1. Intellisense for tables in tempdb

   When joining, querying, or trying to expand table.* column names for a table in the tempdb database, Intellisense does not work even for tables that existed when starting dbForge.

   It would be nice to be able to have that feature even if it meant manually adding the table to the Intellisense cache.

3. Source support for the online (www.visualstudio.com) version of TFS.

   The visualstudio.com online version of TFS will not authenticate with Source Control. I have tried alternate credentials and using the tool from http://nakedalm.com/tools/vso-service-credential-viewer/.

4. Script generating with table rename and reinsert data

   Here is some table need to recreate and refill data after if. Recreation reason- identity increment has been changed.

   This script was generated:

   IF OBJECTID(N'dbo.EDDevicesSHADOW', 'U') IS NOT NULL
   AND OBJECTID(N'dbo.tmpdevartEDDevicesSHADOW', 'U') IS NULL
   EXEC sprename N'dbo.EDDevicesSHADOW', N'tmpdevartEDDevices_SHADOW', 'OBJECT'
   GO

   IF NOT EXISTS (
   SELECT 1 FROM sys.indexes
   WHERE name = N'PKEDDevicesSHADOW' AND objectid = OBJECTID(N'dbo.EDDevicesSHADOW'))
   AND EXISTS (
   SELECT 1 FROM sys.indexes
   WHERE name = N'PKEDDevicesSHADOW' AND objectid = OBJECTID(N'dbo.EDDevicesSHADOW'))
   EXEC sprename N'dbo.PKEDDevicesSHADOW', N'tmpdevartPKEDDevices_SHADOW', 'OBJECT'
   GO

   IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sys.columns WHERE name = N'SRowGUID' AND objectid = OBJECTID(N'dbo.EDDevicesSHADOW', 'U') AND defaultobjectid <> 0)
   AND EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sys.columns WHERE name = N'SRowGUID' AND objectid = OBJECTID(N'dbo.EDDevicesSHADOW', 'U') AND defaultobjectid <> 0)
   EXEC sprename N'dbo.DFEDDevicesSHADOWSRowGUID', N'tmpdevartDFEDDevicesSHADOWS_RowGUID', 'OBJECT'
   GO

   IF OBJECTID(N'dbo.EDDevicesSHADOW', 'U') IS NULL
   CREATE TABLE dbo.EDDevices_SHADOW (....
   ...

   As we can see some statements logic never fire. And we have incorrect database updating script.

5. Ability to set edition for trial mode.

   During the 30 day trial, the application runs in enterprise mode. It would be ideal to have the option to change the edition that it runs as so that we can easily see what features we gain/lose with each edition. For example: My company is looking at standard edition. I have to keep going to the website to see if the feature I am currently playing with comes with that edition. It is making my evaluation much more difficult.

8. Allow Backing up to UNC or Mapped network drive

   When creating a backup, I'd like the ability to store the .BAK file in a folder on another PC, either via a UNC file share (\servername\sharename\mybackup.bak) or a mapped drive (g:\backups\mybackup.bak). Right now dbForge Studio only lets you back up to the local hard drive of the server.

   You can amend the existing path and specify a mapped network drive right in the ‘Backup to disk’ list on the ‘General’ page of the Backup wizard.

9. structural highlighting

   It would be very nice if dbForge could have an option to jump to/from Begin/End statements. This allows us to clearly see where a structure begins/ends (in large scripts).
   Also faint lines connecting begin/end, ( and ), like DevExpress's CodeRush or Notepad++ would be very nice.
   Currently you have faint lines around select statements and so forth. That is very useful, but the suggestion above will enhance the usefulness of the current structural highlighting.

10. Open new tabs next to current one

    Opening up a new tab all the way at the end is so Internet Explorer (not in a good way). 99.999% of the time if I'm opening up a new tab it's intended to supplement my work in the tab I'm in, so visually it is most useful if it just starts up next to the current tab.

    The full object information is available in the Standard and Professional editions of the product.

14. 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.

17. Implement ALT Select

    You should be able to (when virtual space is enabled) hold ALT+Shift and using the up/down arrow keys, select in a vertical line. Allowing you to modify / add or remove characters on multiple lines simultaneously. Similar to how this works in notepad ++ / SSMS etc

18. password change on expiry

    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?

19. Redesign stored routine editor

    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 to me like there's some other command for 'run script' ... but I look and look and can't find it. I can't find a 'Run' button at all, or an 'Execute' button.

    Oh, wait, the SQL Toolbar is hidden by default. I show that, click the 'Execute' button - and get the dialog again!

    Why can't I just execute the script? Why is it forcing me to execute the procedure? Maddening.

    Worse -- I try to save my script and the program says 'Object has invalid source text and cannot be saved.' WHAT??? What if I am working on something and want to save it, even if it won't compile at the moment?

    I don't mean to sound snarky, but these problems make the program unusable, sorry! Back to SSMS for me.

20. Refresh option in Data Import wizard

    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
