I finally got a chance to install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Beta 2 (formerly Yukon) the other day so that I could do some forward compatibility tests on the new XML data type for a project we're currently working on.
I fired up the new Query Analyser (now simply called 'new Query' in the Management Studio) and ran the create scripts for a relatively large database.
First port of call, let's see if they've enhanced (fixed) database diagramming, especially the printing options as I always find when working with large database schemas that it's a great help to print out the entire schema and stick it up on the wall.
Maybe Microsoft's Product Unit Manager for SQL Server Tools Euan Garden is playing a big joke on everyone or maybe he's just being very very clever here with Beta 2 because while looking for the database diagram he got me to experience nearly every nook and cranny of the entire application, learned a lot but found no sign of a diagram. Then Euan got to me do a full search of the new help system... very nice but still no mention of a diagram.
Google finally came to the rescue and I found this info on Marc LaFleur's blog.
The 'Diagram' is GONE...
[UPDATE: It appears that all the negative feedback regarding the removal of diagramming in SQL Server 2005 has paid off. The VS Data team have come to their senses and have blogged about the diagram's return here.]
