Toggle SQL Prompt Suggestions
I love the immediate suggestions when I need/want them, however when I do not want them, the suggestion box ends up blocking my screen more than it helps (Often blocking code I want to reference in a future query) and there is not a good way to make the suggestion box go away without clicking away from wherever it was suggesting.
I know I can delay the popup and manually show suggestions with ctrl+space, but I would love to be able to manually hide them as well with ctrl+space as a simple toggle. It would greatly help me and other…

"Prompt AI" allow more database objects, or a defined lists of schemas
Tried to test out the new Prompt AI feature and cannot use it to generate SQL as the DB has more than 4000 objects (over 6000 actually). It would be great to limit the schemas within the DB where I want the AI tool to "know about" so that A) it keeps the AI focused on just the schemas it needs to answer most questions and B) it keeps the overall list of objects and time needed to poll them more manageable. In absence of this, allow more objects.

Add a “Save Results As” Excel option
This is needed because I am required to run SSMS with elevated rights.
My regular Windows login doesn't have access to my database servers, and my elevated account doesn't have access to my MS 365 office suite.
Because of this, the "Open in Excel" feature is not useable.

Warn if comparing column to itself in WHERE clause
I would love a warning to prevent the classical mistake of comparing a column with itself instead of with another column in a WHERE clause.
An example is the following, where I would like a warning where one has "qlpd.interimdisbursementid = qlpd.interimdisbursementid" as it should be qlpd.interimdisbursementid = di.interimdisbursementid instead:
SELECT *
FROM dbo.datinterimdisbursement AS di
INNER JOIN dbo.qlirologPayoutServicedata qlpd
ON qlpd.interimdisbursementid = qlpd.interimdisbursementid;1 vote -
Copy (just) 1 or more headers from result
I would like the ability to select 1 or more values in a result and have the (right-click?) option to select header(s). I then have the header, or headers separated with commas in my clipboard.

Search for column in result
I would LOVE! the ability to have a search window with my results from a query, where I type in any part of a column name and it lists all columns containing value I typed in.
By default one is positioned on the applicable column in the result (scrolling if necessary in wider result set), but if one clicks on any column matching value then it positions one on that column in the result.1 vote -
FREEZES SSMS - Add what tool (name) caused the error to the title of an error window
The error popup comes out of nowhere when navigating SSMS tree nodes, notably when selecting a specific database name. I expected it came from SQL Prompt, but there was nothing being logged even when verbose option has been enabled.
The support helped clarify it "probably" came from SQL Source Control installed recently.
Also, the "Send Error Report" never worked.
The error completely freezes SSMS as it is a modal.
It has to be dismissed multiple times and then navigated away from the selected database back to a server's name - quickly using a keyboard.

don't do auto completion when renaming
When renaming a table alias, or a variable, sometimes you want to rename it to something and SQL Prompt will intercept the return key (to accept the rename) and "auto correct" it - for example, this morning I wanted to change a table alias to "l" and it auto corrected this to "LEFT", so I had to change it back and press enter again.
It's not a big thing, just it happens quite a lot and can be aggravating.

Refactoring: Convert expression to cross apply
Working with a query that contains the same expression multiple times, I often want to extract all instances of that expression into a CROSS APPLY for readability and ease of modification, e.g. converting something like this horribleness:
select foo = case when bar < 100 then 'a' when bar > 200 then 'b' else 'c' end, count(*)
from baz
where case when bar < 100 then 'a' when bar > 200 then 'b' else 'c' end in ('a','b')
group by case when bar < 100 then 'a' when bar > 200 then 'b' else 'c' endinto something more manageable…

SQL History - Recent query list filenames - increase number of characters displayed before truncation
This is a minor inconvenience, but one with multiple potentially easy solutions. When using SQL History, I find that the "Recent queries" filenames become truncated very early due to the large font size and having only a single row of text used for displaying them. There is also a chunk of free space / padding to the right side that seems to be wasted (see orange arrow in my 2nd screenshot).
Given the naming convention that I tend to use with my saved scripts ("date - internal ticket # - brief script description/purpose"), I often only see the date and…

Add Connection color to Object Explorer
Dealing with multiple servers via the connection coloring is great, but looking at the object explorer while you are drilled down into things often has me scrolling to figure out what server I'm really looking at. Could we get a color bar in the object explorer that would simply have the color designated for the server.
It would make it easier to tell what environment I'm looking at.

make update notification window resizable or autosize with Windows zoom
I like to use the Windows zoom feature to make text bigger. (Not the dpi size feature, but rather the text size feature listed above the dpi setting.)
With this increased, I cannot see the links in Red Gate update notification windows. I'll open SSMS and get a notification for prompt that I am running 1.0.7 and the latest version is 1.0.8. There is a details link that allows me to upgrade. I can also upgrade by downloading the latest version of the tools from the Red Gate web site.
However, for minor upgrades, I often skip the upgrade process…

Show Code Window Even if Schema is Missing
When I scroll over an object *table, view, function, stored procedure), SQL Prompt typically displays a tooltip that describes what the object is (e.g. Table). I can click on the tooltip and see a script of the object.
However, if I have not included the schema, then I do not get the tooltip, but rather a warning that "Schema name for table or view is not specified" and I am not able to view the object code without either disabling that alert or adding the schema name.
While it may be advantageous to have this rule enabled, it would also…

Go to variable definition
I would like a feature that allows a user to right click on a variable name and allow for an option of
Go To Declaration
so it would scroll up to the place where the variable is declared. The hover option shows how it is defined, but not where it is defined which is also extremely helpful when troubleshooting and researching a script.7 votes -
HoverOver Popup Incorrect
Using SSMS 21.4.8 and SQL Prompt 11.0.6.17341.
Using a derived select to retrieve data then derive select that to change the data types then a third derived select to present the data.
In the inner most SELECT, the fields OrderID and OrderItemID are Integer in both the the Microsoft and SQL Prompt HoverOver popups.
In the outer most SELECT, the OrderID and OrderItemID are Varchar in the Microsoft HoverOver popup but Integer in the SQL Prompt HoverOver popups.
Also in the outer most SELECT, down in the ORDER BY, they show differently hovering over between the Microsoft and SQL prompt…

Add or detect missing 'N' on inline string literals containing Unicode characters
This is an extension of:
https://redgate.uservoice.com/forums/94413-sql-prompt/suggestions/6779217-add-n-to-unicode-type-literal-stringsExcept I would like to improve this feature so that it is not limited to just variable declarations, but also for inline string literals.
For example, if an inline string literal contains a unicode character, it should have the N prefix. If anything it should probably be a Code Analysis rule rather than formatting because this change can absolutely impact code behavior. So I think it's better suited to be an analysis rule.
