Version Stamping
Our dev group versions our styles. A small change between style versions can cause numerous changes in a single file making peer reviews more difficult than they need to be.
My suggestion is to add an Format > Styles > Actions option to add style stamp. Implementation would be adding a comment with a style/version stamp at the top of the file when a format is applied. If the comment exists prior to formatting, that style will be used by SQL Prompt regardless of selected style. If the style/version is not found, the selected style is used. To change which…

SQL History
'History for SQL Queryxxx' pane - there are too many versions. I don't need a version for every minor change. How about adding an option for how often to save versions?

Database-specific snippets
Database-specific snippets.
We have 80 or so databases scattered across 200+ instances and many tables have similar names or identical names with differing schemas: compare person.personpe, dbo.person & finance.personpe. This particular is extreme and there are more examples but the principle applies.
I would love to be able to define pe as a snippet at a database level so that I can keep my snippet names short and so that I don't have to rename them manually when I am in SSMS with a lesser used database.

Disable update and new notifications
It would be great if you would introduce a new setting where we can turn of update- and other notifications (like "SQL 2008R2 not supported") warnings.

Computed Column Update process
Occasionally I must edit the definition of a computed column. As editing a computed column is not allowed from SQL, would be nice to generate a script that would facilitate this update, similar to the rename script. (Ie, drops indexes, drops the field, recreates the field, and recreates the indexes.)
Obviously this is similar to the functionality of the Smart Rename, except doesnt' have to edit Views and Sprocs, so hopefully most of the logic could quickly copy over from there!

SQL History
Over the years my Tab/Sql History became huge, and it is working very slow. I am looking for a way to clean up.
1. There is no way to select multiple lines to delete. Delete is available only for one row. For example, every ALTER PROCEDURE creates history. I don’t need it at all. I would like to find all of them and delete.
2. There is no functionality to compress and reindex Sql History database.
3. Ironically “Send Feedback” link on a bottom of screen leads to nowhere.8 votes -
Shortcut Keys and/or Button Bar Buttons for Command Tab Options Like Add Commas and Add Quotes and Commas
When you open the command pallet the tools under the Commands tab like 'Add Commas' and 'Add Quotes and Commas' are extremely useful. It would be a tremendous time saver to not have to get to them via the menu and simply be able to assign them to Shortcut Keys and/or Toolbar buttons. There are quite a few options that can be assigned to buttons, but not these. Please consider adding this feature.
Thanks,

Support for windows certificate store
Currently, SQL prompt doesn't support the windows certificate store like most applications do. The only way to work around that currently is to simply trust all certificates which is inconvenient (having to set this across potentially hundreds of server connections) and a security gap.
SQL prompt should either provide an option to leverage the certificates. Currently, if a blanket trust is not provided, SSMS and SQL in general will work fine, but SQL prompt will cease to function, since the application (visual studio, SSMS) will connect correctly, but SQL prompt will not.

SQL History showing the query on the preview pane while hovering
Bring back TAB History!!! In the meantime, in SQL History, show the query/tab on the preview right side pane while hovering over the query on the left side.

Update formatting rules to handle ORDER BY inside an OVER expression
I had a query which was using ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY ColumnA ORDER BY ColumnB, ColumnC) and FORMAT SQL command put the ORDER BY clause as the first thing on the line (no indentation). It would be better if, when it needs to be wrapped, the ORDER BY inside an OVER was indented to line up with PARTITION BY).

Export snippets to text file
At times you do not always have the luxury to have SQL Prompt installed on all machines. Hence, it is extremely useful if snippets can be exported to a plain text file, so that at least one has the ability to retrieve the much needed sql scripts quickly via plain text files. It would be of great help if each snippet is exported to an individual text file that should be named like the snippet name.

Prompt Styles As Buttons
I've created a few different style templates and named them accordingly, but when I want to add them as buttons to quickly change between styles, there is just a list of styles with no label so I don't know what any of them are.
So I have to trawl through and add each of them as a menu button until the one I want appears, which is incredibly frustrating and time consuming! When its on the menu bar as a button, it has the appropriate name rather than just "style" so can this be added to the add button menu…

Replace the option Remove square brackets with Toggle square brackets
I usually enclose database and server names in square brackets.
Instead of only removing the square brackets, you could change that option (keeping its keyboard shortcut) to toggle between adding and removing them.3 votes -

Stop Overwriting Existing Features With new Alternatives that Aren't Merely Updates
The recent roll-out of SQL History was handled very poorly. SQL History isn't simply an update to Tab history else there would not have been the need for a name change. SQL History is an alternative feature meant to do what Tab History does (I hope) and more but on roll-out it made many of your paying customers not only angry because you replaced Tab history with it but because it wasn't ready for roll-out.
In the future when you feel the need to replace an existing beloved feature with something different and not just an update, DON'T! Instead roll…

Snippet adds or updates are not refreshed until SSMS is restarted.
Can you add a feature to auto refresh the cache of snippets or make part of the "refresh suggestions"

Snippet manager improvements
Love the snippets functionality, but four improvements would be nice:
1) Fix bug that if you click off a snippet to other windows before finishing it that it will lose everything you've entered and switch back to default values for everything.
2) Add an option to finish a snippet when you tab past the final value instead of cycling back to the first snippet.
3) When you hit ESC to exit a snippet, leave the cursor where it is instead of jumping to the end of the snippet.
4) Allow user to define where the cursor should go when exiting…1 vote -
Copy as IN clause should follow formating setting
I use the Copy as IN clause a lot and think it is one of the most helpful functions in SQL Prompt.
It would be even better if it could format the IN list according to the Style setting you have selected.
This is how it is created when right clicking on the function
