Suggestion: Import v2 snippets

• 
  Hi,
  

  Suggestion: Import v2 snippets

  
  That was on our list, but then things went wrong and we slipped horribly.
  

  Right now I would like to know where does v2 store this text (and also where does v3).

  
  v2: C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Red Gate\SQL Prompt\Options.xml
  
  v3: C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Red Gate\SQL Prompt 3\SQL Prompt 3 Snippets.xml
  

  Edit: It would be also well received if I was able to edit an existing snippet by double-clicking on it.

  
  Do you mean double clicking on it in the candidate list, or in the options dialog?
  
  Regards,

  I hate to say, "it happens"

  There's a problem here (at least with my version). I cannot find this file, and it seems SQL Prompt never writes the snippets: I closed everything, deleted the .DBCache files, and restarted Console and Query Analyzer (incidentally, I needed to start SQL Prompt 3 manually) and the snippets were gone (again)

  In the options dialog (didn't think in the candidate list)
  
  I have to say, I think this is a way better version than the previous one, that didn't even looked as an alpha (IMO) --or maybe I was just expecting too much, and for this version I wasn't :roll:

  Hm, not sure what to suggest here. I'll forward it to the developer, maybe he's got some ideas.

  I've added a suggestion to our list.

  It's called 'managing people's expectations'
