I've accidentally done something to my install of Management Studio that is making query editing very difficult. I must have used a weird key combination to enable some feature that is now opening an Intellisense like window with suggested keywords or column names. I've tried every option I can find to disable this and even tried all the <ctrl> key combinations from A-Z to try to turn this off. How to have the editor revert to the "default" behavior as installed?
I've received several replies about disabling Intellisense or changing the Intellisense options and I've already done this to no effect. I've also not installed any 3rd party tools. I was editing queries when the problem began and I think I had hit a <ctrl> or <alt> key combination key that started this problem.
I use the SQL Compact Edition 3.1 as database for a desktop application. Everything works fine, but is it possible to edit the data (e.g. tables and views) in the SQL Server Management Studio? I can make a connection to the SQL CE database, but I can only edit the objects of a table. The option 'Open Table' as in SQL Server (2005) is not avalible? Does anybody know if it posible to edit the data with the Managementstudio (express)?
I have recently installed the SQL Server Management Studio Express but I do not find Management Tools in order to create scheduled backups and shrinking of the databases. I was under the impression that this should be included in the Management Studio. I use the SQL 2005 Express for smaller customers who run the SQL on a desktop unit. I need a way to backup the data to a server machine for backup purposes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail.
Greetings Running SQL Server 2005. The developers on the project can see and edit stored procedures from within the Visual Studio IDE (via Server Explorer) but when they connect through management studio, the stored procedures do not show up at all.
Is there a seperate security setting specifically for management studio?
The user has:
The dbCreator Server Role
Is mapped to the development database as dbo with datareader/datawriter/db owner/public role Is mapped to master reader/writer/public Is mapped to model reader/writer public Is mapped to msdb reader/writer public Is mapped to tempdb reader/writer publuc
This is probably more security than the user needs, but was grasping at straws to let them edit stored procedures...
Hi, I am an novice to SQL field, seeking for tools or add-ing to enchance sql studio management, especially for code completion and real-time prompt of erroneous syntax. More concretely, could you kindly list great third-party tools you have used, and feel worth evaluating. Reagrds, Ricky/
This is not the first install for me but i've noticed that after installing sql server standard 2005 and then i put on sp2 i cannot find my management studio. i don't think that is was ever installed although i did choose to install it. now when i try to install the tools i'm getting the error that they already exist. arghhhh... ? I've looke to uninstall them through the "add or remove programs" but thats a no-go. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks.
(just to add to this my sql database resides on another server so I copied the contents of the dvd over to the server)
I just installed Management Studio 2016 CP1. Unfortunately, the Database Diagrams branch does not show-up when I expand the individual databases in Object Explorer. Interestingly, they show-up in Management Studio 2008
I can see a database file in the Data folder which is used by the "sqlservr.exe" process (detected this using Process Explorer) but I cannot a see a database in the list in SQL Server Management Studio.I am sysadmin on the server (also tried with the "sa" account).tried running "USING" statement with no luck.Is there a system view which tells the relationgship between data files and databases?
After opening Management Studio and doing some editing it is possible to copy/paste things in the query editor. After a while (working in another app) I come back to Management Studio and I can't copy/paste anything anymore. If I try to copy from the results window I get an error message that the clipboard operation did not succeed. If I try to copy from the query editor window it just doesn't copy. I can copy/paste in other apps without a problem. Â It is not the clipboard getting full but I can't rule out much else.
I have SQL Server set up on a server and I can't see the Agent in Management Studio.When I check the services it says it is there and started.I have the Enterprise edition installed.it doesn't show when I am on the server itself through Management Studio, however, on my local pc, when I connect to the server through Management Studio, I can see the Agent through there and I have jobs there that run successfully and everything.Its just when I log directly on the box and load up Management Studio.
We have Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Version 10.50.2500.0.I change to "Results To Text", and "Display Results in a Separate Tab". Then I restart SQL Server Management Studio; and my settings are gone.Is there a way to save my settings?
backup database PPLicense to disk = 'D:License.bak'
I have run this 5 times. If I know run this command:
restore headeronly from disk = 'D:License.bak'
I can see 5 entries returned this all looks good. In SQL Management studio I try and restore this database by selecting the file. The Restore Database dialog only shows the last backup set position i.e. position 5 and now the 4 before it. Why is this not showing the 4 previous backups?
I am using SQL Server 2012 SP 2 (Version 11.0.3460).
I downloaded and performed a full install of SQL Server Express 2008 Nov CTP. It was installed on a fresh installation of Windows Vista Enterprise x64.
During setup, I checked the 'Client Tools' box which has the description: "Includes management and development tools: SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Profiler, and Database Engine Tuning Advisor"
The installation ran fine with no errors. After install I looked for the Management Studio but couldnt find it anywhere. No SQL Server Profiler or Database Tuning Advisor either. The only tool that appears to have installed is the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
If I check my Start Menu, the only 2008 items that exist are Microsoft SQL Server 2008 >
Configuration Tools >
SQL Server Configuration Manager SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting SQL Server Installation Center

Hopefully a simple question: Is it possible to use Maintenance Plans created on SQL Server Management Studio (installed as part of an instance of SQL Server 2005 Standard Ed.) to back up databases running on an instance of SQL Server Express Edition with Advanced Services? I don't need directions, just whether or not it is permitted.
I've been able to create the plans including establishing connections to from SSMS to the the SQL Express instance, but they keep erroring out. I just need to know if this is actually permitted since Maintenance Plans are not available on Management Studio Express Edition.

