  1. Better performance for large SQL documents

    For large documents, say 100,000 lines of insert statements, shut down all language classification, lexing, parsing, etc services during a Find and Replace operation so that one isn't waiting forever for the process to complete. In my experience I waiting forever and had to kill the process. Shut down the services, perform the operation, then turn them back on.

  2. bug on current sql studio.

    since the new version, quite often my sql queries execute fine, however the execution timer keeps ticking away and then the connection to the db breaks. The only way to get it back is reload the query or restart forge. very annoying.

  5. DB Forge crashing

    Probably 2-3 times a day DB Forge crashed. Quite often it does this while i'm not even using it. All I get is the windows 'dbForge Studio for SQL Server has stopped working' dialog (the one which has the Debug and Close Program buttons). This has started happening after the last update

  8. Restore from source control

  10. Unable to fix bugs

    I have reported a few bugs over the past few months, and although you are good at responding and looking into this there seems to be a few bugs that you can't seem to get right.

    1. Upgrading. It is always painful. Links that you publish to download the upgrade don't work. There are always licencing/activation problems, etc. I upgraded yesterday as advised (having gone through the normal pain to find the right place to download), and everything seemed to work. Yet today I am asked to enter my activation key yet again. Why can't you just make the upgrade seamless?…

  11. Licensing

    Every time I update db Forge I end up in the situation where it asks me for my license. This is so annoying because I then end up in this loop where I have to find my license details, enter them in, get an error message because it is not happy with it, then contact you guys to get a new license. Why can't you just remember the license and not ask me for it again until it expires. I have a team of developers who ran the update this morning and are now unable to do any work until…

  13. Allow connection to SQL Server running on Ubuntu

    I was able to connect to SQL Server running on Ubuntu with SQL Server Management Studio. Be nice to do it with dbForge. Got the error message that the version of SQL Server wasn't supported when I tried.

  14. Sticky "Object has invalid source text and cannot be saved"

    Often, when editing functions, and I try to save something with invalid syntax, I will get a pop-up with "Object has invalid source text and cannot be saved" instead of the useful list of errors with line numbers. (However, the product still often red-underlines a problematic portion in these cases.)

    That annoyance is separately reported here:

    https://devart.uservoice.com/forums/177009-dbforge-studio-for-sql-server/suggestions/7488676--object-has-invalid-source-text-improve-error-i

    However, sometimes, after getting this once, every successive save will fail with that error, even after the problem has been resolved. Copying and pasting into SSMS will verify that it is correct. Then closing and re-opening the function editor window will allow me…

    This can be achieved as follows:

    1. Select ‘Tools → Options…’ from the main menu. The ‘Options’ window opens.
    2. Navigate to the ‘Environment → Keyboard’ branch.
    3. Type ‘Sql.ExecuteCurrent’ in the ‘Show Commands Containing’ field.
    4. Select the found ‘Sql.ExecuteCurrent’ command in the list below.
    5. In the ‘Use new shortcut in’ field, select ‘Text Editor’.
    6. Set the focus in the ‘Press shortcut keys’ field and press the required key combination.
    7. Click the ‘Assign’ button.
    8. Click ‘OK’.

  18. Autocomplete doesn't work if table belongs to schema and no alias or schema name used in join.

    Example:
    select *
    from Schema1.Table1 join Schema1.Table2 on Table1.[AutoComplete doesn't show table fields]

    select *
    from Schema1.Table1 T1 join Schema1.Table2 T2 on T1. [AutoComplete works properly]

  19. Add ability to enter product key on trial versions

    Not a big deal, but it would be nice to be able to just enter a product key, instead of having to download a new version.
