  1. Add "Clean install" checkbox with appropriate warnings and option to back up styles and tab history where the user can specify and/or change the suggested backup location by default. Offer an easy option (inside menu?) to restore from the backup once installed. Take a look at Visual Studio editor options can be exported (backed up to a file) and subsequently restored later.

    Also, take a look at nVidia, AMD Radeon (formerly ATI) and perhaps Intel network card driver installers as an example for "clean install".

  2. When working on a management server with SQL Prompt and SSMS, we usually don't have Microsoft Office with Excel installed there. This makes it very cumbersome to use the current feature of SQL Prompt to export grid results to an Excel file as there is no application available on the server to process the file.

    Instead, I often use a very nice feature in SSMSBoost that copies to grid results data to an XML spreadsheet which can then be pasted into Excel on your client, preserving data types. The regular copy/paste from SSMS to Excel only copies text data from…

  3. When adding brackets via CTRL+B,CTRL+B, Windows-based principals (users, groups, etc.) are not correctly bracketed. The brackets are placed around the domain or computer name portion of the principal, instead of the combination of the domain/computer and user/group name.

    For example, if this statement is entered

    ALTER SERVER ROLE sysadmin ADD MEMBER MYDOMAIN\USER

    using CTRL+B,CTRL+B will yield this:

    ALTER SERVER ROLE [sysadmin] ADD MEMBER [MYDOMAIN]\USER

    instead of the correct syntax:

    ALTER SERVER ROLE [sysadmin] ADD MEMBER [MYDOMAIN\USER]

    Would also be helpful if principals from NT AUTHORITY and NT SERVICE could be correctly handled.

  5. Have buttons to add/remove square brackets rather than tucked away under Options, so they can be toggled on or off easily.

    And/or move the square brackets option out of Options and into the actual formatting style (like the option to remove additional whitespace) so it can be saved and shared as a template

  6. As AI powered tools like codepilot, kite or tabnine are on the rise, It would be so great to add an AI assistant to SQL Prompt to support developers on their way to write t-sql code effortless.

  8. SQL Prompt doesn't allow to exclude servers, only way we can filter out server if we add each database under SQL prompt settings (Suggestions>Connections).

    We have busy production server and if we connect to production server, SQL prompt execute series of SQL queries against system database tables. Even though impact is minimal, It would be nice if there is a way filtering out servers rather than just the database objects.

  12. If I create a query with an ORDER BY clause such as ORDER BY 1, 2; SQL Prompt will flag the ORDER BY and report ORDER BY clause with constants.

    It would be nice to have an option to have SQL Prompt replace the constant(s) with the correct column names.

  13. Check if left and right are the same, and so always true:

    like Where [Column]=[Column]

    or Where @var1 = @var 1 ..

    this is a big mistake .. just happened to me ..

  14. When using the «Script as INSERT» functionality, I always have to manually wrap the INSERT statements with SET IDENTITY_INSERT «table name» ON and OFF.

    The state of the IDENTITY-property of the PK is available. Would you please at least include a togglable property to allow for the automatic addition of this very useful functionality please?

  15. Run Qualify Object Names operation without having to open each file in SSMS.

    I want to be able to apply best practices in bulk. Opening individual files and running qualify object names is very time consuming. It would be nice to do this operation in Bulk on a folder or list of files.

  16. Rather than reminding about updates, it would be helpful to offer the ability to do a pending update as soon the client has been closed, as Visual Studio now does.

  17. It would be useful to have snippets included when searching in the command palette. Selecting snippet would open snippet editor with focus on the selected snippet.

  18. There is a feature that was in WinSQL where each field in a column would have a little plus sign if it had a foreign key. If you click the plus sign it would look up that value in the table with the foreign key in a new tab (it would give a choice of tables if there are more than one, then do the lookup).
    It was very useful and a great learning tool; it would be a great addition to SQL Prompt. Pictures attached.

  20. When SMSS closes (either by user interaction or unintended closure), SQL Prompt does not save the tabs when I am working in a view. It only saves the tabs that are queries, saved or unsaved. The problem with this is that many times I am creating a view, or working with views. These are never saved with SQL Prompt, so the tab history feature is more or less useless. Redgate needs to include views and unsaved tabs in the recoverable tabs list.
