I'm wondering if it's possible to display a column description as part of the mouseover box that displays in the query builder > database view. I see it will display things like the table and datatype, but it dosen't seem to display MS_Description. Is there a way to get to display this data, or a way to build the datasource so the data is displayed? Alternativly do other data sources (such as SSAS) allow for descriptions to be shown if SQL sources do not?

Hi, As you posted, currently it only displays the table name and data type. Since your requirement is related to concept of product design, I would recommend you submit your suggestion at http://connect.microsoft.com/sqlserver/.
