Intellisense for SQL Server, plus other features

Every now and again I run into a tool which is just amazingly stunning. Today I looked at the SeeSharp.nl blog and found an excellent tool called SQL Prompt by a company called Red Gate.

It is a free tool and definately worth the download if you write even one SQL statement per week!

Features include:

  • Code completion for fast, accurate script building
  • Discoverability in SQL Server query creation
  • Keyword formatting, code snippet integration other extended features
  • FREE until 1st September 2006
  • No time-bombs, no restrictions
  • Table/View name completion
  • Column name completion
  • Stored procedure name completion
  • USE completion
  • JOIN/JOIN ON completion
  • Auto-uppercasing of keywords
  • Auto-popup after keywords
