What’s new in SQL Prompt Version 11.0

• SSMS 21 support

To ensure customers can use SQL Prompt seamlessly when working with the latest version of SSMS, we’ve released support for SSMS 21.

In SSMS 21, you can find SQL Prompt within the Extensions Menu.  To move SQL Prompt to the top-level menu, select Extensions | Customize Menu… Then uncheck the checkbox next to the SQL Prompt item in the list. Learn more.

We have also released SSMS 21 support for other tools within SQL Toolbelt Essentials: SQL Doc, SQL Dependency Tracker, SQL Data Generator, SQL Multi Script, SQL Source Control, SQL Search and SQL Test.
