"d" in "order by" should prompt with "desc", not "dbcc"
Currently if you type a query like this:
select *
from sys.objects o
order by o.name d[CURSOR]the popup consists of dbcc, deallocate, declare, delete, deny, desc, disable trigger, drop, dump.
While that is probably technically accurate, it would be much more helpful to make "desc" the first entry in the list, because it's what I'm typing 100% of the time.

Insert Statement Highlighting with Split-Screen
Excellent work by the team in SQL Prompt 6.4 implementing the "Insert Statement Highlighting Column and Value" feature.
It would be great if this could be tweaked to work with split-screen editing. For example, if you have a REAAALLLY wide table, you might want to have your editing cursor in the bottom pane of SSMS but be looking at the top pane.
To clarify, I am talking about allowing the highlighting to work in both the top and bottom panes if you enable Window... Split (or drag the thing down at the top of the scroll bar).
This new…
1 voteWe’ve just release 6.4.0.657 which should have the highlighting on both panes of the split window. You can get the latest build either from Check for Updates inside Prompt or from our website: http://www.red-gate.com/products/sql-development/sql-prompt/

Allow Alias Names to Conflict with Stored Procedure Names
We have a table called SalesOrder. We also have stored procedures named so, so2, and so3. When SQL prompt creates the auto alias, it uses so4 because it won't create an alias using the name of an existing object.
I would like the alias to use so. The aliases don't need to have unique names in cases where the name conflicts with the name of a stored procedure.
If that's not possible or likely, then I would like SQL Prompt to use the custom alias defined for the table, even in cases where the name conflicts with a stored procedure.

Dot insertion key breaks IP addresses in Linked Servers
I added the 'dot' option to insertion keys and now I am unable to type dots in an IP address for a linked server without it autocompleting some random address, which I then have to go back and correct.

sort
It would be nice to have sortable columns in the table popup. This way we can see them in ordinal order (as it exists now), or order them alphabetically (or even by data type). Hopefully not much harder than changing a grid column property.
This would make it much easier for our Oracle folks to accept using SSMS, as it seems all Oracle tools do this by default. It would also shut them up. :) :)1 voteThis is included in SQL Prompt 6.4, which you can download from http://www.red-gate.com/products/sql-development/sql-prompt/

Format "case" keyword also in uppercase
When formatting a case statement I want the case keyword to show in uppercase just like the when and end keywords. Now initially it uppercases CASE but when running SQL format it turns it to lowercase (bug?) See example below of the current format behaviour.
SELECT case WHEN 1 = 1 THEN 1
ELSE 0
END1 voteThis should be fixed in the latest build of Prompt

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:…

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

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

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.?THNX

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".

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

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)
1 voteSQL Prompt now supports suggestions from other databases when using the three part convention.
Kind Regards,

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...
1 voteSQL Prompt 6.3 resolves quoted identifiers correctly

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.
