column alias
I would like an option for column aliases. I would like to choose between = or AS for the "Alias sign".
The formatting should be done based on this "alias sign" and also be aligned by the alias sign.I prefer the = sign , but formatting doesn't seem to accept that as an alias now.
Example before formatting:
SELECT colA as [Column A], columnB as [ColumnLonger B]
FROM Table_1 tFormatting when "=" is used as "Alias sign";
SELECT [Column A] = t.colA
,[ColumnLonger B] = t.columnB
FROM Table_1 tFormatting when "AS" is used as "Alias sign":
SELECT…

Global Refactor (rename) tables/views/procs in dependent views/procs
SQL Complete has an option to do renames within the current script. It would be great to support refactoring (rename) tables/views/procs/functions in dependent views/procs/funtions.
For instance:
CREATE TABLE dbo.Test (a INT, b INT, CONSTRAINT [PKdboTest] PRIMARY KEY (a))
GOCREATE VIEW dbo.vwTest
AS
SELECT * FROM dbo.Test
GOCREATE PROC dbo.spUpdateTest
(
@a int,
@b int
)
as
UPDATE dbo.Test
SET b = @b
WHERE a = @a
GOOn a separate screen (or from SSMS object explorer) choose refactor and change table name from "dbo.Test" to "dbo.GoodTableName" and SQL Complete would identify all objects where dbo.Test is…

Scrollbar highlighting
When you select something in the SQL code and it selects all the other instances of it - e.g. a variable name, can you place coloured markers in the scroll bar of all the selected items, also for when you do a find as well. This is really useful feature in visual studio.

Insert missing square brackets when formatting selection or whole script.
We have a policy of always putting square brackets around identifiers in SQL Scripts. When using SQL Complete we have the option turned on to always use square brackets and this works fine when scripting brackets are inserted for us just fine. However when we open a legacy script and format the document, missing square brackets are not inserted so we have to manually go through the script to add them.
If Always On is selected for square brackets then I press Ctrl+K Ctrl+D to format the document I would like to have missing square brackets inserted, that is all…

Saved Filters in SSMS
Within SSMS, allow for the saving of filters.
Justification:
Particularly within large databases, often there is a reoccurring need to work with just a subset of tables. Sometimes, within different contexts, the particular subset changes. Being able to easily apply commonly used filters can allow increased productivity by eliminating frictional work (e.g. scrolling and hunting). Additionally, when filters across object types can be applied, there can be a lot of power. For example, being able to filter a particular set of SQL Agent Jobs, associated tables, and procedures related to those jobs, allows a troubleshooting developer to quickly set into…5 votes -
Refactoring feature: Add Quotes to names
it would be very helpful if you have an option that encloses object names in quotes. The option should allow you to specify the quote characters to use (brackets vs quotes).
This would transform references like:
dbo.myTable
To
[dbo].[myTable]It would also be nice if this option could be set to be applied during auto-complete.

Improve standard filtering in Object Explorer
The standard filtering in Management Studio Object Explorer is rudimentary at best. I lack the ability to select multiple values, and use drop downs to do so. Or even better, use complex queries (with and/or/not), and maybe even save and reuse these for daily administration (much like snippets).

Option to Format Index Statements
As a user it would be helpful to be able to customize how INDEX statements are formatted.
For example, it would be nice to be able to configure the indent for the second line where the "INCLUDE" statement is as shown below:
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX [IXTableColumn] ON [dbo].[Table] ([Column1],[Column2], [Column3])
INCLUDE ([Column4],[Column5],[Column6])
GOCurrently, SQL Complete formats the above text pushing the second line all the way to the left as shown below:
CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX [IXTableColumn] ON [dbo].[Table] ([Column1],[Column2], [Column3])
INCLUDE ([Column4],[Column5],[Column6])
GOI am unable to find a current setting to indent the second…

AutoComplete table joins
Have the ability to train intellisense when joining tables to learn which tables join together.
so that in the future you can just type:
"select * from employees e
left join "and intellisense gives a drop down list of related tables, which when selected writes out the table name AND join columns.
i.e.:
"select * from employees e
left join "
and intellisense suggests: "manager m on m.managerID = e.managerID"4 votes -
multiple row tab
Provide for MULTIPLE TAB ROWS like TabsStudio has. This way there's no need for the file menu drop-down list, no need to manually pin tabs, the tabs keep stable order.
Thanks

New Query Template
It can possibly be done with the 'snippet', but when I hit Ctrl- N in SSMS, it would be great if 'my' standard template opened. This allows me have the necessary 'set' options pre configured etc

Add an option to group database entities by schema rather than flat alphabetical.

Add setting for color of "highlight Occurrences" or document where this is control in SMMS.
There is a choice on Options > General named Highlight Occurrences. I don't like the way this looks with my color scheme. Suggestion: allow me to change the default highlight color or document where that color comes from in SMMS's color settings.

Add an option to Execute Current Batch
Add an option to Execute Current Batch, similar to Execute Current Statement, but highlight and run everything between the current batch separators.
It's a feature I've seen that RedGate SQLPrompt provides and it would be useful to have the ability to run everything within the current batch without having to highlight it all first and then running the selected text.3 votes -
Filter autocomplete list by any substring, not just word initials
Today, SQL Complete supports filtering the AutoComplete list by typing the initials of CamelCase identifiers. In Resharper, you can type any sequence of characters from the member you are looking for, and the autocomplete list is filtered by any members which contain the character you typed, as long as they appear in the same order you typed. This makes it easier to find what you are looking for, because it's easier to type parts of words than to remember the exact words and their initials.

Performance when starting visual studio
When starting visual studio with SQL Complete, it takes 15 seconds more to open Visual studio.
Maybe you can change to load the data after visual studio is opened? That way the delay is not visible to the user.

Override capitalisation of certain keywords
I like to capitalise 'begin' and 'end' in lower case so my code looks like this:
IF @Return = 1
begin
SELECT Name FROM Table
end
ELSE
begin
SELECT 0
endThe begin and end words should not be as bold as the sql statements, a bit like curly brackets are.

Format Comments
I would like to format the comments that appear at the end of a line as part of the "stack columns" and "Table View".
The stacking and table view for comments should have similar behavior as the column and alias view. They appear column aligned.
Example (because posting destroys the formatting of my post, I'll use "." for spacing):
SELECT
.....column1.....AS a.........-- CommentA
.....col2............AS b........ -- CommentB
.....col3........... AS abc.....-- CommentCThank you. Jake.

auto alias with full table name or allow rename for non-aliased names
This will interface beautifully with the rename option that is included with SQL complete. Frequently i'll copy code sets that use two different objects or start as table reads and later become a read from a temp table. being table to change the "from" and easily being able to the rename the alias/table to the new source and have all other references to it be updated as well would be great

Creating relation mappings for databases that may not be changed
In our company we are working with SAP Business One (SBO). SBO has a fixed database stucture which may not be changed at all. Relations are not directly built into the database.
A custom relation mapping feature would help us with correct suggestions for the databases while still maintaining the database structure as it is.
