>I'm spoiled by the VFP IDE and then IDE for .NET code... T-SQL is a pain to learn and code in without intellisense. How do I go about requesting (from the Microsoft SQL Server or VS.NET teams) that intellisense be added to either the SQL Server 2005 or VS.NET 2005 editors?

Hey Evan, Intellisense is for wimps!

You know you will always be a SQL Server DBA when:

* OOP still has a ways to go before it is a "proven" paradigm.
* You uninstall Enterprise Manager on a client's workstations without thinking twice.
* The performance penalty for UDFs doesn't matter because why the heck would anyone waste time writing a function when you can simply copy-and-paste the code?
* You don't know what an Exception is.
* You think a linked list has something to do with a linked server
* You are still jealous of the money that COBOL programmers made in 1999.
* You defragment your recipe cards.
* You leave 2 of every 3 rolodex cards blank in case you meet new people.
* Your business card contains the word "terabyte".
* Instead of drinking, you become fixated on the beer taps that are not in alphabetical order.
* You think that output parameters are the greatest thing since sliced bread.
* You get mad that Sybase still has 13 clients.
