SQL Server (T-SQL) SQL Formatter
Free online SQL Server T-SQL formatter. Format Microsoft SQL Server queries with support for stored procedures, TOP, OUTPUT clauses, IF/WHILE blocks, TRY/CATCH, and table variables.
What is Microsoft SQL Server (T-SQL)?
Microsoft SQL Server is a leading enterprise relational database management system. Its query language, Transact-SQL (T-SQL), extends ANSI SQL with procedural programming constructs — variables, control flow (IF/ELSE, WHILE), error handling (TRY/CATCH), and stored procedures — making it a full server-side programming environment.
SQL Server is widely used in enterprise applications, business intelligence, and .NET ecosystems. It offers tight integration with Azure, reporting services (SSRS), analysis services (SSAS), and integration services (SSIS). It powers many large-scale enterprise workloads including ERP, CRM, and financial systems.
The T-SQL formatter correctly handles SQL Server-specific syntax — stored procedures, TOP, OUTPUT INTO, table variables, temporary tables, and T-SQL control flow blocks — producing well-indented, readable T-SQL for development and code review.
Frequently asked questions
Does the T-SQL formatter handle stored procedures?
Yes. CREATE PROCEDURE and ALTER PROCEDURE bodies, EXEC/EXECUTE statements, and parameter declarations are all formatted with proper indentation, making complex procedures significantly easier to read.
Will T-SQL-specific syntax like TOP and OUTPUT be formatted?
Yes. T-SQL-specific clauses including SELECT TOP, UPDATE ... OUTPUT INTO, INSERT ... OUTPUT, DELETE ... OUTPUT, MERGE with OUTPUT, and the OPTION() query hint clause are all formatted correctly.
Does it handle T-SQL control flow (IF, WHILE, TRY/CATCH)?
Yes. T-SQL procedural control flow — IF/ELSE, WHILE loops, BEGIN/END blocks, TRY/CATCH/THROW — and GOTO statements are all formatted with consistent block indentation.
Will temporary tables and table variables be formatted?
Yes. T-SQL temporary tables (#temp, ##global_temp in CREATE TABLE), table variable declarations (@tableName TABLE(...)), and derived tables in FROM clauses are all formatted correctly.
