Hopefully this has not been covered...

Capitalization does not work around parentheses, i.e.:

(select does not become (SELECT

count(*) does not become COUNT(*)

I saw one post that suggested adding spaces, i.e., ( select, and count (*), which does work. I would prefer not to have to change my formatting.

Another issue with parentheses is if I do this:

SELECT OrderID FROM Orders WHERE ( <stop here>

even though I added a space after the parentheses, Intellisense does not pop up. If I write the same query without the parentheses, Intellisense is there.

So in general, and in my opinion, I feel there should be an option to ignore parentheses in the capitalization and Intellisense behavior.

This is hands down one of the most useful tools I have seen and this is obviously a nitpick.

Thanks.

    Hi Tele,


    Thanks for reporting this. To be honest it's not that much of a nitpick. The current version of SQL Prompt is a bit fussy about what it will recognise and pop up intellisense for, however we're going to be fixing this in version 3 so watch this space. In the meantime I can only apologise for the hassle it's causing you.


    Many thanks,
    Bart Read
