Tab Groups
Add the ability to define groups of tabs that are used regularly for different jobs. For instance--there is a group of scripts I use for month end processing and a completely different set of scripts I typically have open for daily processing. Monthly statement preparation and troubleshooting comprise another set of scripts. I'd like to be able to name groups of tabs and retrieve them based on that named grouping, while still being able to go back to what I was doing before the "interruption" that caused me to need a different set of tabs open.

Interested in demand, so do vote on the suggestion if you would find it useful.

when aggregating add alias
when doing simple aggregation such as sum(column), it would be nice if the column name would be aliased after the agg automatically. if this is a single column in the function then make the alias the column name. when multiple then create square brackets and move cursor into bracket after closing agg with a ")"

Pin feature for quick info
When the mouse pointer is hovered over a table or stored procedure etc, an intelli-sense like link is shown which can clicked to bring up the object definition, which disappears when something else is selected.
My suggestion would be a pin feature, so that we can keep the object definition quick info box visible on the screen for reference instead of it disappearing.

Summarize Script by Comments
Allow an option in Summarize script to show summary by comments (for those of us that do a reasonable job of commenting code)! That would be more useful to a developer unfamiliar with specific complex code.

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),
);
GOCREATE TABLE dbo.Student
(
StudentID INT IDENTITY(1, 1)
PRIMARY KEY,
PersonID INT,
StudentNo VARCHAR(100)
);
GOCREATE TABLE dbo.Class
(
ClassID INT IDENTITY(1, 1)
PRIMARY KEY,
ClassName VARCHAR(100)
);
GOCREATE 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…17 votes -
Include MERGE statement in smart rename
When one would like to smart rename a column, the smart rename function does not update a MERGE statement. Could this be added to the smart rename feature?

Add an option to position SQL Prompt popup at a screen edge, rather than at the cursor position.
What is near the cursor tends to be data that should not be covered over. I need to see it in order to complete my statement.

Find unused columns in SELECT statements
Find unused columns in SELECT statements similar to finding unused variables.
Use case: I have some subqueries where I expanded SELECT * to now explicitly specify column names (best practice). However, only some of the columns and then used in the query process or results. I thus want the ability to have the unused columns removed from the SELECT statement.27 votes -

Sometime, my sql query script have too much nested condition and I need to see the indent guides line like this image:

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.

Support for PDW (Parallel Data Warehouse, aka APS)
Work at a company where we're adopting PDW. It would be great if I could get intellisense in PDW.

Load suggestions from sql files in Visual Studio/SSDT Projects
Prompt currently needs a database connection to retrieve objects/suggestions from, which it gets from a database project's "Target Connection String".
It would be better if prompt loaded suggestions directly from the sql files in the project without needing the database.

Compare the contents of two tabs as text
I would love to be able to compare the contents of two tabs (maybe by using a third party program that is run on the temp files).
This would save me the time of having to save them down to files before using a tool like diffmerge or...
Please consider this!
Thx for great products.

Intellisense for Linked Server connection to MySQL ODBC
I have been using SQL Prompt for awhile and one of the best feature I like about it is the fact that Intellisense works even on Linked Server to other MSSQL databases.
Recently however, I have set up Linked server to MySQL ODBC connections and I noticed that Intellisense is no longer returning the table names and column names in the predictive boxes.
I then tested this to other ODBC connection. I set up Firebird (DB2) and Oracle and Intellisense seems to be working for these (only for table names, not columns but that's better than nothing).
Is there a…

Improved Tab Navigation
Provide a better tab list for navigation than the one supplied by SSMS when there are many tabs open, for instance a resizable "navigation" window (or even a navigation tab) that easily allows filtering/grouping by server instance, database, user defined, etc.
As a complement to grouping tabs would be to allow naming, saving, closing, and opening of a "tab group" - related queries/script files that do not make up an SSMS "project" but are used for a particular purpose or go against a particular database, etc (user determines grouping criteria, see above). Furthermore, activating a tab group would bring its…

Replace all tabs with spaces
Setting the option to use spaces instead of tabs for intending (our house policy) only works for new tab presses.
I would like a simple action that would replace all tabs in the current document with spaces -- using the tab-to-spaces value as set in options. Sublime Text has this and I use practically every time I edit anything.57 votes -

Smart Rename to change case
sometimes I need to just change the casing of letters in a field name (e.g. a field has GUID and I want to make it Guid). smart rename does not allow me to change the name if the new name is exactly the same saying that a column with this name already exists.
so I change the name to GuidXXXX and then on the generated script remove the XXXX and the script runs just fine.
I think smart rename should not warn that the name exists if I am just changing casing of the name

Dockable Summarize Script window that allows select/run of script blocks.
Summarize script is sort-of useful as a way to see script blocks easily, but it will be BRILLIANT if it was a dockable (not modal) window that you very quickly select the script blocks in the editor.
I often select parts of a script or subqueries to run - if Summarize Script automatically selected them for me it would be a huge productivity boost: 1-click selection + F5 = AWESOME!

Choose to have ALTER instead of CREATE scripts
When I hover over an object and get the pop-up script for that object (proc/view/function) I would like the ability to have the script default to ALTER instead of CREATE.
99.9% of the time I manually have to edit the Create to be an Alter, this would save SO MUCH time.
