SSMS Tools Pack: Features

Uppercase/Lowercase keywords

Set all keywords to uppercase or lowercase letters. Custom keywords can be added.

Search results and execution plans Thumbnail

Run one script on multiple databases

Run selected or full window text on selected databases on the currently connected server. A new window is opened that contains one script for all databases.

Copy execution plan bitmaps to clipboard

Copy selected or all execution plans to a bitmap that is saved on the clipboard. Large execution plans that don't fit in the window are also copied in full.
Width of a picture containing all execution plans is equal to the width of the widest execution plan.

Search Results in Grid Mode and Execution Plans

Find all occurrences of your search string in the execution plans or in the results in datagrid mode.

Generate Insert statements for a single table, the whole database or current resultsets in grids

Insert statements for the whole database are generated by the order of PK-FK relationships. Top tables with no FK's are scripted first. Binary data is by default fully scripted. If you wish you can also set the scripting data limit between 0 and 10 Mb. Larger values then the limit are then scripted as NULL.

Insert statements for the data in result grids are scripted into a new temporary table for each grid. For example from 5 result grids insert statements for 5 temporary tables get created.

Query Execution History (Soft Source Control)

Every statement that you run is logged in a file on your disk or in a table in a database you specify with a connection string. This way, if you're working on some script you can get the full history of every change you've made between check-out and check-in of your file.
Actions are saved in a list that is written to a file and/or a database on a timer which you can set to a desired interval.

Text document Regions and Debug sections

Regions behave in the same way as in Visual Studio. You can collapse them and expand them. Debug sections are sections that get commented or deleted when you change your script to Release configuration. A debug section is also a collapsable region. If you deploy a script in debug mode with added debug sections it will fail when run from SSMS without SSMS Tools Pack installed. You can of course comment those sections yourself by simply searching for start and end text of the debug sections.

Running custom scripts from Object explorer's Context menu

You can specify a custom script text, its name and node on Object Explorer on which you want to run it from. Node name, current database, current connection string and current server can also be specified in the custom script with keywords that are replaced with their respective values at script runtime.

CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) stored procedure generation

CRUD stored procedure generation for tables based on fully customizable templates that you can change to suit your needs.

New query template

When opening a new query window you can specify a template that will be displayed.
