  1. Incorrect capitalization of system functions

    The SQL Prompt formatter incorrectly tries to capitalize (whether automatically while I type or using the formatter) system functions that are missing a database prefix. For example, SQL Prompt doesn't try to capitalize:

    sys.fn_listextendedproperty

    but it WILL capitalize

    fn_listextendedproperty

    as soon as I hit space, regardless of the CASE setting in SQL Prompt's options. Obvious, a capitalized FN_LISTEXTENDEDPROPERTY does not work: the function is case-sensitive.

    There does not appear to be a way around this, not even by setting Format -> Styles -> Case -> Buit-in functions to "Leave as is". That only resolves the problem for the manual formatter:…

    This is fixed in the latest build of Prompt, if you’re still having problems please let me know.

  2. Case formatting

    Case formatting to allow option of capitalising initial letter only - e.g. Select, not SELECT or select.

    The latest version of Prompt has the casing option UpperCamelCase which will case SELECT as Select.

  3. Tab Magic EAP hijacks CTRL-T completely.

    Do not hijack CTRL-T in Tab Magic. I routinely use this to direct query output to Text. I use this in concert with CTRL-D, for output to Grid.
    Perhaps when options for Tab Magic are provided, we will be able to turn off this feature.

    We’ve released SQL Prompt 6 which includes the ability to change the keyboard shortcut.

  4. Show Long file names in Query History in Tool Tip

    Hi,

    Thanks for your last changes!

    In addition, I have sometime Long file names where only looking on their Name tail or according to their full path, I can decide which one is the relevant.
    Could you add in Query History a Tool Tip when hovering above the File Name with Full Name, Path, Last Closed, Last Connection details, etc.?

  5. Recognize double quotes for object names in the same way as square brackets.

    Please enable SQL Prompt to have the same behavior with double quotes as with square brackets.

    For example, typing:
    SELECT * FROM [MyTable]
    will allow the expansion of the asterisk, while
    SELECT * FROM "MyTable"
    does not.

    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER is ON by default. Also, many Oracle "converts" use the format "SchemaName"."TableName".

  6. auto suggest when character is added after table is selected so when SalesOrderLine is shows after SalesOrder

    Intellisense should pop up when a character is added after table is selected so when there is a table named SalesOrderLine it should be suggested even after the table SalesOrder was chosen via tab if i type further without a space.

    The latest version of SQL Prompt (6.3) should show the suggestions again once you type the “L” after SalesOrder

  7. Please provide intellisense even when not in the current database

    In SSMS when accessing a table that is not in the current database (using the three part convention) then no intellisense is coming up for the fields (such as in the where clause)

    SQL Prompt now supports suggestions from other databases when using the three part convention.

  8. Supprt Quoted identifiers for prompting

    If you go
    SELECT * FROM sys.tables AS t
    or
    SELECT * FROM sys.tables AS [t]

    then intellisense will happily carry on working correcly, with t. now showing object members.

    However

    SELECT * FROM sys.tables AS "t"
    and
    SELECT * FROM sys.tables AS 't'

    both cause the intellisense to give up for the rest of the batch. All four identifier markups are valid (for now) and should be treated equally...

  9. More options for saving results from grid

    When saving results from the grid in SSMS the only option is to csv. It doesn't include headers and if your data has commas in it, the csv file becomes formatted incorrectly. An option to go to excel, or a tab delimited txt file, or choosing the delimiter would be useful.
