome.

Looking forward to your replies

Regards

Julie
