Improve schema handling in SQL Server DB profile

Instead, all tables are attached directly to the main "Tables" node. This flat approach may quickly lead to thousands of tables. In an environment where each user has its own schema, this becomes almost unusable. On the positive side of things, tables are at least grouped by schema. (and not by table name as done by Aqua Data Studio) DbVisualizer Personal present the objects in the same was as "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express" does. > Since there's no schema node, there's also no way to filter this list. Especially because the schema qualifier is not being taken into account when table names are filtered (inconsistency, the schema should either have its own node or it should be considered part of the name) We'll check at the problem filtering compound object names (Ex: schema.table). > Current workaround: > - Use the generic DB profile.

The recommended solution to get the Free appearance of database objects is to switch to the "generic" database profile. > Proposed short-term solution: Let table name filter apply to the whole name including the schema qualifier.

The SQL Server database profile in DbVisualizer tries to mimic the SQL Studio Server Express Management (...) from Microsoft (and former SQL Server Analyzer). It is a rather easy fix to introduce a Schema level in the tree. However, I don't know if this is what the majority of users want. Best Regards Roger
