Inside the workbench right click the table in question and click  Select Rows - Limit 1000   It s the first option in the pop-up menu

After displaying the first 1000 records  you can page through them by clicking on the icon beside  Fetch rows   in the header of the result grid

Open a connection to your server first  SQL IDE  from the home screen  Then use the context menu in the schema tree to run a query that simply selects rows from the selected table  The LIMIT attached to that is to avoid reading too many rows by accident  This limit can be switched off  or adjusted  in the preferences dialog     This quick way to select rows is however not very flexible  Normally you would run a query  File   New Query Tab  in the editor with additional conditions  like a sort order

You have to open database connection  not workbench file with schema  It looks a bit wierd  but it makes sense when you realize what you are editing   So  go to home tab  double click database connection  create it if you don t have it yet  and have fun

To get the convenient list of tables on the left panel below each database you have to click the tiny icon on the top right of the left panel  At least in MySQL Workbench 6 3 CE on Win7 this worked to get the full list of tables    See my screenshot to explain   Sadly this icon not even has a mouseover title attribute  so it was a lucky guess that I found it
