Gerard,

If you don't see the tab, check your view menu. The tab (for me, anyway) is hidden on the extreme left. It's with the toolbox (or whatever it's called) tab. Sorry, I'm at work, and I only have VS at home so I'm working from memory.

>>AS long as you have VS.Net on your system, you can bring it up and go to the server tab where you have all kinds of access to update tables, stored procs etc.
