1. Search Results in Grid Mode

   Find all occurrences of your search string in the results in datagrid mode. I know I should and could do this in SQL but sometime it is handle to find the customers name in a large set of rows.

2. Bring Back Tab History

   Tab History NEVER should have been replaced with SQL History, a very poorly received roll-out that angered many paying customers. The fact that Red-gate felt it necessary to re-brand the thing is indication enough that it wasn't simply an update to Tab history but a replacement. That said when you do something like this in a product people are paying for it should be rolled out as something new and not something that replaces an existing beloved feature.

   Perhaps after enough updates SQL history will be usable and thus tab history unnecessary but there's no telling how many updates that will take if it's ever doable so I want to see Tab History returned and SQL History as a separate feature. As long as SQL history is not optional I may never upgrade SQL Prompt again. Perhaps it's time to check out some of your competitors products.

   Let the paying customer decide what they want to use!

3. SQL Prompt Code Visualization (Like Flow Chart)

   SQL Prompt should be able to Visualize the Code and represent the code like Flow Chart.
   This Feature will be very useful while working with heavy Stored Procedures.

   The Sample Code Visualization image is shared below:

6. Script comma separated list column names from the results grid.

   It would be great to be able to script out a comma separated list of the column names from the result grid. Not the data values, but the colum names. Quite often i run queries that return columns from multiple tables and want to create an insert statement with named columns from that result set.

   A competitor has that capability and I use it dozens of times a day. Either by selecting all column names from the result set or just highlighting the ones that you want.

7. Replace all inline comments with block comments

   It would be really useful to be able to choose the default comment style as either inline -- or comment block /* */, and have that style be applied when executing an auto-format on the script.

8. Format dynamic SQL

   We use a lot of dynamic SQL. I'd like to be able to format dynamic SQL that is in a string, eg. and NVARCHAR. e.g.

   Input: DECLARE @sql NVARCHAR = '

   SELECT foo from bar where foobar = ''foobarred''
   '

   I'd like to be able to highlight the text inside the NVARCHAR for formatting. SQL Prompt would need to handle doubled quotation marks as in my example above.

9. Comment Word Wrap

   Hi!

   I would be nice to have the option to enable word wrap for the comments as well.
   The number of maximum characters for the comment should be aligned with "Wrap lines longer than" for SQL statements.

10. Add a new "Modify" menu item when right clicking views in Object Explorer

    To get an ALTER script for an existing stored proc or UDF you just need to right click it in Object Explorer and select Modify. For views you can't do this. You have to select "Script view as.." then "Alter to..." then "New query editor window". It's only two extra mouse clicks but they are two very annoying mouse clicks! I was hoping this would have come back for SQL2012 as you used to be able to do this in SQL2000, but it hasn't. Redgate to the rescue?

11. Code Analysis Disable Rule for specific cases

    Hi,

    it would be extremely useful to allow the user to disable a code analysis rule for specific cases and not just on a global scope.

    E.g.
    cast(cast(0 as binary) pops up the issue BP008 (CAST/CONVERT to var types without length) which my be correct for certain cases but not always.

    It would be very hand if I could tell the analyzer to not give any warning for this single line, perhaps by adding a pseudo comment like --##BP008 or similar.

    This comment would temporarily disable the warning for this single line/case but not for the rest of a script.

    Perfect would be, if I could add more than one pseudo comment to disable more than one code, e.g. --##BP008, BP007, BP006.

    Thanks,
    Michael

12. Build an interface to update all Redgate Tools at once.

    I wanted to put this one level up (all Redgate), but did not see a way to do that.

    When you guys release an update, I do not see any choice but to open each tool, one at a time, and check to see if it was updated. There should be one interface that I can open that will check every product I have installed and install the appropriate updates. The current is much more time consuming than it should be and extremely inconvenient. If you have such a tool now, it should be easier to find.

    I thought Redgate use to do this, but if it did, i don't see it anymore. Please consider this for a near future update.

13. Allow Multiple Snippet Folders

    Hi, I think it would be useful to add support for multiple snippet folders to the SQL Prompt - Snippet Manager. I would use this by connecting to a set share of snippets that our team uses as well as having my own set of snippets that may be useful only to me.

    Thanks for considering,
    James

14. Expand a view or views referenced in a query

    I think it would be great if SQL Prompt had the functionality to expand a view that is used in a query. So if you have this schema:
    CREATE TABLE dbo.Person
    (
    PersonID INT IDENTITY(1, 1)
    PRIMARY KEY,
    LastName VARCHAR(30),
    FirstName VARCHAR(30),
    );
    GO

    CREATE TABLE dbo.Student
    (
    StudentID INT IDENTITY(1, 1)
    PRIMARY KEY,
    PersonID INT,
    StudentNo VARCHAR(100)
    );
    GO

    CREATE TABLE dbo.Class
    (
    ClassID INT IDENTITY(1, 1)
    PRIMARY KEY,
    ClassName VARCHAR(100)
    );
    GO

