  2. On a multiple execution query, allow to customize the name of the results tabs, by default only shows the table name, useless if the tables are the same.

  3. When exporting data to a spreadsheet, it would be nice if it would include the SQL that produced the data in a separate spreadsheet tab. Toad does this and it's a nice feature because if you produce data for someone and they later want the same data, you can just have them send you the spreadsheet so you can run the exact same query for them again.

  5. You can change the filter and modify sort order. Would be nice if there was an option to flush these settings into a below query. For example, you have "SELECT * FROM table1", execute that, pick to sort by column1, column2, and also where column3 = "AAA", then you use that option - and get "SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE column3 = "AAA" ORDER BY column1, column2".

  6. I need to keep brackets around stored procedure and function names, but dbForge keeps removing them.
    Original
    CRATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[SprocNameSample] After saving my changes to
    the sproc:
    CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.SprocNameSample

    This behavior goes against the convention established at my workplace.

    Please allow us to keep the brackets in place when we save changes to Stored Procedures and Functions.

  8. When a query is executing for a long time, I sometimes switch to a different tab to continue other work. It would be great to have a status icon on the tab that shows whether a query is actively executing on that tab!

  10. I can go into detail upon this being developed. Sublime Text (and to a lesser degree visual studio) support multiple cursor editing which is a tremendous boost in efficiency of coding. At this time Dbforge SQL Studio doesn't support this. Recommend adding this functionality.

  11. When "show comments" is selected, both table descriptions and the names of relationship lines are displayed. The relationship names are not comments, and mostly clutter up an otherwise clear and concise diagram. Show comments should only show table "comments"; a separate button/option is needed to display relationship names for those who want to see them (I do not).

  14. When using the Data Compare if I click on the JSON Data Viewer, the differences between the 2 values are not shown, it would be wonderful if the differences between 2 JSON columns could be displayed with highlighting !

  16. Copy of Request from Oracle Features Page:
    dbForge Studio for SQL Server should provide users with the ability to split the editor window horizontally. This feature should be equivalent to that provided by tools such as Microsoft's Visual Studio. This feature will be specially helpful while working with large queries and result sets.

  17. Please enable SQL Studio features to work on Microsoft Azure SQL Data Warehouse and Analytics Platform (APS). Both APS and Azure SQL Data Warehouse have similar parallel DW architecture (MPP). Azure SQL Data Warehouse is the cloud version of on-prem APS appliance. We want a tool that can work with APS / Azure SQL Data Warehouse. Right now dbForge SQL Studio can connect to APS, but nothing works beyond that.

    Azure SQL Data Warehouse: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/sql-data-warehouse/sql-data-warehouse-overview-what-is

    Microsoft Analytics Platform System (APS): https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/analytics-platform-system

  19. Deliver with dbForge also small utility to make schema snapshot. Sometimes I need to get DB schema from customers and it would be nice to send them such utility. Them will create by this tool schema snapshot and send it to me. Then I could run schema compare in dbForge.
