Enterprise Manager - Default View
-
Does anyone know of a way to change the default view for servers and databases in Enterprise Manager to taskpad rather than Large Icons?

If you change each DB, it should get saved fo the next time.

In most cases this is true, unless EM decides otherwise and resets itself.
However, I haven't found out yet where this information is stored.

Frank, That's what I'm finding out as well. We have over 30 SQL2000 servers each with a number of databases. I am trying to change to taskpad view whenever I go into a server or database. After changing a number of servers and databases, Enterprise Manager seems to revert to the default view of large icons.

Yes, it's magic!
In the past there were some issues with taskpad view.
That was the time I decided to use EM only when necessary.

I think taskpad view is perfect - if only it worked properly all the time. Half the time when I click on the database name in the object browser I get an error dialog like this...
An error has occurred in the script on this page
Line: 307
Char: 2
Error: Unspecified error
Code: 0
URL: res://C:\Program%Files\Microsoft%20 etc.blah.blah.blah./tabs.html
If I then select large icons then taskpad, it works OK. This is really frustrating - is there anything I can do?

Sorry, I guess nothing you really want to hear, but I had the same problems.
I have a mixture of german and english SQL installation here, and I bet it must have something to do with the installation sequence, because the first time I had the same problem like you. But the second time (a totally new installation) I haven't encountered this problems yet.
Knock on wood.
