  1. I would love to be able to right-click on the column headers in a result set and "Copy Column Headers", say to a comma-delimited string. I found this super-useful back in my days using MySQL Query Browser especially when writing INSERT INTO code.

    There is the ‘Copy with Headers’ feature.

    Also, there is the ‘Generate Script As’ feature with the help of which you can generate the INSERT statement.

    The ability to generate script for multiple objects will be implemented in the Generate Script Wizard as soon as dbForge Studio for SQL Server, v3.8 is available to download.

  4. I have database with many table and when I must create a new table I must move in the top of the database to select table and after make right botton to create a new table and this is not quickly.If I can have the same possibility also in the table context menu this could be nice.

  5. Hello
    I'm testing the free beta version of you and would like to congratulate you for the excellent product quality.
    Opportunity to suggest adding a feature that will certainly add more value to the product:
    - When you select an object in a SQL text (eg procedure) command, enable a new menu option to edit it. If a table, to list its structure. Thus, it avoids the need to access the Database Explorer and get the corresponding object.

    Such a feature is present in the Standard Edition of dbForge SQL Complete and is called ‘Go To Definition’. You can access it by pressing F12.

  6. In Database Explorer, navigate to Database - Security - Schema. Right click and create a 'New Schema' option.

  7. Hello

    The new version is more stable.
    The quality of implementation is excellent.

    Congratulations.

    Just like to make a reservation:

    In Beta had a property in Connection tab: Document Category.
    No more this option?

    thank you

    The feature is available in dbForge Studio for SQL Server, v.3.8. Please uninstall a beta version and install the released one.

  8. I would like to be able to select all column in results grid, like you can do with row. Click on column header now only toggles sorting mode or filter. I need this option often to copy data to another query, or excel. SSMS has this feature so I got used to it.

    This can be performed with the ‘Export Data’ feature that can be invoked from the popup menu of the grid or from the grid’s toolbar.

  9. I have a SQL Complete licence, the Format option are totally imcomplete here, if SQL Complete exist merge snippets and format profile

  10. It is often quite hard to know that an update or insert statement, or DDL statement has actually happened. Data from a previous SELECT statement remains steadily there, and the only hint is to watch the right-hand corner and actually see this change from Ready to Executing to Ready - but if you miss that, even the Output window is not definitive. A status bar PER TAB - like Management Studio - including the last number of rows affected, the last execution duration IN THAT TAB, etc. would be immensely helpful.

  12. Suggestion to redesign the visual stored procedure editor of dbForge.

    Uh... there are a number of major misses here in 4.0.

    I login to a database, expand the Programmability section, then right-click a procedure and select 'Edit Procedure.' The script that is generated is a CREATE PROCEDURE method, which out of the box won't work because the procedure already exists.

    Okay, so I change it to ALTER PROCEDURE and press F5 to rebuild the procedure. I get a dialog box prompting me for parameters! Oh, I guess F5 means RUN the procedure? No, that's not what I want. It looks…

  13. If import data failed (eg duplicity in key, cannot save importlog to C:\ etc), then BACK button is disabled. Therefore after fixing the problem, we have to start import wizard from scratch
    It would be perfect simply click BACK button and try again

    If data import failed, you can leave the wizard open, fix the problem and click ‘Import More’ on the last page of the wizard. All import settings will be restored.

  15. When selecting a data source, it would be nice to see the quantity of the records in the table.

    Also, when performing export, add the ability to skip the current table.

    INSERT INTO #Table1 (c1,c2) VALUES (1, SYSUTCDATETIME ());

    This can be setup as follows:

    1. Select ‘Tools → Options’ from the main menu. The ‘Options’ window opens.
    2. Navigate to the ‘Data Editor → Formatting’ branch.
    3. Select ‘DateTime’ from the ‘Data type’ dropdown menu.
    4. In the ‘Predefined Formats’ list, select ‘General date/time (longtime with microseconds)’.
    5. Click ‘OK’.

  18. When I use the import wizard it would be handy to have a refresh option. If I'm partway through the wizard and decide I'd like to create a table manually, I can't then specify that table to import to without closing the wizard, force a refresh and start all over again

  20. My dba set a security policy to reset the users sql password once a month.
    When i log in using MS-SSMS, when the change password is due, the application tells me that the password is expired already and then offers me to change my sql password immediately.
    DbForge just tells me that i cannot use my old password.
    Can you add this change password on expiry feature please?

    Now, the updated view editor contains the text of the view as well as the visual representation of the query on the diagram.
