Update process
Hi, this is not related to SQL Prompt only, but to the update process in general.
As our company firewall is blocking the link in Help "Check for updates ...", I have to submit the "Download a 28 days trial" form and download the full "SQLToolbelt.exe".
Which is also blocked by the company proxy rules. :-(
So I have to download the file on my private PC and then copy it to my business machine.
I assume, my company is not the only one with such precautionary measures.
Maybe you can implement additional options to download updates.1 vote -
Autogenerate variables based on correlated field
When writing SQL, I frequently will create a variable within the statement before I have Declared the variable. It would be great if SQL Prompt offered a UI option to autogenerate the variable declaration.
For example, given the statement:
SELECT * FROM dbo.Person WHERE Username = @Username
I would like to use a shortcut key to auto generate and insert the declaration above the statement:
DECLARE @Username VARCHAR(8);For simple fields, the data type can be pulled directly from the field metadata. For expressions, derive the data type as SQL would if possible, or move the cursor to the data…

Shortcut to switch equality statements
It would be very convenient when going through legacy scripts to be able to hit a shortcut combination to switch the order of an equality statement, for example in a JOIN clause
For example, with the cursor on "A.ID = User.AccountID":
SELECT U.Username
FROM Account AS A
INNER JOIN Users AS U ON A.ID = U.AccountID AND U.Active = 1
WHERE A.ID = @AccountID AND U.ID = @UserIDBecomes
SELECT U.Username
FROM Account AS A
INNER JOIN Users AS U ON U.AccountID = A.ID AND U.Active = 1 --note, only clause where cursor is is switched.
WHERE A.ID = @AccountID…1 vote -

Copy results as Markdown Table
When right-clicking in the results tab, SQL Prompt should offer the posibility to copy the results as a table with markdown formatting (for Stack Overflow / Stack Exchange network). See https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/356997/feature-preview-table-support for the syntax.

Using Ctrl-F12 to jump to object - Refresh if required
I often use the Ctrl-F12 feature to jump to an object in the object Explorer, however this doesn't work if the object has been renamed, or was just recently created. In those cases I need to manually refresh the object Explorer before I can use F12. Perhaps the F12 feature could do that for me? (or prompt if it can't find the object)

Add a hotkey that will expand the selection to envelop the current statement
Pressing control+A will select an entire document.
I'd like a control+k, control+A to select the current statement based on cursor position.This would enable me to do a few things:
01. Format the current statement with a hotkey
02. Copy or cut my current statement so I can paste it somewhere elseThanks.

Add "Set as Active Connection" to Registered Servers
This is essentially the same as a forgotten SSMS request over here: https://feedback.azure.com/forums/908035/suggestions/32896039
It would be incredibly useful to be able right-click on a server-node in the Registered Servers list and change/set the connection for the current document window to that. You already have a custom context menu item in there ("Tab Color (Server)", so that hurdle is gone.
This idea is related to these, but not quite the same. In both cases, it seems they don't know about the Registered Server functionality, so they're basically asking for this idea, plus for you to re-implement that entire feature.

Filter tables, views, etc. on multiple strings
I would like to be able to filter on more than one string in the Object Explorer of SSMS.
For example, I only want to see views that contain “OKDim” or “SSISOK”. Now I can only filter on “OK”, which still results in a long list of views.8 votes -

Highlight difference between selected rows
Time to time you need to compare data in the rows, for example when looking for the cause of duplication. If the query is complex enough with joins and wide tables I usually run
SELECT * FROM ...
and check where the duplication begins to easily find the root cause. The easiest way for me to do so is to copy it into the excel and do some simple formula to find the exact columns that have difference.
It would be nice if SQL Prompt would support that feature. If it's possible then it can be done by highlighting needed…

Open Transaction Warning
Occasionally, developers working in SSMS accidentally leave transactions open. This causes big issues, of course. SSMS lets the user know if they try to close a tab with an uncommitted transaction, but only when the user tries to close the tab.
I would like a feature in SQL Prompt so that it lets the user know that they have an uncommitted transaction. SQL Prompt could prompt the user via a toast pop-up or coloring the connection tab or something

COPY AS ALTER BUTTON
Hello,
So I love the suggestion feature where I'm able to type in an object and the code appears to copy. Home run with this feature I can't thank you enough for it.
I was wondering if it would be possible to expand on it though.
Here is a sample. I'm looking to alter an object, let's say a stored proc...
I usually begin by typing EXEC <name> to trigger the suggestion for stored procs to give me the object.Once the suggestion finds the object, the script contents appears in a side window.

Allow query results to be editable grid
I would like to have the ability when using Redgate to develop a query as I do today in a new query window with all the object search and suggestions features currently offered in your product.
After I get the query returning the correct record set, I want to be able to edit the record set without having to copy the query and navigate to SSMS’s “Edit Top XXX Rows” menu item.
Editing a field on the row would update that field on that row when I move off the row.2 votes -
Copy as WHERE clause
It would be useful to be able to copy a selection from the results grid which is pre-formatted as a WHERE clause in the same way "Copy as clause" IN works, e.g. copying a single value from ProductID column would produce WHERE ProductID = 5 and copying multiple values would produce WHERE ProductID in ( 5, 10, 15 ).

Add "duplicate a line" feature similar to Resharper's Ctrl+L.
When cursor is placed on any line simple shortcut would insert exactly same line below and move cursor to the newly inserted. No prior selection of any kind necessary.
