install SOurce Control 6 to SSMS 17.4

Scjohnson243

I have recently installed SSMS 17.4 and 3 of my redgate buttons show up, "Tab History", "SQL Search", and "SQL Test" - I do not have source control... How do I add source control to SSMS 17.4?

Thanks!

Hi,

SQL Source Control 6 works with SSMS 17.4.

When you upgrade SSMS quite often you will have to do a repair installation of SQL Source Control so that the add-in is added to the new location.

It's also advisable to be using the most recent version of SQL Source Control (currently the latest version is 6.0.7), you might have to enable Frequent Updates to get this version:
