  3. Once the query is executed, you will see the results displayed in the “Result Grid” tab.
  4. To clear the output, click on the “Clear Results” button located at the top right corner of the “Result Grid” tab. It looks like a small broom icon.
  5. The output will be cleared, and you can execute new queries or perform other operations.

Example:

Let’s say we have executed a query to select all the records from a table named “customers” as follows:

        SELECT * FROM customers;

The query results will be displayed in the “Result Grid” tab. To clear the output, you can either click the “Clear Results” button or use the keyboard shortcut CTRL+ALT+P. Once cleared, you can proceed with executing a new query or performing other tasks in MySQL Workbench.
