SQL Server 2008 - Go From Select to Edit Quickly

Question

In server management studio 2008 you can right mouse click on a table and then hit the select the first 1000 rows. Is there a button or a quick way to edit one of the returned rows instead of having to right mouse click on the table again and click edit first 200 rows.

Answer 1

On my system I can click on edit top 200 rows immediately (no initial select first 1000 required).

If you need to choose Which row, you can click on the SQL toolbar button to edit your query.

Answer 2

In Options - SQL Server Object Explorer, Commands you can edit the Values for the

Edit Top Rows command

Select Top Rows command

You could change the edit to be 1000 rows instead of 200