For prototyping purposes, is there a tool that reads a database's schema and generates (simple) table editor that allows manual editing of data. It would be good if the tool somehow made it easy to add foreign key values to reference data e.g. gender, status, ...I can kind of do this using Management Studios "Edit Top 200 Rows", but I was wondering if there is a more user friendly tool out there.
Is there possibility to edit easily data type "text" field using standard tools such as SQL server 2005 Management Studio or Server Explorer in Visual Studio 2005 Professional. I want multiline editing akin to multiline textbox in Windows Form. I understand that something may be written/generated in Windows Forms , but I want this possibility for any table. My pressing "Enter" to create another line for in-place editing just leaves a text cell for the tools mentioned above.
I recently upgraded my SQL Server to 2005 and instead of the Enterprise Manager I am now using SQL Server Management Studio.
Does anyone know how to turn off query formatting in views?
In enterprise manager I use to be able to double-click the view and it would open an sql editor which left the code exactly how I formatted it (space, returns etc for ease of reading). Now in Management Studio, each time I modify a view it reformats it so it become confusing to build them.
Brand new to this tool, and I am constructing a few queries. I am used tohaving a column list pop up when referencing table names in queries - thelat couple of products I used provided this feature.Is this available in the SQL Server Management studio tool - if so how?TnxGary

I'm trying to write a query with named parameters/variables in the Management Studio - New Query pane. Where should I post a question about how to create parameters/variables?
We are using SQL2005. I have a stored proc that runs a Select query based on a complex view. The sproc has two input date parameters (StartDate and EndDate). We are experiencing SQL timeout problems when the sproc is run with certain Start and End Dates. We have run the SQL Profiler and created a trace (trc) file (We've used the 'Default' trace configuration). We have used the trace file in SQL Server Management Studio to try and automatically create indexes on some of our tables. Unfortunatly SQL Server Management does not make any index recommendations. I think we are not capturing the right information in our trace file to allow SQL Server Management Studio to do its job. How do I use SQL Profiler to capture a trace of my sprocs query, so that it can be used by SQL Server Management Studio, to recommend index changes? Any help appreciated. Reagrds, Paul.

I have a problem with SQL Server Management Studio after insdtall regarding querys result showing!
Problem: I have a query i run and getting results in a grid view. But the ruslt is somehow corrupted. I guess you´d think its a sql problem but it is not. Because when i take the same query and run it in the old Query Analyzer the result is correct. For better explanation written the results below to show my problem.
we have a database hosted online on sql server 05. at work, we have a sql 2000 query analyzer on a machine, and sql 2005 management studio on a machine. both machines can connect to the database, both can pull up the data from a certain table. but there are two columns that display info in query analyzer that show up as empty on management studio. not null, just empty. any ideas why?
SELECT favorites.FID, favorites.filename, favorites.username, files.status, files.private, files.views, files.title FROM favorites INNER JOIN files ON favorites.filename = files.filename WHERE (favorites.username = @username) AND (files.status IS NULL) AND (files.private = @private)@private is manually set to 'no'@username is set to profile.usernamewhen I run the above query in microsoft sql server mgmt studio express on the database, it presents all the information i'm asking for very easily. however when i try to implement this query on a aspx .net2.0 page with teh sqldatasource and a gridview, no data is displayed.anyone know what my problem is?
Can anyone tell me if you can display line numbers in the query windowof SQL 2005 Management Studio and if so how do I go about doing it?Thanks a bunch. TFD
I can run the following query in Management Studio, but get the error listed below when I run it from the data tab in Reporting Services:

set @starttime = dateadd(hh, @timezone, @date) set @endtime = dateadd(d, 1, @starttime)
select @Starttime, @endtime from site

What I am trying to accomplish is the ability for users to select which time zone they want the data in the report to display in. To do this, I created a timezone parameter that has the offset from Central Time (which is how all data is stored in our database).
I have a project that consists of modifying a report in Crystal. The problem is that I know very little about SQL and I need to add some data items to Crystal using SQL. The guide that I was given refers to Enterprise Manager and SQL Query Analyzer but they have since upgraded to SQL Server Management Studio. Can anyone translate the following statement into SQL Server Management Studio so that I can complete this process?
Best regards,
We will now edit the View on the MS SQL server. Open Enterprise Manager and find the cst_adEnroll_MyInitials _vw in the Views section of the database. Right-click, select Copy, then go to the menu bar and Select Tools and SQL Query Analyzer. Once Query Analyzer opens: Change CREATE to ALTER before the view name.
I have a package that I was able to edit a week before. But now it is consuming all CPU memory (100%) and not letting me to edit the package (When I try to edit that it says Visual Studio Is busy even after an hour waiting).
Even though I have not changed anything, the package is behaving like this.
