Add the Create Table Option when exporting to SQL
I've managed to RegEx parse the log4net file but now want to push them into SQL. Can the properties option include "create the table" for me because I'm getting
'SQL table column "Message" data type is not compatible with SELECT clause item "Message" (type STRING) [Data supplied is of wrong type.] '
select DateTime, LogType, Message, Exception
into ProdLogs
from '\server\logfile.log'

Show the Log Parser command line with all the parameters set in the UI.
Showing the command line with all the parameters used, we could execute directly from the command line and avoid the resource (CPU, memory...) used by LPL.

Allow to type in multiple SQL querys into query editor
Allow you to put in multiple SQL / Log querys in a single query window.
Right now it's very limiting to only allow one SQL statement per query window.
I generally have a "scratch" pad which is just a text document that has common querys for a particular set of tasks all within one query document. THis is preferred to having 10 querys all in seperate files as the 10 querys build upon themselves for analysis, they are not mutually exclusive.
You should be able to highlight text in query window and press F5 to run the SELECTED query like…
5 votesIn Log Parser Lizard version 5.0 new keywords are introduced to merge, join, group queries (these can be very useful since the merged datasets can be used in Dashboards and Reports):
GO – create tables in single dataset without relation (useful in dashboard and reports)
MERGE – merge tables in one
LPL_UNION – same as MERGE
LPL_INTERSECT – intersection of two tables
LPL_PRODUCT – product of two tables
RELATION_ON_FIRST_COLUMN – create tables in single dataset and try to create a relation on first column (must be of same data type)
RELATION_ON_SAME_COLUMNS – create tables in single dataset and try to create a relation on all columns with same name
JOIN_ON_FIRST_COLUMN – joins results of two tables in another one on the first column
JOIN_ON_SAME_COLUMNS – joins tables on the columns with the same name -
Excel style pivot grid
When it comes to data mining and multi-dimensional analysis, an advanced and feature complete pivot table provides users unrivaled insights into daily operations. However, using the pivot capabilities of products like MS Excel meant introducing "out-of-process" solution within application. It would be nice to have pivot grid (OLAP grid) functionality built into Log Parser Lizard.

Add an option to choose which tile is the origin of downloaded map
Many of the programs I use require that any downloaded tileset has its origin (Tile_0x0.png) in the southwest corner. UMD names tiles in a North to South arrangement before moving East for the next column.
I think it would be useful to have a dialogue that allows a user to choose which order the naming convention applies to the tiles that are downloaded. For instance today I had to rename 8134 files to align properly as X-Plane scenery, and even with a batch tool it took 4 hours due to the tool not catering for renaming a grid tileset so…

setup a grid overlay
A quick fix for not being able to combine large areas would be if you could make it easy to overlay a grid on the map so I can see which areas I have combined and can move to the next area which is as big as I can get and still combine. I am combining the maps into larger ones in photoshop

The world files seem to be incorrect
I'm having troubles with the world files (.pgw) being generated by Ultimate Maps Downloader. I don't know what is wrong but the world file units seem to be about 5 orders of magnitude too small and the returned aspect ratio of the map is also wrong.
Anyone else having problems?3 votes -
From the query editor's ToolBar Allow Execute Query
From the toolbar that has the undo/redo, copy,paste,delete add an execute button there. I find that I having to o back to the ribbon's query button and then sometimes the ribbon is on another tab so I have to switch this first is a real pain and slows me down.

Allow Automatic Refresh
Have some way to configure a time period where the data is pulled from the data source automatically at some interval (in seconds). For example, lets say I am querying a SQL table called eventLogs and there are multiple writers adding events into this table. I would like to see an updated view.

How can I store changed column properties with my queries?
When I run a query against any type of logfile using the GUI, I can afterwards right-click on the column and change column properties. For instance, by default the value "0" (zero) is not shown, which is annoying, so I set the format string to "0.###", as opposed to the default #.### for numeric columns.
But when I run the query again, edited or not, these properties disappear and I have to go there again, which is very annoying and in the end makes it rather useless to use these properties.
I don't see any save-button in the properties window,…
3 votesThis is done in Log Parser Lizard version 5.1.2. Now you can save column properties in query by checking the ‘Save data grid layout’ check box in the Save Query dialog box.
