Chris,

OK, I get a lot of garbage when I try to open that file. To be honest, I've never done much with the Server Explorer, and so I don't really know what good saving this "query" is supposed to do ... but my question to you is what exactly are you trying to accomplish? There may be other ways of doing it.
