Workaround(s)
When I open a Solution and connect using the Connection defined in my Project, the Object Explorer does not list the objects in that connection.

Proposed Solution

I want to have all my server/database objects listed on the Object Explorer when I connected to the server via my solution's Connection. I have already defined what server to connect to in the Connection item in my Solution, why do I have to manually do another connection in the Object Explorer?

If the Connection is opened via the Solution [Explorer], the Object Explorer should automatically list all my objects from the data source defined in my Solution/Project.

Primary Benefit

Improved User Interface

Other Benefits

 

Virtualization

Hi!, thanks for writing in to Microsoft and providing this great suggestion.

We took a look at this request recently and triaged it against several others and unfortunately, it did not meet the bar to be fixed. While we are closing this issue as 'won't fix', we have taken note of this internally and we will try & incorporate this request when we revisit this functionality in a future release of SSMS.

Regards,
Sanjay Nagamangalam, SQL Server Manageability
