QA results window - how do I remove it?

  • Hi,

    In 2005 Management Studio I run a query and see the results in a newly created window pane under my query window.

    How do I get rid of the results window so I can maximise the working script window??? I don't want it removing permanently - obviously it's needed to view results but I would like to use the space while working on a script.

    I'm sure I'm being stupid but everyone I've asked so far doesn't know how to remove this.

    Please help!

  • Joe,

    either use CTRL+ R or add the Show/Hide results button to your toolbar. You find it under Tools\Customize in the Windows categorie.

  • HI There,

     

    Another way to work is have the results displyed in there own screen.

     

    Click on the Query file opion -> Query Options -> Results -> on this screen there is a tick option to display results in another tab.

     

    thanks

  • FYI: The Query menu option only works for the window you're currently working in.  If you want a more permanent solution that sticks with every window, go to Tools -> Options -> Query Results -> SQL Server.

    In Results to Grid and Results to Text, there is each an option to "Display results in a separate tab".  Check those boxes and you should be good to go.
