Objects Folding in SQL SERVER petition...

AlexCode

Hi, I'm thinking about starting a petition demanding objects folding on SQL Server :laugh:. It would be greatly appreciated to be able to group objects inside folders having them separated hierarchically on the intellisence too (or simply on the object "namespace" like any other MS .net language. Grouping tables and specially storeds would make things a lot more readable and organized... would it be a gread deal of work to implement??? Any opinions on this? Thanks, Alex

Good luck with the petition.

My thoughts exactly - sorry MS, but a filter doesn't even begin to address the problem lol

C# has already designed away most of the tedium of C++.

Eh? Can't you just come up with your own hierarchical naming scheme? I've yet to see a SQL editor from MS that does Intellisense, so it's not like that matters.

That's be a nice addition, but I've long since abandoned using the tree in Query explorer and management studio. I use the catalog views instead. They made some great improvements in the DB engine in 2005, and at the same time managed to make the new UI a disaster. :doh:

Having it grouped by a naming convention is just not enough for me. I like to have sp's named like: Get...; Save...; Update...; Create...; etc... I don't like to name the object and then it's functionality, I like to have the functionality first, like thinking: "I want to save a invoice" -> sp_SaveInvoice On this line of thinking I have all the Save's grouped and this is not cute to see. So if I could have a folder where I could place all my Invoicing sp logic it would be great, accessing it like: Exec AppDB.Invoicing.sp_SaveInvoice @1 @2... just like I do already in C# with my objects. For the intellisense you can download the SQL 2008 or download a trial of SQL Prompt from Red-Gate: http://www.red-gate.com/products/SQL_Prompt/index.htm[^]
