Hi Dorris,

I remember reading some time back a similar complain about another version in MSDN forum. Did you try to disable Intellisense (if there is an option)?

Also, are you connecting to local DB or remote?

My suggestion to you would be to try asking this question in MSDN SQL Server forums (probably Setup & Upgrade), there are lots of real experts hanging in these forums that would know the answer or you'll get attention from MS people.

If you post there, can you please post here the link for the reference?

Thanks.
