Sql Server management studio how to auto capitalize

Question

Is there any FREE \"build-in\" way to capitalize the \"keywords\" in the SQL 2005/2008 management studio when you write a sql query?

i.e

truncate tab         


        

Answer 1

You can use New Query and type in your SQL in lower case in the editor. To change keywords to upper case, select the SQL then press Ctrl + Shift + Q. The Query Designer will open. Highlight the SQL and then right click to bring up menu and choose verify SQL Syntax which will upper case keywords and format the SQL.
