Came across this excellent SQL Server Management Studio add-in, which has some cool fuzzy search technology for quickly finding objects.

I’ve been using this sp_grep script for searching databases, and having a visual tool now that can do this a lot more convenient. The sp_grep script also searches stored procedure text, table columns, etc so it’s a bit more powerful, though Joseph Coony offers the source code for this add-in on his blog if you want to modify this add-on to extend its search capabilities.

Found out about this from SecretGeek, who points out that the search technology is by an Australian Micro-ISV called ShuffleText.  As Leon says:

At their blog you will find an incredible, epic and very honest post about building a micro isv

He’s right - the blog entry is excellent reading.  Check it out at The birth of a Micro ISV.
