    @NYBL You mean by SQL?
    I can't because the database is big and keep sensitive data.
    I make this code for an app for QGIS plug-in, in which every question is make after choosing current option in ComboBox

    You should not be using QStandard... for records from a SQL database. You should use either QSqlTableModel or QSqlQueryModel for the database query and a QTableView with that as a model. Then it should display your received rows/columns. You will not need to use insertColumn() or appendRow() either. the query should fill the model and the view should display what is in the model.

      I'm trying by using your option:

       global model
              q= QSqlQueryModel()
              model = QTableView()
              res=QStandardItem()
              if con == Zest[0]:
                 sql2 = "SELECT * FROM ZARZADZANIE.ZAMOWIENIA_WG_STATUS_V"#zapytanie nie działa :-(
                 query.exec_(sql2)
                 a=q.setQuery(sql2)
                 self.dlg.tableView_5.setModel(a)
                 while query.next():
                     a=res.setQuery(q)
                     b=res.insertColumns(a)
                     model.appendRow(b)
                 self.dlg.tableView_5.show()
              if con == Zest[1]:       
                  plan22 = "SELECT * FROM ZARZADZANIE.ZAMOWIENIA where ROK_PLANOWANIA=2022"
                  query.exec_(plan22)
                  a=q.setQuery(plan22)
                  self.dlg.tableView_5.setModel(a)
                              print (a)
                              while query.next():
                                  a=model.setQuery(q)
                                  b=res.insertColumns(a)
                                  model.appendRow(b)
                              self.dlg.tableView_5.show()
      

      but nothing appears in Table View. Sth should I make wrong?

        @Karoluss96 You should put more context - where is this code actually located? I guess some method?
        The problem is probably that you are creating local variables which are destroyed as soon as they go out of scope.

          It's a part of function to put data from selected sql in combobox to table View.

          Begins of it looks that:

           def zestawienia (self): #obsługa zakładki zestawień
                  con= self.dlg.comboBox_6.currentText()
                  global model
                  q= QSqlQueryModel()
                  model = QTableView()
                  res=QStandardItem()
                  if con == Zest[0]:
          ...
          

          It vision is easy- from combo box show SQL's anwser in TableView below

              You mean by put some variables in definition of function - next to (self) in brackets?
              Or put eg. ..setquery and insertColumns at the beginning before if loop?

                @Karoluss96 For example:

                self.model = QTableView()

                          You need to understand about things like variable scopes as a part of Python not Qt. Just saying.

                          I see you still have a QStandardItem. I cannot imagine why. As I said, you simply fill your model from SQL and attach a QTableView to it, that's it.

                          And please do not name as model something which is a QTableView, it's incredibly confusing.

                            I changed assigning QTableView from model to table.
                            Then I put it into

                            self.dlg.tableView_5.setModel(table)

                              but it makes an error

                              Would be nice if you would tell us what error it is...

                                  @Karoluss96 The error is quite clear: you can't set QTableView (which is a view) as model...
                                  What @JonB suggested is to use https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qsqltablemodel.html or https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qsqlquerymodel.html as model to get data from your SQL database and set that model in self.dlg.tableView_5

                                    OK, now I have at beginning:

                                    q= QSqlQueryModel()
                                      table = QSqlTableModel()

                                      Why do you have both a QSqlQueryModel and a QSqlTableModel? Why two models?

                                      And you are assigning each of these to a function-local variable now. You will not be able to access these outside of this function, and they may be destroyed when they go out of scope.

                                        Both I catch in one funtion, so I needn't put them global.
                                        Now I have that:

                                         q= QSqlQueryModel()
                                                table = QSqlTableModel()
                                                self.dlg.tableView_3.show()
                                                if con == Zest[0]:
                                                   sql2 = "SELECT * FROM ZARZADZANIE.ZAMOWIENIA_WG_STATUS_V"
                                                   q=query.exec_(sql2)
                                                   a=table.setQuery(q)
                                                   self.dlg.tableView_5.setModel(a)  
                                                   print (a)
                                        

                                        with an error: TypeError: setQuery(self, QSqlQuery): argument 1 has unexpected type 'bool'

                                          @Karoluss96 said in Put data in TableView after SQl query:

                                          q= QSqlQueryModel()
                                          table = QSqlTableModel()

                                          I'm wondering how often we need to write that you are creating local variables which are destroyed as soon as the method finishes?

                                          And did you actually read what @JonB wrote? Again: why do you have QSqlQueryModel AND QSqlTableModel?

                                          Why are you overwriting q here:

                                          q=query.exec_(sql2)
                                          

                                          ?
                                          You should really think more about what you are doing...
