  1. refresh button when restore database

    I need refresh button when restore database and browse folder, sometimes I forgot to extract the BAK files into folder.
    In current release, I have to cancel the wizard, extract backup files, and start over the restore wizard.
    If there is a REFRESH button in browse folder it make easier to restore, I just click the button and choose the backup file without start over the wizard.

    thanks

  2. Virtual Relationships Between Databases On Database Diagram

  3. Tear off tab needs to account for the task bar on secondary monitors

    On Windows 10, when you tear off a query window and drop it on a secondary monitor, it will cover up the task bar on that monitor when the window is maximized. If you put it on the main monitor and the main app on the secondary, then both windows will maximize properly and not cover the task bar.

  4. Object Explorer details (Data space used, index space used, row count...)

    In SQL Server Managment Studio there is an view: Object explorer details. Where I can see details for all tables in my database. And for example I can sort tables by row count. Similar view in DbForge has fixed columns: Schema, Principal, Partitioned, Create Date, Modify Date, filegroup, Change tracking, Lock_Escalation. But there is no possibility to add extra columns especially: Data space used, index space used, row count.

  5. Save comparison without running it

    After running a data comparison, I want to edit the comparison and make some changes, then save the comparison... without having to re-run it first. This means being able to click "Save" while the "New Data Comparison" dialog is open before clicking "Compare".

  8. Cannot modify sql login associated with an active directory group

    Sql logins associated with an active directory group (windows authentification) are shown in data explorer's security/users node, but not listed in the security manager.
    Thus, if you double click on it in the explorer "object does not exits" pop up and the user cannot be edited.

  9. Custom Right-Click Scripts

    Add the ability to create Custom Right-Click Scripts to perform on a given table from the Database Explorer window. Either under Truncate Table. Or as part of Generate Script As...

    I frequently need Select count(*) from xxxxx as well as a few others. It'd be great if I could add my own!

  11. save column settings on multiple results queries

    Currently it appears column customization (sort order, filter, column width) is only preserved between executions for the first tab and only when it is the active tab then the queries are run. Would be nice if it was preserved for all tabs.

    In one query window:

    SELECT Data= 1 UNION SELECT 2 UNION SELECT 3;

    SELECT Data= 'A' UNION SELECT 'B' UNION SELECT 'C';

    Run the query and the results are put on to results at tabs. If you change sort orders for the second tab and re-run the sort order is lost. If you change the sort order of…

  15. Columns Header In Clipboard

    Hi,

    it would be great, if we could get the column names in the clipboard when we copy the results of a comparaison.

    Use case:
    Launch a comparaison, see what is Only in Source, Only in target
    Copy the results of the grid, paste in an excel file, you'll get the datas but no column name

  19. XML exported or XML Viewer data saved pretty printed

    At this time the XML viewer displays XML data pretty printed, but as soon as it is saved to an XML file the pretty print is lost and it turns into one long line. I believe that exporting XML data has the same result. My workaround is to put all the XML data in the clipboard and have Notepad++ save it as XML file and it saves the pretty printing. This workaround is not desirable as it is extra steps that should not be needed.

    Please allow an option in the XML viewer (and exporting) to save/export XML data "pretty…
