Alternatives to SQL Prompt for SQL Server 2005?

I'm trying to wean myself from Redgate's SQL Prompt, because now I have a low budget and I can not afford to go from 4 to 5. I did not find anything like SQL Server 2005.

Should I just save money or did someone find a better tool or way of living without intellisense functions?

Database.NET is basic, but pretty decent:

Free for personal use, a commercial license for $ 19 and works with SQL Server, Access (for which I use it when I have to work with Access databases) and several others.

You can try out the free SSMS and VS add-in, ApexSQL Complete

ApexSQL Complete provides scanned and syntactic checks and many code autofill functions (contextual predictions of keywords, users, objects, autocomplete aliases, the parameter for automatically setting the parameters of the Insert procedure, the Insert full INSERT option, etc.)

For code refactoring, you can use ApexSQL Refactor , as well as a free add-on

Disclaimer: I work for ApexSQL as a support engineer

DevArt has a similar SQL Complete tool that seems to support SQL Server 2005 and even offers a free version of Express.
