Display the scale and precision (length) of data types like numeric and varchar in pop-up hint windows
Display the scale and precision (length) of data types like numeric and varchar in pop-up hint windows. This would be a very helpful feature to keep data types consistent throughout a database if one doesn't want to set up a user data type for each and every column that stores data types with additional parameters like, for instance, the scale and precision.

Auto generated INSERT statement is buggy with commas at start
The auto-generated INSERT statement BADLY MISALIGNS data when "Place commas at start" is enabled. I've listed all the settings to reproduce the issue at the end of this post.
The comma and associated info are on a separate line (almost useless - Worse when I need to delete some of the columns). See this example (generated by SQL Prompt Pro 5.1 - hyphens represent tabs due to HTML limitations):
INSERT INTO dbo.Test
---- (FirstName
---- , LastName
---- , LocationAddress
---- , LocationCity
---- , LocationState
---- , LocationZip)
VALUES (''
---- , -- FirstName - varchar(100)
---- ''

Shortcut for Switching Styles
Can you add "choose style" or "switch style" to the commands section, as a drop down, so that it can be added to the SQL PROMPT toolbar? Or possibly as a hot key menu option?
I switch styles often. There's the style I like to work in, a style suited for debugging, and the style that management likes the code to be posted with (in TFS.) Being able to switch between them is very helpful. but, going to SQL Prompt --> Options --> Styles --> Selecting Style "with the mouse" is time consuming.
Thanks for your consideration!

Fix SQL Case Formatting - Consistent Casing
I have been sent a large database schema create script from a legacy system.
The schema has been written in a case insensitive way.
So for example any variables in the stored procs in this create script have been written in multiple cases:
@pvariableNameOne
@pvariablenameOne
@pvariablenameOne
@pVariablenameOne
etc....The database was originally hosted on a Latin1GeneralCIAS Collation at server and database level.
The new hosting environment has been set to Latin1GeneralCSAS at server level, making it case sensitive.
Although we can set the database to Latin1GeneralCI_AS to make…10 votesThis is included in SQL Prompt 6.4, which you can download from http://www.red-gate.com/products/sql-development/sql-prompt/

Intellisense for User Defined Table Types
When using a variable of a user defined table type, make intellisense smart enough to recognize the data type and provide the columns similar to if it were an actual table.

Add constraints to column details on column hover
Small suggestion, but I would find this useful!
When hovering over a column you get a balloon that states:
[Table Name].[Column Name] [Data Type] (column)
If this could include 'NULL' or 'NOT NULL' this would be super :-)
Possibily even more, such as default values or identity status?[Table Name].[Column Name] [Data Type] [NULL/NOT NULL] (column)
SQL Prompt is an excellent bit of kit, top work guys!

Suggest only column names after a Table alias is typed in
If I have already typed in the alias name for a table, then suggestions after a period should always have the column names at the top. Sometimes, a code snippet shortcut or other unrelated item pops to the top of the list.
For example, if I am have typed in:
SELECT * FROM [sys].[tables] AS T
WHERE [T].isThen, the snippet for INFORMATIONSCHEMA shows at the top of the list. Since I already have put [T]., it should have the column names such as ismerged_published, etc. at the top of the list.

Insert Snippet Via Right Click
Really like snippets, but sometimes I'd prefer to add a snippet by looking through the list of those available.
Snippet shortcuts work well for things I do all the time, but I'd like to be able to use it as a repository for useful sql, and would therefore like a different way to insert, ie, via right click menu or even from the menu bar.

Format SQL - quick styles
I want to switch between TEAM and PERSONAL styles for Format SQL. It currently takes 8 mouse clicks to achieve this. Could you add a style lookup on the context menu or Red Gate tools menu and apply the style to the current document automatically as soon as it is selected.
I want my team to be able to work in their personal SQL format, but always save in the TEAM format.

semi colon placed on new line
Place semi-colon on new line.
I frequently format my statements as I'm developing them, but multiple times now I've started to add an Order By or some other clause after the auto-inserted semi-colon. I would like to see an option to place the semicolon on the line following the sql statement rather than directly after. This would enable me to start typing at the start of the next line without having to check if a semicolon had been added to the preceding line.
Example:
Select * From Table
Where A = 1; -- Semicolon added by formatting
Order By A9 votesThis feature is now included in the new SQL Prompt 8.0. For additional information see: http://documentation.red-gate.com/display/SP8/SQL+Prompt+8.0+release+notes

Add Comment Block to Surround With choices
Can you add a comment block /* */ to the Surround With choices? It would be of great use.
I also like the idea of adding Surround With options to the snippet editor where one could specify the before and after.
The example one person gave was Surround With ISNull( <highlighted column> ,0)
9 votesSQL Prompt 7 includes a $SELECTEDTEXT$ snippet placeholder which allows you to create surround with snippets that can be used through the Actions List (it also has a comment feature that’ll add — to the start of every line).

Give Format SQL the ability to convert X.Field1 AS NewFieldName format to FieldName = X.Field1
We have a lot of legacy code that is written as
SELECT Field1 as Name1, Field2 Name2 FROM Table X
(Sometimes they use AS when setting the alias, othertimes they do not).I would love the ability to convert this to
SELECT
Name1 = X.Field1
, Name2 = X.Field2
FROM Table XBoth having the ability to switch between Name = Value and Value AS Name and to auto add the alias to all fields.

Smart alias rename
It would be really nice to have a smart rename for aliases.
Example:select c.ID, c.Name, a.*
from Customers as c
join Adress as a on c.adressid = a.adressidUsage: I select alias "c", click right mouse(or shortcut) and choose Smart Rename and the new aliase should be changed everywhere I use it.
