CSV Paste is a simple SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) extension for speeding up the process of pasting values copied from the SSMS Results window.

SQL users occasionally check the details for records in the database having only the ids for those records. This is common when debugging an application and usually the user needs to check the data from a few connected tables to find out the problem. To achieve this, the user usually runs multiple queries in quick succession. He queries a table, sees the output in the Results window, copies a list of foreign keys and then queries the foreign key table to see the records in that one. CSV Paste is an extension trying to speed up the process by removing the nuisance of formatting the data copied from the Results window when pasting it into the next query’s IN clause.
