SQL Server Management Studio Keyboard Shortcuts

Hi Friends,

SQL Server Management Studio offers a wide variety of Keyboard Shortcuts. By default, it uses the Standard scheme, with keyboard shortcuts based on Microsoft Visual Studio. A second scheme, called SQL Server 2000, closely resembles the tools from SQL Server 2000, in particular the keyboard shortcuts from the Query Analyzer. In a few cases, SQL Server Management Studio cannot offer the keyboard shortcuts from Query Analyzer. To change the keyboard scheme or add additional keyboard shortcuts, on the Tools menu, click Options. Select the desired keyboard scheme on the Environment, Keyboard page.

Microsoft has provided a complete Bible of Keyboard Shortcuts @ http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174205.aspx
