Getting the grid back

Yes, the documentation does say CTRL + Shift + D however, as far as I can tell, this does nothing when using SSMS 2012. CTRL + D does change the output to grid - when the query is next executed. Also, if you go to the menu "Query-->Results To" it shows you the keyboard shortcut for "Results to Grid" which is "Ctrl+D"
When I use CTRL + Shift + D on its own in SSMS 2014, nothing happens because SSMS is waiting for the second key of a chord (in the status line at the bottom of the screen you get the message "(Ctrl+Shift+D) was pressed. Waiting for second key of chord...".

I believe there is a problem with the documentation and in this case the question was meant for 2014 instead of 2012 as the question states. I answered for 2012 and discovered I was wrong though CTRL+D is accurate in 2012 and does work.
In SSMS 2014, if I use CTRL+D, it will toggle me from text output to grid output. CTRL+Shift+D does nothing for me. I think this is another one of those opportunities for a connect item with MS.

Am I the only one who thought the question was worded a bit strange?
However you would not like to get the results back in a grid
Anyway, as stated above, the "correct" answer is clearly incorrect.

Tried on 2012, Ctrl+D toggles between text and grid output, Ctrl+Shift+D does nothing with me.
Lost one valuable point...

I always thought (and have found it to work in all version of SSMS I've used) CTRL+R toggles showing / hiding the results.

CTRL+T - for text
CTRL+D - for grid

I also thought the wording was strange, in fact I thought the "not" was there by accident. Which was supported by the title of the question "Getting the grid back". So I choose for the least wrong option.

Easy one, thanks.You have the only working copy of SQL Server 2012 where CTRL+SHIFT+D actually does something?

If you have results to text and you WOULD NOT want them back to grid, the best answer is DO NOTHING... and it will stay as is.
Definitely, that negative did not help, and I agree with others as BOL is wrong... tool tip text over the button itself stays Ctrl+D.

Maybe he's running SQL Server 2012 QOTD Edition? 😉
