**SQL Prompt 3.1 Released**

Published Friday, March 23, 2007 12:59 PM

We are very pleased to announce that SQL Prompt 3.1 has now been released. You can download it from:

http://www.red-gate.com/products/SQL_Prompt/index.htm

The most notable addition is support for SQL Server Management Studio Express Edition, however even if you don't use this version of Management Studio we'd recommend the upgrade so you can take advantage of the following bug fixes and improvements:

  • Fixed various glitches when running on Windows Vista,
  • Fixed bug causing lock-up when an apostrophe is entered whilst editing in a split window in Management Studio,
  • Now prefers exact matches for the current filter string by bringing them to the top of the candidate list,
  • Keywords etc no longer auto-upper/lower-cased in comments and strings,
  • Auto-closing character behaviour improved: insertion made less intrusive, auto-deletes when opening character is removed, can now overtype closing characters,
  • Fixed case-sensitive owner/schema filtering bug,
  • Empty object name no longer causes exception,
  • Fixed exceptions when using "Run As..." to run Query Analyzer and/or Management Studio
  • Fixed inappropriate connection attempts by SQL Prompt; fixes VPN related issues,
  • A number of other small fixes and improvements to handle uncommon situations, e.g. attempting to connect to SQL Server 6.5.

Please enjoy using SQL Prompt 3.1.

About Bart Read

Bart has done many things since he started work at Red Gate Software Ltd in August 2004, but nowadays he's (mainly) the product manager for the .NET Developer Tools. He still feels like this is a bit like admitting you were cheering for the Empire whilst watching Star Wars, but for now he's along for the ride. In a previous incarnation he was a project manager leading the .NET Reflector Pro, ANTS Memory Profiler 5, ANTS Performance Profiler 4 & 5, and SQL Prompt 3.0 - 3.6 projects. He still occasionally writes some code and, in the past, has touched the code for most of the Red Gate SQL developer tools... some of them still haven't recovered from the shock. He was born and grew up in Dorset, was educated in Nottingham and London, and likes music and real ale. His photo is extremely misleading.
