Enable Excel export without having Excel installed
I often run Linqpad on a server where I don't have Excel installed (due to the SQL server being behind a firewall).
It would be nice if the Excel export could work regardless of Excel beeing installed on the machine or not.
Perhaps using a library like ClosedXML or similar.9 votes -
Add option to disable completely Instant Share
Why is this option not disabled yet? I am being asked to not use LinqPad any longer in my day to day workflow because someone accidentally shared something to Instant Share.
We need to be able to:
a) disable the menu item so that it cannot be accidentally clicked (or even seen)
b) disable the hot key combo so that it cannot be accidentally hit
c) manage the scripts that have been uploaded on our behalf so that we can delete any sensitive scripts.Scripts should not be automatically made publicly accessible without warning and should certainly not be left…

Quick search/open/edit by name views/stored procedures/functions
In database with lot of views/procedures/functions is hard to find the desired object for editing just looking in the tree view.
Would be great if LinqPad have a menu item/shortcut opening a dialog for typing and searching incrementally the object and openning it after found.2 votes -
Include Optional Parameter for Hyperlinq Tooltip
I'm hoping this would be a fairly easy change, but would make my life a lot easier. I dump a lot of abbreviated strings/hyperlinqs which I only sometimes need to differentiate the absolute paths or other truncated details for. It would be great if I could just mouse over the text to get some additional info.

Dump DateTime like regular object instead of formatting it
I'd like to see the dump for a
DateTimebe more like a normal object rather than a string format. It's easy enough to to.ToString(format)if I want to see the format, but right now there's not a nice way to see the object properties.16 votes -
multiple context
Multiple Contexts - without cross queries.
I think it would be nice to be able to have multiple database connections/contexts. This would be handy in Azure where you can't do cross database queries anyway.
It would just make pulling data from one database into memory and comparing against another easier...

Immediate window in LinqPad
When using Rx, I wish I was able to call OnNext on subjects as needed once the query has being compiled and is running.

Add abiltiy to copy minimum working example (MWE)
It would be nice to have the option of copying a 'Minimum Working Example' to the clipboard. This would make it easier to e.g. post a question on StackOverflow.
It should include all namespaces and a full class declaration containing a static Main-Method. Also see here: https://stackoverflow.com/help/mcve

provide support for mongo db query
i wanted to use linq over a mongo db database but i couldn't find any driver, i found one in codeplex which didn't work as suggested and it wasn't official. It would be really great if a official driver for mongo query is provided as a free feature

Export Connection Strings of Saved Connections
It'd be great if we could quickly get a properly formatted connection string for any of our database connections.

Roslyn syntax tree diagram pan on middleMouse click
It wasn't obvious but I found that I can zoom the syntax tree diagram via the scroll wheel, and that it centres the zoom around the cursor.
However this really needs the ability to pan too - I'd suggest panning with MMB-drag or RMB-drag.
Either that or add scrollbars...12 votes -
Bug - Export menu appears on 2nd monitor when LINQPad is full screen on 1st monitor
I have a two-monitor workstation and often use LINQPad in full-screen mode on my primary (left) monitor. Whenever I click the "Export" drop-down in this scenario, the menu always appears on the 2nd (right) monitor.

Enable LinqPad to ignore explicit 'using' directives that duplicate the namespaces that LinqPad loads by default.
When I typed in the first sample code from C# in a Nutshell, I got a puzzling error message stating that I was trying to use the namespace ('using System;') as a variable. I say this with complete understanding that trapping errors and writing good messages to go with them is challenging, to say the least. Ignoring the supposed error is much preferable to receiving a misleading message--and may be easier to implement within LinqPad.
MSG: "CS0118 'System' is a namespace but is used like a variable"

Support mapping [String].Split() to SQL 2016's STRING_SPLIT
SQL 2016 supports built-in function STRING_SPLIT().
This function corresponds to .net [String].Split(char).
Please enable mapping from C# to SQL when calling .Split() on a string.4 votes -
I need larger fonts everywhere. I do not believe that LinqPad conforms to the usability requirements of ISO 9241 for ergonomic requirements.
The editor font can be changed, but that is not good enough. Not everybody needs larger fonts but everybody will need them eventually. I have a forty dollar editor that lets me change the font everywhere, including the tree controls and menus (which is why I use it). Surely you have the chops to match a text editor. I just cannot keep this upgrade unless I can read the screen without a headache.

View a diff before I hit save
Allow me to see a diff before I hit save.
Quite often I might have made some changes to a saved query, and days / hours later don't know what I changed and if I want to keep the change.
My current workaround is to save to a new filename and run kdiff, but it would be nice to integrate this feature into the program.
I could just put all my snippets in a repo, but that is probably overkill for most people. As .linq files are just text files this should be relatively straightforward.

Live query results
I often use LINQPad to check for new or updated data in SQL tables. I have queries open that I refresh after I make an operation in my application.
It would be really helpful if you could create "live" queries or a change log for a database table or query. I think it would be possible using SqlDependency to get the required notifications.
I imagine something like new or updated rows are added to the bottom of the searchresult and the search result is scrolled down. New and added rows as colored for a period of time to visually indicate…

Install the Beta releases from the UI
Add the possibility of manually installing the last Beta from the user interface.
I install the Beta releases every single time. It would be nice to be able to install the Betas without going to the web site, etc.. manually initiated of course.

Add a No Update Option to LINQPad.exe.config
We recently ran into a problem where the automatic upgrade option caused a bug, and being sure that Linqpad is always invoked with -noupdate is a pain. Having such an option in the LINQPad.exe.config would make for easier work arounds.
