• Never mind the features, why is SQL Management Studio so pathetically slow!

    Even if you put the -nosplash switch on the SQLWB.EXE it takes an age to load.

    There are bits I like, or there would be if I could get to them before the next ice age.

    How the hell do you show the contents of a system stored procedure? I know sp_helptext but there MUST be a better way than that!
