  1. I'd like to see a right-click on a tab or the tab-bar and have the option to "reopen closed tab" (and the ability to do that several times through working back through the order the tabs were closed). Same functionality as the major web browsers have.

  4. Add option to prevent SQL Prompt from looking across DBs for joins. We have DB Servers with 5000 DBs on them. SQL Prompt struggles to try and evaluate possible cross DB joins. It'd be nice to be able to turn that off so that it only tries to do analysis on the currently selected DB.

  5. Hello,

    I try some Add ins for sql server and i found a very interesting and useful functionnality on Softtree sql assistant.
    When we have a very large Stored procedure for example, with several BEGIN and END , softtree have a functionality when i place the mouse on BEGIN to [Jump to end] to find the corresponding END, the opposite is also true, when i Place the mouse on END [Jump to begginning].
    This functionnlity is very very useful.
    I hope you consider developing the same functionality in your SQL Prompt.

    Best regards,
    Luis

  7. I like the new feature to put recently-selected items at the top of the list for Intellisense. However, when I have typed an exact match, I would like to see Intellisense elevate that exact object to the top of the list.

    For example, suppose I have recently selected a table named "dbo.OrderDetail", and suppose that there is another table in the same database called dbo.Order. With the new feature, I cannot access "dbo.Order" as the top candidate, because it is a partial match of "dbo.OrderDetail," and so SQLPrompt puts that name at the top.

    In a nutshell, I would like…

  8. Currently SQL Prompt only has one option for formatting insert statements which poses a problem for us with multi value set inserts.

    Ideally we'd be able to select a formatting for a single value set insert and another format for a multi value set insert.

    This would allow us to do something like this:

    -- Single Value Set Insert
    INSERT INTO TestTable (TestName,
    ~~~~TestValue,
    ~~~~TestDate)
    VALUES (N'Something',
    ~~~~140,
    ~~~~'1/1/2019')

    -- Multi Value Set Insert
    INSERT INTO TestTable (TestName, TestValue, TestDate)
    VALUES (N'Something', 140, '1/1/1900'),
    ~~~~(N'SomethingElse', 150, '1/2/1900'),
    ~~~~(N'SomethingElse2', 160, '1/2/2000')

    The issue for us is that we have need of…

  10. I would like to see the Script Object as Alter (F12) feature to work with synonyms. However, I am aware that a synonym cannot be altered - instead I suggest to generate a script containing a DROP and a CREATE statement.

    That way one could bring up the code of the referenced object by selecting the synonym, pressing F12, selecting the referenced object and pressing F12 again.

  11. 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 ).

  13. I would like a hot key combination to send the contents of my current tab to 'Tab History' without having to close the tab. There are times that I know I will need the contents of the tab in the near future (within a few hours/days) and I don't want to have to save a hard copy to my disk.

  14. Have auto alias base its output on the alias name instead of the name of the table it is pointing to.

    Example: Alias "Transaction" pointing to "TransactionTableWithComplexName" should be "t" and not "ttwcn".

  16. It would be nice if SQL Prompt had a way to add in the code DROP TABLE IF EXISTS #table for temp tables. Ideally it would add the statement immediately before the table is created from a CREATE TABLE or SELECT INTO statement.

  17. My Teams would prefer this option:

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (
    xxxxxxx,
    xxxxxxx )

    Opening parenthesis on the first line, and closing parenthesis on the last line.

    Second and following lines indented one stop. This display seems to strip out the leading spaces.

  18. For example, if a table is defined as such :

    CREATE TABLE dbo.T1 (
    col1 INT DEFAULT 100,
    col2 VARCHAR(100) DEFAULT 'Example',
    col3 DATETIME DEFAULT '01/01/2019'
    )

    And use auto-complete to generate and INSERT, it will produce :

    INSERT INTO dbo.T1( col1, col2, col3 )
    VALUES( 0 -- col1 - int
    ,'' -- col2 - varchar(100)
    ,GETDATE() -- col3 - datetime
    )

    Instead, it would be nice to have it produce the insert with the defined table default's, something like :

    INSERT INTO dbo.T1( col1, col2, col3 )
    VALUES( 100 -- col1 - int
    ,'Example' -- col2 - varchar(100)
    ,'01/01/2019…

  19. The constraint name is not suggested when using the syntax
    "ALTER TABLE <TableName> WITH CHECK CHECK CONSTRAINT <ConstraintName>

    The suggestion feature works great when using NOCHECK CONSTRAINT

  20. When working with views, you lose the intellisense for columns. It would be nice if SQL Prompt could get the MS_Description value for the view column from the underlying base table for the view.
