[dba-SQLServer] Being helpful

I can appreciate that.  However as one who writes code in SQL Server very
rarely, spending the bucks just doesn't seem to make sense for me, even less
so if similar functionality may be available in SQL Server 2008. 

I have downloaded the 2.0 version and will play with that.

Thanks,

Having said this, and having used both 2.0 and 3.0... I really prefer 3.0 it
is a very robust and very helpful tool.  Not to mention it is lightning
fast, it does a much better job of caching and updating as you add new
objects to the database.  in 2.0 the only way to see your new objects was to
manually refresh the cache for 2.0, in 3.0 this seems to have been taken
care of in the background for you.
