SSMS Tab Management
Published 11 February 2013
SQL Prompt's Tab History keeps a history of the query windows (tabs) that you open in SSMS. You can use it to track down scripts that you forgot to save, or that you were working on when SSMS crashed. With tab management, it is difficult to lose work.
SQL Prompt's Tab Coloring component will ensure you are always aware of the SQL Server instance to which your current query pane is connected, to avoid unfortunate accidents.
