EDDIE JONES does not fear the sack — even if England are whitewashed by South Africa.


The RFU hierarchy rejected a chance to publicly back the Red Rose boss after the team went 2-0 down in this three-match series and slipped to No 6 in the world rankings.

Losing six in a row is the worst run since Andy Robinson’s England crashed to seven defeats in 2006 — costing him his job.


Ahead of the Cape Town Test, defiant Jones said: “I don’t need to worry about my job. All I need to worry about is coaching better.



“I woke up, looked at Table Mountain and thought, ‘It’s a nice place — particularly when you’re on top, not so much when you’re looking from the bottom’. So we need to get back on top.”


Jones feels he is still the right man to take England forward to next year’s World Cup in Japan.

And Twickenham chiefs will most likely give him until the autumn to turn it around.


But it gets no easier — with games against the Springboks, New Zealand, Japan and Australia to come in November.

Today’s clash has an added emotional element as it is set to be the final Test held at the 52,000-seater Newlands Stadium.


The ground has been home to the Western Province Rugby Union since 1888, but Cape Town Stadium — built for the 2010 football World Cup — is expected to be the Springboks’ new HQ.


Newlands is also the home of Super Rugby side Stormers — who Aussie Jones managed for EIGHT DAYS before England came calling.



He added: “It’s one of the great rugby grounds in the world.


“To have the privilege — if it’s true — to play the last Test there is something we’re all honoured to be part of.”

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV Normally I use Dbeaver for windows and always export my result set like this: run my query --> select the result --> export the result set --> select export to clipboard --> done This step by step puts my result set in my clipboard and I can paste it wherever I want to work with it.

I can go on until the moment that I select my result set like in the image below: exporting data set But once I go further in the process, in the last step I get: no query Note that in "source" it was suppose to show the query that originated the result set, but instead it says just "select.

Normally my query would show up there automatically and I couldn't find any option that corrects this problem in the menus. Please help me! Thanks. Aft...
