Where can I change the annoying column width and add the time value to the "created" column in the SQL 2005 Object Explorer? Everytime I open or refresh the window I have to drag the column width back towards the table names so I can see which ones line up with each table. I also need the time value on the "created" column so I know which table is newest when I am building tables that have similar names. Surely Microsoft gave us a tool for making this environment useable? And how do I get the table design view to seperate the Data Type and Data Length fields so I can tab to change the length like in SQL 2000. Do they test these things with human users before they release them?
