I'm working with IntelliJ 2017. I want to set the SQL dialect for an sql file. After I created the file, there is a message at the top saying the SQL dialect for the file is not set. When I click on the "Change Dialect to.." link, it opens an SQL Dialects menu. On the right, there is a pulldown link to select the dialect, but the pull down menu is empty. I went into Preferences > Languages and Frameworks > SQL Dialects to try to add some, but that menu is also empty and I can't seem to modify any of the fields.
How do I add SQL dialects to IntelliJ, so I can select one for this file? Below is a photo of the menu I get when I select "Change Dialect to..." in the sql file
Below is a photo of the menu I get from Perferences > Languages and Frameworks > SQL Dialects. I can't edit any of the fields.
Database tools and SQLUltimateThe database management functionality in IntelliJ IDEA is supported by the Database tools and SQL plugin. The Database tools and SQL plugin provides support of all the features that are available in DataGrip, the standalone database management environment for developers.
The SQL dialect, derived from the Structured Query Language, uses human-readable expressions to define query statements. Use a SQL query statement with the following ADSI search interfaces: The ActiveX Data Object (ADO) interfaces, which are Automation interfaces that use OLE DB.
Open the Project tool window (View | Tool Windows | Project) and double-click an SQL file. Click the statement that you want to execute.
Open settings by pressing Ctrl+Alt+S and navigate to Editor | Code Style | SQL. Expand the SQL node and select a dialect. Select all the necessary code style settings on the available tabs. Click Apply. When you apply the rule, IntelliJ IDEA updates the SQL code and highlights all modified parts in the Preview pane.

By default, the SQL console dialect is defined by a data source that is attached to the console. Right-click the editing area of the input pane, select Change Dialect, and select Generic SQL. The Generic SQL dialect supports completion and highlighting for SQL keywords, table and column names.
