SQL Buddy - Query Analyzer with Intellisense
C# Open source version of SQL Query Analyzer with code completion - http://sqlbuddy.sourceforge.net. If you type in a table name and hit ctrl-space, it has a dropdown with the columns, etc. It's version .68a so they're still adding features, but it's pretty solid.
The guys that are developing this said they welcome criticism and suggestions, so fire away if you have any. My dream feature - save all open query windows to a temp file. I hate rebooting with 12 open windows in QA... Seems like they could be easily dumped into a temp XML file with the connection and SQL text.
Hopefully Yukon will give us this kind of fun built into VS.
