    <p>This is some weird behavior...</p> <p>Whenever I script certain tables (using CREATE TO...) or edit stored procedures (using modify in the right click context menu) I sometimes get really weird results... For example, scripting most tables gives me: </p> <pre><code>CREATE TABLE [dbo.].[TableINeverAskedFor] ... CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TableIWant]( [ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [Name] [nvarchar](128) NOT NULL, [ModuleID] [int] NOT NULL, [OtherInfo] [int] NOT NULL, CONSTRAINT [PK_ModuleDefinitions] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED CREATE TABLE [dbo.].[TableINeverAskedFor] ... ALTER TABLE [dbo].[TableWhichHasNothingToDoWithMyTable] ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_WhyDoesThisHappen?] DEFAULT ((0)) FOR [ID] </code></pre> <p>Stored procedures are even more weird... the bigger the sotred procedure, the more alter scripts I get, just like above. It's really annoying and I am afraid I'm going to do something stupid and not pay attention one day.</p> <p>Relevant info:</p> <ul> <li>I have SQL Server 2008 R2 installed, a new install.</li> <li>I have a few developers in my shop experiencing similar problems. </li> <li>I also have a SQL Server 2008 box (no R2) doing the same thing. </li> <li>My instance is updated with SP1 and theirs aren't. </li> <li>We can also replicate the issue on multiple databases.</li> <li>Our production server is not giving us the same issue.</li> <li>Some stored procedures and tables don't have this problem however the same stored procedures and tables can be replicated. It's not a random issue.</li> <li>I have no plugins installed.</li> </ul> <p>EDIT: It's not that weird... I can see it being useful for table creation. Editing a stored procedure though, that was what was very confusing to me. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
