it would seem that you may look forward to the ever upgrade path from M$. while there are current purchasable apps you can get for Sql Server such as Sql Prompt (2.0 free or 3.0purchase) that provide intellisense and really help speed up much of the syntax building process there are also other tools from similar vendors that will help with syntax problems etc. The follow up upgrade to sql server, that is SqlServer 2008 will provide a lot of really cool tools such as intellisense, and the ability to run the same script accross multiple servers etc. neat stuff, along w/ things like db comrpession etc. Until then, I think the community has been helpful, and so long as we all try to stay ontopic we can avoid another rant gone wrong. -- Francisco On Thu, Mar 27, 2008 at 10:16 AM, jwcolby <jwcolby at colbyconsulting.com> wrote: > Much of my frustrations come from switching from a development environment > like .Net or > Access to the query editor in SQL Server.
