Have you considered contacting him to find out?I created an add-in a few months ago (I [url=http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/FindPost1175462.aspx]just posted about it here[/url], actually), and the difficulty is not so much the development as the management of the install process, versioning, etc; if you want to make it available to others it's a pain, you need an installer and everything.I'd be happy to look at adding it to the SQL Formatter add-in, but it's a little off-topic - would be more of a secret feature than anything else :-). Let me know if you'd like me to have a go at adding that in the next version, or if you find a better solution.</description><pubDate>Thu, 15 Sep 2011 02:40:11 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Tao Klerks</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: SSMS Add-in for Extended Property MS_Description</title><link>http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1166383-391-1.aspx</link><description>No suggestions? Tried looking into creating my own and although doesn't look impossible just would hate to kick myself for spending hours on something that's already been done and relatively feasible.</description><pubDate>Wed, 14 Sep 2011 11:45:38 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Santiago E.

Looking for something that can be like a context menu with a text box to insert/change Description rather than having to go into design mode etc. Thanks in advance,</description><pubDate>Fri, 26 Aug 2011 13:04:10 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Santiago E.
