Intellisense..when?

This is one of the top requested feature for next version (or SP) of SQL Server. (http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback ) There si some third parity tools but light years away from Visual Studio intellisense. I have only one simple question based on this answer

This is a very popular feature request. We will be working with teams across Microsoft to determine how best to do this. The intellisense offered by 3rd party ISVs is not perfect from what I've seen. This is something we're considering for a future release.

Thanks for the feedback!

It looks like we're going to earn a "". It is not going to come in Service Pack 2 () or any service pack for SQL Server 2005 ().

There are 3rd party tools available. I heard there were many issues in Red Gate's SQL Prompt 2 that were addressed with SQL Prompt 3. I have not used it myself.

Due to the inherent nature of the T-SQL language, it is far more difficult to make intellisense work as well as it does with C# or Visual Basic. There are two teams at Microsoft looking to address the problem. One is in the SQL Server team, the other is in the Visual Studio team. We do not have any official commitments to what is going to be in the next release of SQL Server ("Katmai"). Once we firmly establish what is in the next release and what isn't, we'll make sure to inform the SQL Server community.
