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/feedback/default.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.
