Add custom toolbar to SSMS

    Hi all

     

    I'm fairly certain I've done this before but can't figure it out.....

     

    99% of our work is in SSMS.

    We do, however, use a couple of PowerShell scripts and it's getting annoying to have to go to the scripts and run them outside of SSMS.

    I want to add a custom toolbar with External Commands to run the PowerShell scripts.

    I can add the external commands easily enough but, when I try adding the path/filename of the PS script, SSMS says it's not a valid executable.

     

    Anyone any ideas on to do this one?

     

    TIA

     

    Richard

    likely you doing it incorrectly.

     

    following works fine with SSMS 19.0.

    where contents of the script is just a straight "gci c:\"

    That's it!!!

     

    Thank you.

     

    And I've now got them on a specific toolbar (it's just a bit weird that you still have to refer to them as External Command 1, etc even when you've specifically named them).
