Hello,
Uppercasing of keywords has not yet been implemented and so the functionality does not work now. However, rest assured this will be done for the release.
I hope that helps:)
Thanks,

EDIT: and yes, I do have Format > Case > Reserved Keywords set to UPPERCASE -
Hi George,
All automatically SQL Prompt inserted code respect the format settings of the user while being inserted. We do not have any settings currently to disable this functionality. However, I can log this into our bug tracking system and have it reviewed for our next version.
I hope that helps.

I couldn't find any option for this -
I have a question about formatting.
Can I do something like this
if @value = 1
or
@value = 2
begin
end
Where the or's and and's are moved to another line seperately or is that outside the realm of SQL Prompt? -
Hi,
I also don't like the behaviour on double-clicking identifiers. Selection stops on underlines (something like SP_Help). Therefor @variable is now selected completely. This wasn't in version 3.9. For me, I prefer the default behaviour from SSMS (always select the whole identifier). Hope you can change this or make a setting.
I also would wish easy functions like $Date$, $Time$, $Username$, $Computername$ in code snippets (perhaps even $Database.dbo.ScalarFunction$) and something to import my old snippets.
Thank you very much for early access (great idea!) ,

Just downloaded the early release and tried it out. Well done. The performance is noticeably snappy. I like the UI improvements too. Looking forward to the release (so I can put it on both my machines).

Hi Tanya,
I don't want SQL Prompt to reformat every procedure which I'm altering.
Even if, let's say, the code is not properly formatted, SQL Prompt will change the whole body of the procedure, thus messing up the source version control; Besides this, any change in the user preferences will make all the stored procedures to completely change their layout when altered.
This can be a very useful feature, but in the current implementation it's quite useless.tanya wrote:Hi George,

begin try set @cmd = 'dbcc inputbuffer( ' + cast(@@spid as varchar) + ')' insert into dbo.GenericTable ( Event ,Parameter ,Syntax ) exec ( @cmd ) end try begin catch set @errorMessage = error_message() raiserror(@errorMessage, 18, 1) end catch
Hi All,
I am wondering if there is any way to format the code like this, I would really like to have returns after exec statements when there are brackets evolved.

The super sleek and shiny new SQL Prompt v4 early access build is finally here!
Follow the link below to download the new version:
http://downloads.red-gate.com/EAP/SQLPr ... 0.1465.exe
So what’s new?
• Improved SQL support
• More accurate and reliable suggestions
• Accelerated performance
• Slick new UI
• Syntax error highlighting
Installation:
SQL Prompt v4 does not work in parallel with v3.x.
Installing SQL Prompt v4.0 will disable v3.x. To re-enable v3.x, uninstall v4.
Features not supported as yet:
• Temporary tables
• Linked servers
• CTE support
• Capitalisation of text as you type
• Automatic insertion of closing characters
But worry not as they will be implemented for the final release.
Note: Offline working is not supported in the new version.
We anticipate having the RC available early July. Meanwhile I hope you will all enjoy using the new v4 early access build.
Please submit any feedback, bug reports, or other suggestions you have in this forum.
Thanks,
Tanya
