Intellisense for system stored procedures
I just needed to re attach a database from a single mdf file. Something I do every 6 months or so and every time I have to google the command and its syntax. Would be helpful so SQL Prompt recognised and helped with these and other inbuilt procedures and their parameters, for example:
spattachsinglefiledb
sp_helptext
spattachdb
23 votesIn 6.4 we always provide intellisense for system stored procedures if the query is being run against master.
If you’re running against a normal db then we hide the system stored procedures by default as they clutter the suggestions list. There’s a couple ways to get around this, either by qualifying with “sys.” or using the “List system objects” option. A video on this can be found here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8DOTmHkKo8

inserted and deleted tables should be supported in triggers
There is currently no support for the 'inserted' and 'deleted' tables within triggers. They should be treated as equivalent to the original table that the trigger is attached to.

Lower-Case Keyword Support in Format SQL
Support lower-casing keywords instead of upper-casing them; this makes reading the query far easier as the app-specific bits are more visible

add semi colon to insertion keys
Could we have a check box to allow us to have the semi colon as one of the insertion keys (Main->Behaviour)?
It's not as common as the other keys there but when I'm about to finish a script I can't just hit the semi colon key.

Qualify column names with table aliases only
I would like an additional option for the Inserted code > Qualification tab:
Qualify column names with table aliases only.
Most times I want to assign a table alias and use it when adding columns, however if I forget to assign a table alias or remove it, I don't want a fully qualified table name when using the Qualify column names with table name option.
I would like the option to qualify with both table names and table aliases or just table aliases and NOT table names.

Add ability to include earlier tables in the Join Clause
When writing a query that joins to several tables, the Join Clause only seems to look at the previos table to determine what columns can be used to join on. For example, when typing out the following query:
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[employee] AS E
INNER JOIN [dbo].[Department] AS D
ON [E].[DepartmentID] = [D].[DepartmentID]
INNER JOIN [dbo].[Position] AS P
ON ...When I look at the options for the ON clause for the join to Position, it doesn't include any columns being joined back to the Employee table. It would be nice if the suggestions would include at least any foreign…

Ability to flip the sides in an auto generated join clause
When I write a join statement I put the last table that I am joining to the other tables on the left side of a join clause. For example:
SELECT *
FROM tblOrder o
INNER JOIN tblIOrder_Detail d
ON d.OrderID = o.OrderID
The auto-generated join clause would be "ON o.OrderID = d.OrderID". It would be nice if it was possible to customize this behaviour to choose which side there will be each table/alias on.Thanks

select column names
after typing select and adding table name the popup box that shows the table summary (column names and their types); if these rows(column names) be clickable, select columns could be filled from that list instead of typing.

toggle SQL Prompt from toolbar
I frequently need to work on longer procedure or scripts, and the longer the script gets Sql Prompt gets more and more bogged down, to the point I just turn it off. It would be nice to be able to toggle it from the toolbar rather than open the options to un-check 'Use SQL Prompt'

Moving commas from "end" to "start" is always buggy when comments exist
Moving commas from "end" to "start" or vice-versa is buggy when comments exist after each column or parameter. This is an issue regardless of the type of statement (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, CREATE TABLE/VIEW/FUNCTION/STORED PROCEDURE, etc).
Here is my original SP with commas at "end" followed by comments (hyphens are used for indentation due to HTML formating issues):
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.MyProcedure
---- @Param1 int, --Param1 comments
---- @Param2 int, --Param2 comments
---- @Param3 int --Param3 comments
AS
BEGIN
---- SELECT Col1 , --Col1 comments
---- ---- Col2 , --Col2 comments
---- ---- Col3 --Col3 comments
---- FROM MyTable
---- RETURN
END…16 votesThis feature is now included in the new SQL Prompt 8.0. For additional information see: http://documentation.red-gate.com/display/SP8/SQL+Prompt+8.0+release+notes

Auto generated INSERT statement is buggy with commas at start
The auto-generated INSERT statement BADLY MISALIGNS data when "Place commas at start" is enabled. I've listed all the settings to reproduce the issue at the end of this post.
The comma and associated info are on a separate line (almost useless - Worse when I need to delete some of the columns). See this example (generated by SQL Prompt Pro 5.1 - hyphens represent tabs due to HTML limitations):
INSERT INTO dbo.Test
---- (FirstName
---- , LastName
---- , LocationAddress
---- , LocationCity
---- , LocationState
---- , LocationZip)
VALUES (''
---- , -- FirstName - varchar(100)
---- ''

Format SQL to Match Object Case
If I had the table [Address] that had the columns StreetAddress1, StreetAddress2, City, State and ZipCode defined and the following existing code was formatted:
SELECT streetaddress1,
streetaddress2,
CITY,
zipcode
FROM [address]I would like to see SQL Prompt match the case of the underlying object such that the results after formatting would be:
SELECT StreetAddress1,
StreetAddress2,
City,
ZipCode
FROM [Address]This should apply to all underlying objects (procedures [name and parameters], tables [columns, index names (used in hints), etc., functions and views; and anything else I forgot). It should also apply to variables defined within a procedure (e.g. DECLARE @MyValue…

Create more $...$ placeholders for snippets
I would like to see additional placeholders for the snippet manager. For example $DBNAME$, $SERVER$, $PASTE$ (already suggested). A format option for $DATE$ and $TIME$ would also be nice (e.g. $DATE(mm/dd/yyyy)$ $TIME(hh:mm:ss24/hh:mm:ssA/hh:mm)$, etc.).

Refactoring INSERT into UPDATE
I wish there where a shortcut/command to change a statement like
INSERT INTO Mytable(Id,Code,Label) VALUES (@Id,@Code,@Label)
in
UPDATE MyTable
SET Id=@Id, Code=@Code, Label =@LabelEven if it looks trivial on this statement, doing it with a table with 10+ Columns might be cumbersome.
