  1. SQL Complete (or SSMS) does a nice job of highlighting like words. Put the cursor on a table alias, and all occurences are highlighted for example.

    Is it possible to edit all of these like Delphi's Sync Edit feature? Sometimes I would like to edit all occurrences and other times, just those in the highlighted text.

  2. so when typing a query that has a JOIN, SQL Complete does a great job guessing what to join ON. However, after typing the ON keyword in the join statement, SQL Complete pops up with list of candidates, and the first one in the list is usually what I want, but it is NOT SELECTED. so I have to take my hand off the keyboard, and select it (or hit the down arrow key), then hit TAB.

    Why interrupt the devs flow? Just auto select the first one in the list!

  3. There are a couple ways of doing this now in Visual Studio (Microsoft's own Productivity Power Tools 2012 is one), but none that work in SMSS. I would dearly love the ability, after custom-sorting my tabs, to be able to move forward and backwards through them in the displayed order.

    Currently you can only move through your tabs in the order you last clicked on them -- similar to Alt-Tab in Windows -- but not necessarily in the order they appear visually. I'm thinking Firefox/Chrome/Internet Explorer-type "sensible" tab movement.

    devart will be my eternal hero if SQL Complete had the…

  5. SQL Treeo offers some great functionality that really should be integrated with a tool like this, ie dynamic grouping of objects. When dealing with lots of objects in object explorer, it would be amazing to have functionality to group node objects by schema or by custom designation. I have a free open source version I'm using called SSMS Extender 2012, but again, implementation by SQL Complete would be a great feature and I guarantee would make more folks consider your product!

  6. Already the best formating add-in, but please make it truly complete with these few additions (some are from ApexSQL Refactor) to make it really perfect, thanks.

    • Line break immediately after WHEN, WHILE, IF keywords (to be more consistent like WHERE, HAVING, ON), and then indent their conditions.

    • Do not use a line break before the first item (or remove the existing one) if there is only one item (like SELECT with only one column).

    • Always use BEGIN / END for IF / ELSE, WHILE (add if missing).

    • Always use INTO for INSERT (add if missing).

    • Always use AS for aliases…

  7. 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.

  8. 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.....-- CommentC

    Thank you. Jake.

  9. 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
    end

    The begin and end words should not be as bold as the sql statements, a bit like curly brackets are.

  11. It would be nice to have smarter subquery intellisense that works like the joining intellisense that suggest matches based on column names.

    E.g.
    SELECT * FROM Users WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM UserRoles WHERE Users.UserID = (**Pop up intellisense suggesting UserRoles.UserID*) UserRoles.UserID AND UserRoles.RoleID = 1)

    E.g.2
    E.g.
    SELECT UserID, UserName, (SELECT COUNT(1) FROM UserRoles WHERE Users.UserID = (**Pop up intellisense suggesting UserRoles.UserID*) UserRoles.UserID) AS NumberOfRoles FROM Users

  12. In Visual Studio there is a plug that allows you to have the document tabs down the right hand side, which when you have loads of files open is very useful, especially now we have widescreen monitors. However SSMS is behind the times and the tabs along the top isn't enough. Can you please add a feature to display the sql tabs down the side rather than the top.

  14. I would be helpful to be able to hide ID or partitioning columns that may not ever be needed when selecting data. They just get in the way when expanding SELECT * but are still necessary to the table structure.

  16. Execute Current Statement is a great feature to test out a statement currently being worked. Sometimes I like to break a statement out to its own query window for further development.
    Copy (or Cut) Current Statement would work just like Execute Current Statement except it would copy (or cut) the statement to clipboard instead of executing it.

  17. 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.

    example:
    SELECT [v].id, [v].name, [v].IDENTITYCOL, [v].$IDENTITY FROM table [v]

  19. 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.

  20. Code preview when hovering a tab or session in the "Documents Sessions" window. I often have several tabs open at once and they are all called "SQLQuery#.sql" which doesn't help. Allow me to see what code is in the tab by hovering it, or ctrl+tab or like tabing through windows or hovering windows in the taskbar in Windows.
