compression
When applying data compression differences (table or index), use rebuild partition or rebuild index rather than drop & create, both to minimize impact, and in the case of primary keys on replicated tables, avoid failure because replicated tables can't be dropped.
e.g.,
ALTER TABLE schema.TableName REBUILD PARTITION = ALL WITH (DATACOMPRESSION = PAGE);
ALTER INDEX [IndexName] ON schema.TableName REBUILD PARTITION = ALL WITH (DATACOMPRESSION=PAGE);1 vote -

Include a description of the active filter settings used for the comparison in the report output
When generating a comparison to validate/review a deployment, you may use a fairly complex filter to identify the objects to deploy.
If you generate a report to send/configure to a third party, the filter settings you used to generate the comparison are not shown/output (looking at the Active HTML output specifically, but may be true across other formats).
The criteria used for the comparison are integral to the information being generated and should therefore be represented.

Fix the installer. Could not install SQL Tool belt trial as Redgate Client service could not be stopped.
I tried to install the SQL Tool belt trial numerous times but was blocked each time saying the Redgate Client service could not be stopped. I tried to stop it manually but that did not work. I called support but they just sent an email telling me to stop the service. What part of "I can't stop the service" did they not understand?

Report preferences should be stored in the project
It would be helpful if the definition for SQL Compare reports were stored in the individual projects and not as an application preference. I have 5 different databases and use the report on differences for all 5. I always have to switch the path for the reports. This change would solve that issue.

pin "object definition box"
Allow for pinning of the Object Definition Box so that it is always visible.
It would be nice if you could make the ODB (that's what I'm calling it from now on) could be pinned or made to float so that I could reference it as i type.
The object explorer does provide the same functionality... technically but its nice have the "source" immediately visible as opposed to the multiple folders in the Object Explorer.

Post script bit value column auto-update
Add an option that will run post-script to set newly added columns that are of a bit value type and that are scripted with a default value to that value after the addition of a bit column.

Source and Target script folder source should stay with their currently selected path instead of switching to the last used on either side.
This was the behavior in previous versions (at least it was for SQL Compare 10) and not sure when it was changed. But constantly switching folder paths make it error-prone and annoying. As an example, let's say I first chose Folder A/Folder B as Source and then Folder C/Folder D as Target. If I go back to source to pick another folder, now it points me to Folder C/Folder D instead of Folder A/Folder B as I originally selected.

Option to omit schema from filename created with SQL Compare
When the target of the compare is a scripts folder, SQL Compare will create new items with the schema name as part of the file name, such as "person.Contact.sql".
Could this be made optional?
It doesn't affect the filename when altering, only creating.
This behaviour causes us issues because we use Visual Studio database projects where the schema is part of the path, not the filename. For example such as "AdventureWorks\Person\Tables\Contact.sql"1 vote -

Allow indexes to be excluded by filtering
I have 2 databases - production, and archive. Archive has all the indexes of production (starting with "IX") but also has some archive only ones (starting with "AIX"). Would be nice if I could add a filter to "exclude indexes starting with 'AIX-'" to my comparison - currently I have to export to a script, and manually delete all the "drop index AIX_..." sections.

Column Filters
In the results grid, give the ability to filter the results instead of having to sort, great example is the schema column, let us filter by schema instead of having to sort and then scroll to find the schema we want to look at.

Filter for sensitivity of column data type comparison
For example, I would like to ignore when a column is a VARCHAR on both databases but with different lengths so I can focus on when the 2 data types are completely different eg. VARCHAR and NUMERIC.

Add Control+Insert to products
In Windows operation systems it is a common way to use Control+Insert keys instead of Control+C to copy selected text.
This is necessary to support left-mouse-handed people and it's driving me crazy that it does not work within your product(s).
At least I would love to use this option when working within the Comparison to copy code from a left or right script using Ctrl+Ins.
For completeness you should also keep "Shift+Insert" for Paste and "Shift+Del" for Cut operations in mind.
Thank you1 vote
