Answer 1

Workbench doesn't automatically refresh table data on INSERT or UPDATE etc, so assuming you're viewing the table in question you should have a 'Navigator' pane open to the left.

If you expand the database you're working on, and find the relevant table there should be a few icons to the right of the table name. Click on the table symbol with the lightning bolt to execute a SELECT * on the table.

Referring to the image below it is the 'Select' button.
