Wow, that’s a change that I actually hadn’t noticed myself. I guess I never read what’s on those tabs

I understand your problem, but unfortunately I’m not aware of any setting that impacts what’s displayed there, sorry…

Thanks a lot .Its so irritating when you cannot use shortcuts .
I am not sure if anyone addressed this change on 2008 but I guess it helps to show the server name on the tabs like in SQL Sever 2005

For example in 2005 when you open multiple new query pages it would show the server information on the tabs like servername.databasename.query1.sql

But in 2008 the tabs open up as query1.sql-servername.databasename

If you have some 10 tabs open then at a glance its really hard to find out which query is running on which server so the 2005 naming was easy .

Is there any way that we can customize this option ?
