I Am Sooooo Close To Configuring SQL Management Studio (SQL-MS) To Do What I Want

Using the External Tools item under the Tools menubar, I can create "calls" to custom BAT files where, using utilities like 'sqlcmd', I can do just about anything I want.

I can also create a custom menubar in SQL-MS and I can associate each of those External Tools "calls" to individual buttons on my custom menubar.

So, for common activities, I can just push a button and this custom action will be executed while I am sitting in the SQL-MS.

That is great ! ! !

Now, one of the features of the External Tools allows me to pass arguments to those called BAT files.

I'd like to send, to my called BAT file, the currently-selected object on the Summary sheet of the SQL-MS (or the Object Explorer). The External Tools functionality currently has a list of SQL-MS environment supplied values (I'll call them "tokens") centered upon values in the current query window. But I do not see any tokens that refer to the Summary sheet (or the Object Explorer).

Does anyone know how I might be able to refer to the currently selected object in either the Summary sheet, or the Object Explorer? I would also need the currently selected database and server.

If I could make those references, I could set-up SQL-MS just the way I want it, without having to be a heavy-duty programmer.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
