Outlining
Would be great to be able to add user specific outlining, so that you could add + & - where ever you choose in a sql script to collapse down certain parts. The CRM system that I support has a create contact table import with 200 columns which is regularly used and this functionality would be great when having to resort to using this import etc...

Ability to Save invalid objects list instead of re-running entire database each time
When you are working with a rather large database it would be nice to be able to save a list of invalid objects to come back rather than having to re-run through the entire database again.

Fix bug that causes SQL Prompt to crash when RedGate_SQLPrompt_CommonUI_Options_UIOptions.xml is locked
SSMS will freeze up and become unusable whenever RedGateSQLPromptCommonUIOptionsUIOptions.xml is being used by another program. Users can no longer use SSMS when this occurs and need to restart their computer when this happens. This has been very disruptive for the development team as this occurs multiple times per week.

Intellisense for system stored procedure parameter values
For system stored procedures, some parameters have a predefined set of possible values, e.g.
msdb.dbo.sp_add_jobstephas the parameter@on_success_action.The MS documentation lists this predefined list of possible values:
1 (Default) Quit with success
2 Quit with failure
3 Go to next step
4 Go to step@on_success_step_idIt would be great if Intellisense could suggest values for these sorts of parameters, saving a trip to Microsoft's website.

Automatic updates for SQL Prompt without the need for administrator privileges
Currently users have to install SQL Prompt updates manually and this requires administrator privileges which is not ideal in a workplace setting. I was wondering if this could be changed so that SQL Prompt updates itself without the need for manual install and administrator privileges.
Thank you in advance for your help.

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

Copy results grid data to Excel as an XML spreadsheet to preserve data types
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…

Check is left and right are the same, and always true: like Where [Column]=[Column]

Share tabs between clients
Currently I'm onboarding a new laptop. I've been given a few weeks to offboard my old laptop so I'm working between the two. Additionally I sometimes work on a jump-box.
All 3 of these instances are logged in with my SQL Prompt credentials. I have a solution for sharing my Snippets, Connection Coloring, and Styles between these machines. However it would be nice also if I could re-open a tab from my old laptop on the new laptop (or the jump box) as and when I'm switching between machines.

Option to align AND conditions with ON clause
Would love to have the option to have all conditions (AND / OR) aligned (or same indentation) with the ON clause, for example:
FROM dbo.orders AS o
JOIN dbo.orderAttributes AS oa
~~ON oa.companyID = o.companyID
~~AND oa.orderID = o.orderID5 votes -
Secure tab history
Either detect and scrub passwords from tab history, or store the history files securely so they can't be copied by backup software and viewed as plain text on the drive without a password.

Warn against reserved words in column names
Consider a table
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ItemGroups](
[Group] [VARCHAR](25) NOT NULL,
[Description] [VARCHAR](25) NOT NULL)SELECT Group from dbo.ItemGroups ->
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'Group'.
Would be nice to get a warning when a column name is a reserved word. Square brackets make the syntax valid but unnecessary if a column is named more accurately, e.g. ItemGroupCode

Tab History - Closed tabs
It would be nice to have an ability to use either CTRL + click and SHIFT + click combos or to have check boxes there in order to select multiple closed scripts for a removal from Tab History instead of repeatedly hitting Remove context menu choice. It should save developer's time. Check boxes would be even better implementation choice, because that way you can apply context menu choice to a selection of scripts. Yay!

Copy as IN clause - Allow second column as ID comment
So… Copy as IN Clause. Love it, but let’s improve it. Let’s say we have the following output…
ProductID ProductDesc
1 SQL Prompt
2 SQL Search
3 SQL CompareIf we use Copy as IN Clause on the ProductID column, we get:
IN
(
1,
2,
3
)Which super…. However those IDs mean nothing to me in 6 months time when I’m now having to modify my code. What would be awesome, is if I can select both ProductID and ProductDesc, then hit Copy as IN Clause, and get the following output:
IN
