  1. if you write part of a column name, intellisense gives you a list to chose from, but automatically selects the first row, so you can confirm the choice by pressing TAB. That works in WHERE, ON, GROUP BY, ORDER BY statement, but not in SELECT. I am quite sure that in one old Release this worked. not sure, why it does not anymore.
    Right now in SELECT you have to write part of the column name and then use cursor down to select the first item on the list, then press tab.

  2. It appears that I can't export the font and colors settings in Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors. This would be a great feature addition that would allow me to export my personal theme design and apply it again whenever I do an upgrade or install the software again.

  3. When we do an import for dbf file, the first file is ready to create a new table with the file name for the table's name. At the end, when the import is done, we can click on "Import more". We select a new dbf file but it tries to import in an existing table or the previous table name and a number at the end. It must always be the file name for the table name when we want to import to a new table.
    Thanks a lot!

  4. In SSMS, there is a feature called Registered servers, which allows for creation of groups of servers eg. Development, which contains sql server instances for all development servers.
    With this option, a user can execute the same script against all the servers in the group.
    This can be useful in a scenario such as if you need to execute a query against your database in each of your retail locations.
    I would like to see this feature implemented in dbForge Studio IDE.

  8. llow to group/organize Functions or Stored Procedures within folders created by the user. This way, it is possible to group by functionality.
    Over time these kind of objects pile up and become increasely difficult to manage.

  9. If a DML query contains an error, the file is not saved. It is absurd to have to go into Notepad to save a file.

  10. Hi, we use a lot of json caluses in our db procedures e.g.:
    select
    *
    into
    #parcel_data
    from
    openjson(@parcelData, '$')
    with
    (
    "ParcelId" int '$.ParcelId',
    "ParcelTypeId" int '$.ParcelTypeId',
    "ShipmentId" int '$.ShipmentId',
    "BarCode" nvarchar(100) '$.BarCode'
    );
    Why don't You prepare such a helper in dbForge Studio ? It could be located on the level of "Generate script as" menu for each table for instance. To have the possibility to prepare our own plugins would be also a good idea.

  13. When a value is changed in the Data Editor, the Data Editor logic compares the value with the existing value and makes a decision whether to update the existing value based on whether the new value is considered different. Currently, this equality comparison is case insensitive, which is a bug. It must be case sensitive. SSMS will update data based upon consideration for case sensitivity, but not the Data Editor.

  16. Shortcut Ctrl +Alt+o is in conflict with windows Alt+o . So you can't get the Polish letter 'ó' what is annoying when try to comment your code in Polish not only because the letter, but especially because jumping out of your current context. Suggestion: option for you own definition of the short cut.

  18. Please add a space automatically after accepting an intellisense suggestion.

    For example after a table name, when typing "w", "WHERE" appears, when hitting tab it adds that word to the text area, yet I need to then manually add a space. Why not add it as part of the intellisense (as we're used with VS) so I can simply keep on typing seamlessly?

  19. Typing "order" after a table name brings up the intellisense with "ORDER BY", yet when hitting tab to accept, only "ORDER" gets entered in the text area, the only way to get both words is by hitting Enter. Why not on tab like I'm used to?
