  3. I would like to see the status bar colored like the tab. The tab coloring is already implemented so it would be nice to sync with the status bar also.

  4. if running an update/delete statement with no predicate on it, it would be nice if there was a warning to appear asking if I was sure I wanted to run the query.

    it would prevent accidental deletion/update of a full table when I was only after one row and I forgot to include the predicate.

  5. Please provide Code Completion for Synonyms!

    I have a development database where I created a synonym for every table and view in another database on another SQL server. When I use SQL Complete and type a SELECT statement for a synonym, column names do not appear.

    Please modify SQLComplete to provide column names when crafting a SQL statement for a synonym!

    Thanks!

  6. When running two or more SSMS instances there is an error that pops up pretty often saying: "Access to the path 'C:\Users\FFlintstone\AppData\Roaming\Devart\dbForge SQL Complete\docsessions-journal.db' is denied."

  7. Given that MS is going the route of eventually requiring terminating semi-colons on statements, it would be useful to have an option to do that for me.

    With dbForge SQL Complete v5.6.146, you can right-click in the SQL document and select ‘Insert Semicolons’ from the popup menu.

  8. Requesting a tweak to the indentation level settings for subqueries.

    If I have it set to have closing parenthesis on a new line, I'd like the option to align the whole thing with the starting parenthesis, and this to be the alignment point of the subquery. Increases legibility when lots of subqueries are involved.

    Targeted format:
    select
    1
    ,2
    ,3
    from
    table11 t

    inner join table2 t2
    on t.value = t2.value
    
    inner join ( -- starting parenthesis
    
                select
                    1
                    ,2
                    ,3
                from 
                    subquerytable3
                where
                    test = test
                ) f on t.value = v.value
                    and t.value2 = v.value2

    test =…

  9. Have the option to set max length for concatenation string. I've seen this implemented in SQL Beautifier and it helped legibility on long strings.

    User should be able to choose max length of characters before wrapping begins, then wrapping begins with + at beginning of line.

    It changes string from long string that user must scroll or have word wrap affect.

    BEFORE:
    ,comment_string = 'Sample text' + 'Sample text' + 'Sample text' + 'Sample text' + 'Sample text'

    to:

    ,comment_string = 'Sample text' + 'Sample text'
    + 'Sample text' + 'Sample text'
    + 'Sample text'

    This would be great to…

  10. Multiple tables in the join statement are indented correctly, but no option to add a line break between the table joins. I find this line break to help legibility when dealing with many tables in a join.

    I think adding the option "break before JOIN keyword" would solve that issue, and not require evaluating for subquery or further complex on statement conditions.

  12. When running sp_who2 I can see tasks for "dbForge SQL Complete" for each user running SSMS even when it's not doing anything. (I guess the connection is pooled between each request that the application needs to make?)

    Anyway, our admins don't like to see all of these jobs just hanging around doing nothing, especially on our live servers. Any chance of turning off your connection pooling?

  13. I spend most of my time working in databases that (unfortunately) use _ underscores to separate words. For example, a table might be called VehicleRidershipActivity instead of VehicleRidershipActivity. This causes the "Proper Case" option to not work on any of these table names, column names, sproc names, etc..

    The worst part is that even if I type them correctly or paste them in when they were correct, they will get "corrected" to all lower-case letters after the first letter (for example VehicleRidershipActivity will be changed to Vehicleridershipactivity).

    If this is intended, please consider changing.…
