Default objects filter (ignore jobs, constraints, triggers, and other...but include tables, sprocs, views, functions). EVERY time I start search I have to turn off the objects I don't want (and RARELY want).

Add a way to stop automatically searching when I open SQL Search
It remembers the last search term, but not which databases I limited to the last time I searched. So everytime I open it, it tries to search multiple databases that I don't have permissions to. At least once a week I get asked by the DBA's what on earth I am doing.

Find with spaces
Currently if I search for x y (x,space,y), it will return all instances of x or y.
If I make it "x y" it finds nothing. There are many times when I want to find the coexistence of two very common terms, so having the latter search (or a variation) return results would be helpful.15 votes -
Copy colums from the search grid
it would be very helpful to be able to copy and paste a list of objects from the search grid rather than the whole line.

Search to include schema names
It would be very beneficial if I could search for objects with a certain schema across the databases I choose. I.e. SQL Search trigger on letter-sequences in schema names, just as in table or column names.
As it is, I can only find those objects if they are referenced elsewhere with their schema given (e.g. a stored procedure or a view will give me a hint that a schema exists in a database in a galaxy, far, far away).

Allow Multiple Word Search
We have over 200 tables and over 1000 stored procedures. I often need to search on two words. The current "Match whole words only" literally searches for "this word", but I often need it to search for all objects that have exactly "this" and "word". When I search try without the "Match whole words only", I end up with a LOT of results that have words that are similar to "this" and "word", but aren't an exact match.
I've also tinkered with the wildcards, but that only seems to apply to on character at a time. Maybe I'm doing something…10 votes -
Add Hotkeys to SQL Search
I would like to be able to activate SQL Search from the keyboard instead of clicking the icon on the toolbar. In addition, I would like to have keystrokes to toggle some options like whether it Matches on Name, Text, or Column.
When I'm searching for objects with names containing "xyz" I'd like to do it quickly from the keyboard without having to navigate with my mouse.
This should be an easy request to fulfill and will give you points in the Accessibility category.

Show results for user-defined types

When searching for a string, include a count of instances within each object within search results
When using SQL Search to find a column name within objects, it would be extremely helpful to have an additional column that totals the number of instances of that search string within the search results. Clicking on a row in the search results shows the first instance of the string within the object but if it's a stored procedure, function, trigger, table, or query it's helpful to be able to see the total number of instances of that string within the object.
Also in the object definition window, it would be really nice to be able to click a button…
