TargetWndProc Exception!

After adding some snippets and modifying them I keep getting this error whenever I click away from, click to or try to run script in SQL Server Management Studio. I sent the error report from the popup window and got issue tracking number #11302 and then tried to fix it.

I exported my formatting settings and snippets and restored the defaults which made the error vanish but after importing the formatting and snippets part of the export it's here again. I did that several times to check and it seem consistent in its behaviour.

Is it possible that the .sas file got somehow corrupted and that corruption is sticking to exported file as well?

I've had to manually export (copy-paste) my settings recently but I added dozens of new snippets since then and even using macros/AHK do accomplish the task it took some time and I really would not like to do that again. I can send the exported file (if required).

Hi,

I checked the submitted error report and I found it referring to Notepad++, not SSMS
Are you sure it is impacting SSMS too? Have you restarted all target editors after the change in the settings? Can you reproduce this issue after loading all default options?

By the way, our development team is looking into this issue already.

Thanks

Notepad++ was open, yes, I wanted to see if it was ssms the only one producing the error or not. I'll check this with only ssms and Chrome browser open and everything else closed. Will report back in a few minutes.

I uninstalled SQL Assistant, backed up the export file and restarted my machine. After reinstalling SQL Assistant and starting ssms there was no error. Importing the settings (formatting and snippets only) made the error reappear. I reloaded the defaults, and closed both ssms and SA. Restarted them, no errors. Closed ssms, imported settings, restarted SA, started ssms and the error was there again.

Perhaps I could import my settings step-by-step but it would be easier if I knew which part is causing this error (formatting, snippets, both or is there relation at all)?

I messed around with snippets and it is very likely that setting a snippet trigger to its last character is causing trouble here.

I'd like to send you a private build for testing of this issue. I believe it has been resolved in that build. Please send an email to supportATsofttreetech.com with a reference to this message thread.

I did as you asked. Just wondering, are our email addresses not visible to you?