    CREATE TABLE dbo.ClassRoster
    (
    ClassID INT,
    StudentID INT
    );

    GO

    CREATE VIEW dbo.Students
    AS
    SELECT
    S.StudentID,
    P.LastName,
    P.FirstName,
    S.StudentNo
    FROM
    dbo.Person AS P
    JOIN dbo.Student AS S
    ON P.PersonID = S.PersonID;
    GO

    CREATE VIEW dbo.Classes
    AS
    SELECT
    C.ClassID,
    C.ClassName,
    CR.StudentID
    FROM
    dbo.Class AS C
    JOIN dbo.ClassRoster AS CR
    ON C.ClassID = CR.ClassID;
    GO

    Then you have this query:

    SELECT
    S.StudentID,
    S.LastName,
    S.FirstName,
    S.StudentNo,
    C.ClassID,
    C.ClassName,
    C.StudentID
    FROM
    dbo.Students AS S
    JOIN Classes AS C
    ON S.StudentID = C.StudentID;

    You could right-click or have a keyboard combination that say Expand Views and the query becomes:

    SELECT
    S.StudentID,
    S.LastName,
    S.FirstName,
    S.StudentNo,
    C.ClassID,
    C.ClassName,
    C.StudentID
    FROM
    (
    SELECT
    S.StudentID,
    P.LastName,
    P.FirstName,
    S.StudentNo
    FROM
    dbo.Person AS P
    JOIN dbo.Student AS S
    ON P.PersonID = S.PersonID
    ) AS S
    JOIN (
    SELECT
    C.ClassID,
    C.ClassName,
    CR.StudentID
    FROM
    dbo.Class AS C
    JOIN dbo.ClassRoster AS CR
    ON C.ClassID = CR.ClassID
    ) AS C
    ON S.StudentID = C.StudentID;

    I would find this useful when working with third party products or when coming in new to an environment as it would immediately show me the places where there are multiple references to the same table or where a view is providing some layer of filtering that I'm not aware of.

    I think it would be great if SQL Prompt had the functionality to expand a view that is used in a query. So if you have this schema:
    CREATE TABLE dbo.Person
    (
    PersonID INT IDENTITY(1, 1)
    PRIMARY KEY,
    LastName VARCHAR(30),
    FirstName VARCHAR(30),
    );
    GO

    CREATE TABLE dbo.Student
    (
    StudentID INT IDENTITY(1, 1)
    PRIMARY KEY,
    PersonID INT,
    StudentNo VARCHAR(100)
    );
    GO

    CREATE TABLE dbo.Class
    (
    ClassID INT IDENTITY(1, 1)
    PRIMARY KEY,
    ClassName VARCHAR(100)
    );
    GO

    CREATE TABLE dbo.ClassRoster
    (
    ClassID INT,
    StudentID INT
    );

    GO

    AS
    SELECT

15. Format SQL Code on opening file

    It would be awsome if there was an option that would format an SQL Script automatically after opening it in SSMS / VS. So if you load a file it would be formatted automatically with your selected formatting style. It would be great too if this auto format option could be switched on and off in the Options.

16. Right-click highlighted table and "Create Alias"

    When I find I want to define my own table Alias within SQL Prompt, I must go to the menu, click SQL Prompt, scan down for "Options", scan down for "Aliases", click "New" and then do something useful.

    Please obviate ALL THIS, by giving a right-click fastpath to "Add Alias" while in the script editor. If the table name happens to already exist, please position the list at it (just in case SQL Prompt had issues...)

    It is very laborious to have to navigate through all these clicks just to add an alias while in the code.

18. Fix SQL History

    User of SQL Prompt for some years now. Tab History was a "killer feature". I often have multiple instances of SSMS open, with a number of ad-hoc queries open not worth saving. When I log back in, for years, WITHOUT FAIL, ALL my queries, from ALL instances would re-open.

    Since "upgrading" to SQL; History, I am lucky to get one or two re-open. Complete pot luck. Even searching for known keywords to get them open again is hit and miss.

    I am losing a lot of productivity due to this downgrade. I have yet to experience any benefit from the additional features of SQL History (although I am sure that might happen).

19. Tab history remove duplicates scripts

    Have the ability to delete duplicate scripts in the Tab History. Example I may open a stored procedure to look at it or modify then close and then it is stored in the Tab History as Closed. But then in a few days or so I open the same store procedure and do the same thing it is now in the Tab History also. I have made no changes to either day it is open then closed but, it's in the Tab History twice. Now think about this over a few months. That Tab History grows with duplicate scripts.

20. Suggestion for THIS site

    This is a Format SQL request; not for SQL Prompt, but rather for this website. I don't know how many hundreds of examples have been posted where the author spent quite a bit of time formatting an example, only to have the posted code totally bastardized. Have at least a <code> tag that would present the content within the tag in a fixed-width font and not remove leading spaces. I've seen some posts where the poor soul has tried 2-3 times to get their poin t across only to have the presented code rendered in a way that completely loses intent.
