  2. 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/.

  3. 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 OBJECT    ID(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

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. Restore from source control

    Today I search a long time for an option to restore a database directly from source control. I think there is no way, correct? Please add this feature.

  10. 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.

  11. 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?

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

  12. 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

  14. 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

  16. Spread connection categories marking to single objects

    Extend the connection categories marking feature so the objects (tables, views, procedures, etc) belonging to the connection also have the same marking as the corresponding connection.

  18. Display records quantity and add ability to skip current table during export

    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.

  19. better copy to clipboard feature of CSV data

    when i view a query result, i see all the records selected. i need a quick way to select these records and import into excel. the current copy to csv to clipboard separates the data with a semicolon. when i paste this to xls, it puts each row into cell A. i have to save the file and then import to xls and change the field separator to a semi colon.

    thanks
