  • The Show Grid Aggregates (set to Autoshow / Autohide) is very useful too - except you query a very large data warehouse table with lot of columns and e.g. 500k lines and select all, because you want either to script it out or just copy it. In this case the Grid aggregate kicks in an uses 1-2 minutes summing and counting my customer numbers, zip codes and other useless stuff. So it would be nice if the aggregate modul would ask me (button in the aggregate window), if I would really want to aggregate the selected stuff, if I have selected very much data (lines * columns > x, while x (e.g. 10 mio) could be configured)


The limit for automatic calculations is now implemented. Check latest Beta.

Fighting against the trial time limit on these Beta's is getting old... It's a pain when the limit expires and the next time I open SSMS I can't restore my last session! But it just goes to show you how dependent you become on some of SSMSBoost's features once you've been using them for a while. :)

I've reread the first post of this thread so I understand licensing is disabled for beta, but when I install the latest beta it says I'm expired. All boost features are disabled. What can I do to re-enable them? I am using SSMS 2016 and SSMSBoostInstaller2016_3.0.6201.27007.msi

You are using old version. Please download latest one (links are in the first post of this thread)

Is there a way to move contex menu items added by plugin to the bottom of the menu? I'm having an issue with Registered Server contex menu that is not customizable from GUI level. Clicking on the "Expand All" instead of the "New Query" is quite irritating.

Hi,

I've been using the Results Grid scripting capability, using the INSERT INTO template, and have noticed that when I put a table name into the Specify Parameter Values that has requires a schema name, the resulting table name is wrapped in square brackets. As the table name is wrapped completely, the generated SQL is invalid.

For example, if I enter the table name AdventureWorks.DimDate, the resulting script shows as :

Code:
INSERT INTO [AdventureWorks.DimDate] ([DimDateKey].....


The script should read as :

Code:
INSERT INTO [AdventureWorks].[DimDate] ([DimDateKey].....


Thanks,
Steve

EDIT : I've edited the XML for the template to include an additional schema parameter, which is then appended to the table name with a period between, to work around the problem. Thanks!

Feature request: custom tab names

$

Hello,
It was mentioned here (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24653134/in-ssms-how-do-i-change-a-sql-query-windows-tab-name) that SSMSBoost may potentially support custom tab names. Let me explain why I would want such feature in the first place.

Microsoft seems to be very reluctant about changing the way they implemented tabs in SSMS/VS (check the their connect requests). Only one row of tabs is supported and everything else goes into a pulldown menu. By default the tab titles shows usernames etc, but it can be narrowed down, via options, to just the filename. This is much better but unsaved files still show as SQLQuery1.sql, SQLQuery2.sql etc. I know, maybe I should be saving all my queries and giving them proper names but I think this is an overkill and I do not want to keep saving all my queries just to know which is which. On a daily basis I work with many temporary queries connected to different servers. I have no intention of keeping those queries. They are used to support and debug our main application and sql code. When the queries are displaying as tabs I kind of visually remember which is which. Once they spill into the pulldown it is difficult to find the query I am looking for. I just keep clicking to find the right one.

While this is not a standard feature across many many applications in a world of adhoc queries it kind of makes sense. I'd like to be able to name unsaved queries so that the titles are more meaningful. Someone suggested to base the title on the first line/comment in the file, so for example "--TabName:Test ABC" line would make the tab title "Test ABC". Perhaps the tag name could be customized and it could appear anywhere in the code and the first tag would be used in case more than 1 were defined.

Just a thought. Hopefully something like that would be possible to do.

What I have suggested is a way of defining Composite whitespace character sequences using the built in whitespace characters e.g. Tab/Space/Newline so that you could have "NewlineTab" = Newline + Tab which could then be used from the drop down lists in the format options.

Code:
SELECT * FROM ATable

Could become

SSMS Boost team, thank you for your great job. It is really nice to see the improvements you are making.

I would like to ask you about a couple of enhancements/fixes:

1. In previous versions (at least prior to v3) if you call "Script Object as Alter" on a table it would script the table. But it gives an error now saying that "No suitable objects found at cursor position". It would be nice to have it back. When you explore an unknown table, it makes it easier to review table structure and related objects.

2. SQL Server 2016 SP1 supports "CREATE OR ALTER" syntax. IT would be nice to have an option to use that syntax instead of "Alter" (it can optional configuration)

3. "Reparse/Refresh Regions" wipes out collapsable sections SSMS creates automatically on sections like BEGIN/END

First of all I want to thank you for the great tool.
Please, if it is possible add this function to New Query window in SSMS:

Copy the current line and paste it below without interfering with the clipboard.

Thank you very much!

Thank you for this proposal. We have similar feature in our to-do list. There are a couple of technical problems that need to be solved. We hope to provide the solution in near future.

Sorry for confusing you.

It should work in the current window.
And yes, I do not want to destroy contents of my clipboard.

Here is the example:
1) Copy whole line where is the position of cursor.
UserPostedImage
2) Paste it as next line.
UserPostedImage

It would be nice if it can work for defined shortcut. Maybe it can be done by Shortcuts & Macros in SSMSBoost, but I am not able to configure it.

Thank you very much!

ssms crashing

hi there,

thanks for the hard work with the new beta version.

for a long time (months) i've had an issue with ssms crashing after a while when i have ssmsboost installed.

ssms becomes unusable and i have to kill it via task manager and restart. i can see fragments of multiple copies of ssms in my taskbar when this happens.

if i uninstall ssmsboost everything returns to normal.

i'm running the latest version of ssmsboost and the latest version of ssms (currently 13.0.16106.4) on windows 10.

just thought i'd mention it in case it hasn't been mentioned before.

thanks!

Hello guys

first of all thanks for the great tool.
I've been using it with a community license for quite some time now and it is a great help. However, the beta version I've been using (the latest release for SSMS2014, 3.0.6224.39758) has locked up, even though it says I've got 18 more days of trial when strarting SSMS (in the about dialog it says that my trial is over).
Since there is no activation system available yet for v3.0 beta, I'd like to ask if there's going to be a new version released soon?

Thanks a lot


[Edit]
Guys, a couple of restarts and re-installs later, things got normal again... Dunno why - the wonders of high tech. So, never mind my nagging.
Even though, the question about when the next release is estimated, still stands even though I bet you've replied a million times already...

Thanks again

Two of us at my work are having the same issue, I had a trial version on, when I go to the About/License dialog box, all of that is grayed out with no information. My co worker has the 2016 Beta version installed with the same results. Any suggestions? - thanks, nancy
