How can we improve SQL Compare?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. Use the SQL Prompt setting when generating a new compare

    When I generate the HTML report that it defaults back to the old view. Then simple formatting differences is shown, which were not part of the interactive view when using the SQL Prompt setting.

  2. debug logging

    I've recently hit a problem when using SQL Compare (which was logged as request #322451).

    I am reasonably sure the issue is with the database, not the tool, but when using debug logging, there's just not enough information to understand why it gets stuck on "reading object text (99%)" for over 20 minutes for a specific database, yet is very fast on other similarly sized databases.

    Some additional logging during the comparison phase might help to work out why this is happening.

  3. case insensitive built-in keywords and function names

    We need an option to ignore the difference when the same keywords or built-in functions have different cases, since those differences do not matter even for binary collation databases.
    Example of irrelevant differences is attached

  5. For Deploy offer option to copy to clipboard

    In SQL Compare when you choose to Deploy changes and then wish to Create a deployment script it wants you to open it up in a SQL editor. Because I am using newer versions of SSMS or I am running it on a different deployment server from my local machine it would be helpful to just be able to copy it to the clipboard so it can then be run manually..

  6. SQL Compare on SSMS Keep closing

    I have installed SQL Compare tool with other options. This has added some Redgate features on my SSMS. When I click on procedures and right click to filter SSMS keep closing automatically and then I have to open SSMS again. This was not happening before I installed red gate SQL compare tool.
