Microsoft get a clue. Trying listening once in a while.Hi JJ,
It would help if you actually list things you dislike instead of just
ranting it doesn't do very much for your credibility, you simply come across
as probably one of those anti-MS whatever they do people - aka the linux
fanbregade.
I agree there are aspects of Management Studio that I dislike but those are
being addressed by Microsoft and believe those guys do listen to what WE as
the people who use the tools and product need.
So, lets try again - please list aspects of MAnagement Studio you dislike.

Management Studio is definitely not the part of SQL 2005 that I am most
impressed by. There are some nice improvements from Query Analyzer, but
there are too many features that have been dropped from the old tools.
If you go http://connect.microsoft.com/feedba...aspx?SiteID=68
you can submit suggestions for improvements. Such suggestions would
have to be a little more nuanced than "get a clue" to be meaningful. :-)
I would also encourage you to search among the existing bugs. There
are already plenty of entries for Mgmt Studio filed. And fact is,
MS have been listening. It looks that some of the issues will be
mended by SP2 already.

Enterprise Manager with this one. I used it for both SQL 2005 and SQL
2000; they are fine. Except one thing though; if I edit a table, the
default column has to be filled in; otherwise it will be filled with
NULL, eventhough the table is defined as NOT NULL DEFAULT something;
