Many thanks for your post.
Can you try the folowing settings:
1. SQL Prompt 4 --> Options --> Format --> Case --> Reserved Keywords --> change to 'Leave as is'
2. SQL Prompt 4 --> Options --> Format --> Case --> Build-in functions --> change to 'Leave as is'
3. SQL Prompt 4 --> Options --> Format --> Case --> Build-in data types --> change to 'Leave as is'
And than try to replicate the issue and let me know if this fixes the issue. -
Hello Anu,
that does not help at all.
It works for the word'value but all the other keywords are kept in the case i'm typing them in.
That's not helpful. All other keywords, function and data-types are needed in upper case.
So i have to keep these settings with uppercase.
I don't understand why value is changed to upper case. It's not a reserved keyword, or a function or a data-type?
Sorry, but this solution makes it worse.
Thanks.
Thorsten -
Apologies that the suggestion didn't help.
Can you send us the complete query so that we can understand the scenario and replicate the issue? -

Here is a sample code:DECLARE @XML XML SET @XML = (SELECT ID , LastName , FirstName FROM ( SELECT 1 AS ID , 'LastName1' AS LastName , 'FirstName1' AS FirstName UNION SELECT 2 AS ID , 'LastName2' AS LastName , 'FirstName2' AS FirstName UNION SELECT 3 AS ID , 'LastName3' AS LastName , 'FirstName3' AS FirstName) AS NameList FOR XML AUTO, TYPE ) SELECT T.C.VALUE('@ID', 'INT') AS ID , T.C.VALUE('@LastName', 'NVARCHAR(100)') AS LastName , T.C.VALUE('@FirstName', 'NVARCHAR(100)') AS FirstName FROM @XML.nodes('/NameList') T(C)
If I execute the code I get the error message:Msg 227, Level 15, State 1, Line 21 "VALUE" is not a valid function, property, or field.
"value" is case sensitive and must be in lower case. SQLPrompt changes the value always to upper case.
It must look like this:SELECT T.C.value('@ID', 'INT') AS ID , T.C.value('@LastName', 'NVARCHAR(100)') AS LastName , T.C.value('@FirstName', 'NVARCHAR(100)') AS FirstName FROM @XML.nodes('/NameList') T(C)

Thorsten,
I've been pestering Red Gate about this behavior ever since they took over SQL Prompt - without any success, so far :-( Glad to see another user also seems to agree this is an issue that needs to be fixed ASAP.
See this thread here - an "enhancement request" has already been logged - express your interest in it, then we might get them to finally fix it some day!!

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a time schedule for this error to be fixed? -
Hopefully you will get a better answer than I did:...has advised me that there will more than likely be no layout requests / bugs fixed with this release.
The quote is referring to version 5 that they are planning to work on in the next quarter. -
Gee... that's quite a long time... :shock: I guess I have to switch back to SQL-Prompt 3.9 which does not have this problem.

When I use an XML variable and try to create a SELECT like this:
is changed to this:
The keyword value is always converted into (upper case) VALUE and that doesn't work for XML.
It's very anoying... I have to manually change it back to lower case...
Please, help.
Thanks,
Thorsten
