Query analyzer for SQL Server 20052008

Wouldn’t you like to be able to use the Query Analyzer again? I couldn’t count the number of times people have asked for the query analyzer during SQL Server sessions at conferences or at classes. Unfortunately, it doesn’t exist anymore. Or at least not for public use! If you’ve been to sessions you might’ve seen Microsoft employees (or a single certain Microsoft employee 😉 use his own Query Analyzer.

There is a way to get it back though. I’ve heard that if enough people vote on an item in Microsoft Connect, the team can’t just ignorantly close it again. That’s why I’m writing this.

Click the above link and tell Microsoft it’s important for you to get the Query Analyzer back by rating the item.

Thanks
