Frequent updates for SQL Source Control
SQL Source Control updates are now released every few months. If you want to get updates every 2-3 weeks, you can turn on frequent updates.
Installing an update is always optional, whether or not y...
Hi,
We have identified the performance issue with expanding Object Explorer nodes (eg Tables) in versions 3.6.6 and 3.6.7 of SQL Source Control. A database request is unnecessarily made for every object in the list, so the performance hit will depend on the speed of connections to your SQL Server instance.
A fix is in the pipeline, and we hope to make it available this week to frequent updates. / comments

Thanks for the feedback Jeff. It's good to see that you've got SQL Prompt working in your environment now.
SQL Prompt in Visual Studio sometimes has problems automatically identifying the database connection when you're editing a query, which is why the Connect to Server... option is there to do it manually. This is not needed in SQL Server Management Studio as the connection is always identified.
You say you "recently installed Visual Studio 2010": have you used SQL Prompt inside any version of Visual Studio before? If SQL Prompt used to find the database connection in Visual Studio for you, and doesn't now with SSDT queries, then that's useful information for us and we'll try to improve it in a future release.

That's very strange. Maybe one of the SQL Prompt local configuration files has got something wrong in it, so renaming the %LocalAppData%\Red Gate\SQL Prompt 5 out of the way could be worth a try. You won't need to reinstall SQL Prompt.
In that directory, RedGate_SQLPrompt_CommonUI_Options_UIOptions.xml has an entry <CandidateListColumnDivider>, which controls how far across the grey text should start. Although the user interface shouldn't let you move the grey text completely out of the way, if something has caused this value to be outside the range of 0.125 to 0.875 then the grey text could disappear. For instance, I manually edited the value to 1.0 and couldn't see the grey text at all.
Renaming the directory as above will reset SQL Prompt's settings, but you could also take a look inside that XML file to see if there is an odd value there. / comments
