Author  Topic  Vedran Starting Member 1 Post Posted - 2010-12-16 : 16:58:53 While writing T-SQL code in SQL Management Studio I always wanted to quickly peek at table columns I use in query, their comments, foreign keys, indexes, function code, etc. Another feature I really missed was a simple search for tables/procedures by their name part (e.g. middle of the name contains "xy"). With lacking of these, I wrote some T-SQL scripts that gave me such details and could search the database. After a while, I packed those scripts into a plugin so they can be used through a GUI. It looks similar to a very rich "Object Details" window. That is the story how SQL XDetails plugin was born. I thank to Mladen Prajdic who helped me with some advices as experienced author of another nice plugin. You can look at screenshots and download XDetails tool here, for free: www.sqlxdetails.com Kind regards, Vedran Kesegic, author of SQL XDetails
