SQL History initial cursor location
When opening SQL History, it should default the cursor to the search input box instead of requiring an additional click to start a search. Since 90% of the time I'm going to input a search, it makes sense to put it there.
This has no downside as, currently, the cursor doesn't by default go to anything.

A Create/Declare Table statement with a Primary Key gives a false positive BP014 in Code Analysis
If you have a table declared like this:
Declare @Test table
(TheKey int Primary Key,
SomeData varchar(10) Not Null)I am told that for "TheKey" "[NOT] NULL option is not specified in CREATE/DECLARE TABLE statement" defined. But, a Primary Key can never be null, so it is NOT NULL by nature.
So, when performing Code Analysis and the parser sees "Primary Key", "Not Null" should be inferred also.

Put single quote marks around highlighted text (including multiple lines)
Very often i have copied a list of items i want to query in an IN() statement from the database, for example:
abc
def
ghi
jkland I want to format it like this:
'abc'
'def'
'ghi'
'jkl'or better yet:
'abc', 'def'
, 'ghi'
, 'jkl'Being able to highlight, right click, and select an option do do this, would be incredibly helpful.

code analysis blocks object detail
SQL Prompt v9.0.2.3223 use of Code Analysis has stopped the tooltip for showing structural details.
ie: statement like SELECT a,b,c FROM dbo.TableRequiringLock WITH (ROWLOCK, XLOCK) WHERE ID = @key
will just show TABLE HINT used when hovering over table name as opposed to showing the structure.

SQL Formatter error
When using OPENJSON with the WITH clause, the formatter does not recognize the WITH clause as valid SQL. This should format but throws an error:
DECLARE @JSONString NVARCHAR(MAX) SET @JSONString = N'{"Vendors":[{"VendorNumber":200,"VendorName":"Vendor1"},{"VendorNumber":201,"Vendo2"},{"VendorNumber":202,"VendorName":"Vendor3"}]}'
SELECT VendorNumber ,
VendorName
FROM OPENJSON(@JSONString, '$.Vendors')

Enhancement to "Warning on delete and update statements if no WHERE clause is specified"
This is a great idea, but I was surprised by the number of "false positives" I am getting (and yes, I can just mute the messages completely).
In my case I am doing a lot of updates/deletes with joins to temporary tables or table variables and that limits the update/delete scope.
Can you add to this feature so that messages will not be emitted if there is a join to a temporary table or table variable?
2 votesThanks for your feedback on this feature! We’ve just released a new build of SQL Prompt (7.2.1) which won’t show these warnings when modifying temp tables with aliases.

Exclude a region from formatting
Sometimes, formatting makes a query less readable, e.g.
insert table (col1, col2, col3, ....)
values (1,2,3,...),
(11,12,13,...),
...Formatting will put the values on multiple lines if there are enough of them. It's easier to see the data when they are on one line. So how about:
--#region [optional description] #SQLPromptIgnore
--anything in here doesn't get formatted
--#endregion [optional description]Not sure what would be best for '#SQLPromptIgnore'

Exclude Identity Field From Auto Generated Insert/Values Code For Table Variables
If a table variable or temp table has an identity field, I do not think this field should show up in the auto generated insert into/values list:

INSERT INTO @Table

Let cursor jump to capitalized letters within words (CTRL+arrow)
Hi there. Would it be possible to program a feature that is
present in Visual Studio (I think ReSharper brings it
into VS) which enables a programmer to select/move among
parts of a word based on where the capital letters are? (CTRL+arrow)
Say you have a variable called @ThisIsMyVariable.
If you place the cursor at the end of the word and then
press CTRL+<Left Arrow>, then it’d be nice if the cursor
jumped to the beginnig of the next capital letter instead
of the next word as is usual. This feature is very helpful in VS and I think it’d…2 votesThe latest version of Prompt has an experimental feature for “Change keyboard shortcut behavior for CamelCase words”

Tab History (aka SQL Tab Magic) should not show currently open windows
I love Tab Magic (or Tab History), but the with the latest version it also shows the tabs that are currently open. I would like an option to ignore currently open tabs. I can search those tabs right in SSMS, I need Tab History just for ones I've already closed.

Autogen insert and commas at the beginning of the statement
I find having the commas at the beginning of the line extremely useful - and was glad that Sql Prompt allows us to set the default as such for insert statements. I have to say the format is quite difficult to read, and find that I have to rewrite it each time. Can you please spend a few minutes to clean it up? I see there are a couple outstanding requests that have been ignored for 2 years now - no input from redgate at all. I'm sure there are others who would agree with this - (just check out…

snippet isn't working correctly
When using snippet with version before 6 (5ish), I could just hit tab and it will give me the correct code. However, with version 6, sometimes (half of the time), the first choice is nothing. It will do nothing rather than giving me the code for that particular snippet. Please fix it. It's very frustrating.
