I used to use the pricey Redgate tools for this, but today realised Visual Studio has this functionality built in, under Tools >= SQL Server, and they work great!

Yes. That's what I've used at times in the past. The local DBA uses RedGate and I just don't know why.

Wow! Didn't know that was there
In my defence, I've only been working with VS2010 professionally and in VS2010 it really isn't there
Perhaps as plug-in...

Not sure... I've got some vaguely named options that I can't use
I don't really care either, I shouldn't be forced to use a five year old IDE anyway!

Microsoft gets a lot of stuff correct. I really like them. It's their inconsistency in quality and intelligent products, that gets them a bad rap.

Many times (perhaps this one) they lag behind. They release something and the users want some additional tool, a third-party says "we can do that", and the users like it, then Microsoft says "good idea, we can to do that even better", but by the time they release it everyone is using the third-party tool and it's a long time before anyone notices Microsoft's tool.
This is made worse because the third-party often doesn't have a reputation to protect and can rush releases out quickly.

Agreed. I think they did this with phones, as well. A little behind the power curve.

But often (not always) with a better product.
Many businesses want to be the first to market at all costs and will wind up delivering a poor product, while others will take their time, see what the competition does, see how the market reacts, and then deliver a superior product. It's a gamble either way.

We bought the SDK and use it for deployment, to update the client's db. Not sure if the VS version can do that, but I'll definitely check it out.

I've completed the first two chapters of this book from No Starch Press on Bitcoins and it is quite good:
Bitcoin For the Befuddled by Barski & Wilmer - amazon link[^]
I don't generally like No Starch Press books, but this one is very well written and an enjoyable read about a technology which has been buzzed about a lot but very rarely explained.
Have you had any experience with Bitcoin or the Blockchain?

I know I thought the same thing.
If you read about the technology behind it though, it is far more secure than what is going on with your credit card -- which I am sure you have none of, because you are underground and do not live on the the grid.
Anyways, read the excerpt of the book, it's quite good and is very interesting because bitcoin is philosophically like gold (instead of like paper money).

Gold is a commodity that has been valued since pre-history. It has been used for art, jewelry, money, and even electronics.
Bitcoin is an algorithm that has no value outside of speculation. It is more like a volatile stock. You can make money off of it, but you have to have the stomach to handle the risk. Until it is internationally recognized MORE than a common currency (dollar, euro, yen) I'll stay away from it... and what I mean by that is, when is the last time you saw oil, diamonds, or any other item valued in bitcoins?

Right. We agree then. Gold is outmoded and should be valueless by this time in history.
Also, wasn't attempting to say bitcoin should be worth gold but the philosophy behind bitcoin is quite interesting as all monetary systems are -- well to me.

May I ask why you have to keep away from a sticky note? does it have a restraining order out on you?

Because to approach it, he has to also get near a computer -- and that's a really bad idea.

I have zero interest in Bitcoin.
I'd rather be phishing!

general or monetary interests ?

Intellectual, general and monetary.
OK, I have to admit, the technical aspect of bitcoin mining is (can be) fun.

That's true, because bitcoin is not an interest-bearing monetary format.
I felt the same way. I think the interesting part behind it is that someone has thought of a new (philosphical) way to generate a new monetary form. Plus the technology behind it is very interesting.

Only as much as a dollar is. If you would lend someone your BC without charging interest, you'd better stick to dollars.
